a french romance

seeing as i fail at proper romance
ive resorted to a new kind of chic love
with A.P.C.
effortless homelessness
checked splendour
eskimo kisses in hoodies
alison mosshart inspired animal print







kittens

ive never liked cats
they actually scare me because they seem so unapproachable
but last night as we walked up a back street in newtown
a little kitten came out to play with us
rolling around on the ground, playing with itself to get our attention
it worked
then it came over and started twirling itself around us
entangling itself in our limbs
and then i crouched down to pat it and it put it paws up on me
i couldnt help but embrace it
quite possible the cutest thing ever
now i love cats
well that cat
i want to go spend the rest of my stimulus money on a kitten
and maybe it will occupy me for a while
if not, when i finally move out of home we're getting one.

what a corker karen walker

barbie vs. karen walker
as part of barbie's 50th anniversary
karen walker designed a miniature collection for the pint sized star
based on KW's latest AW09 She's Cracked collection
i wish i could get my little hands on one of these barbies/outfits to dress my barbies if i still had barbies
ultimate barbie couture

sydney, eat your heart out.

everyone should read this shit
the hipster food chain is probably the best thing ive ever read

impossible.



they say all good things come to an end
but instant photography will live forever
thanks to the impossible project
they hope to reinvent and relaunch instant film
so our special memories can be captured again

kriespiel

quite possibly one of the best introductions to an album
patrick wolf never ceases to amaze
the bachelor basically lifted me out of my hopelessness

hopeful.

O Solitude! if I must with thee dwell,
Let it not be among the jumbled heap
Of murky buildings; climb with me the steep,-
Nature’s observatory - whence the dell,
Its flowery slopes, its river’s crystal swell,
May seem a span; let me thy vigils keep
’Mongst boughs pavillion’d, where the deer’s swift leap
Startles the wild bee from the fox-glove bell.
But though I’ll gladly trace these scenes with thee,
Yet the sweet converse of an innocent mind,
Whose words are images of thoughts refin’d,
Is my soul’s pleasure; and it sure must be
Almost the highest bliss of human-kind,
When to thy haunts two kindred spirits flee.

while on the topic of all things VICE
you should read this interview
the japs are crazy
but still seem kinda intelligent at thinking up these somewhat insane ideas

Dr. White



Dr. Robert J. White performed his first neurosurgery at age 15—on a frog cadaver in high school bio class. Over the next 50 years, he operated on more than 10,000 brains, one of which accounted for the most ambitious neurological experiment in history: In the 70s, he successfully transplanted the head of one monkey to the body of another. For White’s efforts, the monkey awoke from the anesthesia and tried to bite his finger off.

peaches and nerds



in the past, i was not so keen on peaches geldof
she was a spoilt little rich kid with a superstar dad
and then she dated my ultimate boy crush from the horrors
now she's kinda grown on me, a little, not much
but this article pretty much sums up the perfect boy ideal..

PEACHES GELDOF'S REVENGE OF THE NERDS
Princess Peach on the appeal of the underdog.

I HAVE A CONFESSION: I LOVE DORKS. And weirdos. And misfits. Show me a muscle-bound male model, and I will turn my head towards a bespectacled, skinny, and socially awkward boy instead. I'd take Clark Kent over Superman any day.

My first boyfriend was a total nerd. I was 14 years old and very impressed by his knowledge of comedy rap, his assortment of Scooby-Doo memorabilia, and his extensive action-figure collection. The second guy I dated had greasy, black hair, glasses so thick that they made his eyes look like fried-eggs and he possessed an unhealthy interest in biblical apocalypse theories. He could also quote lines from Home Alone at will.

As I got older, my friends were all into ruggedly good-looking jock types (the ones who looked like they could lift you up with one pinky), while I was swooning over boys who haunted the dive bars of east London. My heart would leap into my mouth every time one of those effeminate, unassuming oddballs met my open-mouthed stare. My palms would break out in a sweat when one of them ventured timidly onto the dance floor, doing a self-conscious shuffle with his gangly limbs.

I tend to pine for boys who have the shy charm of Weezer's Rivers Cuomo, the wit of Woody Allen, and the looks of Seth from The O.C. (who, with his love of comic books, won me over far more than bad boy Ryan). I prefer interesting conversation over toned biceps--there's something very appealing about a man who can overcompensate in the brain department. And these guys don't take women for granted: When you're a little wimpy and dressed in a Microsoft T-shirt, you have to work harder at getting female attention. Looks alone won't cut it, so perhaps their sweetness and computer literacy will.

I'm not alone in my love of beta males: Take Kate Moss, arguably the world's most iconic face, falling for skinny, unassuming cult-magazine editor Jefferson Hack. The slight chap fathered Kate's daughter, Lila, and is now engaged to the equally beautiful Anouk Lepere. Then there's French sex kitten Jane Birkin, who was turned on by the height-deficient, big-nosed crooner Serge Gainsbourg. And most recently, a small batttalion of gorgeous actresses has been championing the rise of rock-star geeks: Mandy Moore just wed the prince of folk-angst rock, Ryan Adams (who has a penchant for shrunken, luridly colored wool sweaters and a pageboy haircut). And Zooey Deschanel is engaged to Ben Gibbard, the tortured soul from emo warblers Death Cab for Cutie (a band any self-respecting geek must have a poster of). Natalie Portman even jumped on the bandwagon, briefly dating the musically gifted, commune-dweller look-alike, Devendra Banhart.

In the end, most of us just seem to want someone who can be self-deprecating--someone who knows his shit and isn't hiding behind a cliched macho front. Nerds are the loveable mavericks of an overbearingly masculine society that is driven by old-fashioned ideals. These Dungeons & Dragons-loving, Einstein-quoting, chunky spectacles-wearing guys are the true catches.--PEACHES GELDOF
