I DO believe the Collective Unconscious exists

I am the rain
Held in disdain
Lotions and potions just add to my fame
The rime that in Spain
Fall on the plain
The truth is I'm ruthless I can't be contained
...
Up in the sky we've demand to supply
I am necessity, base of the recipy
I'm the rain...

Can you believe I've already finished my kinda-like-Rodarte-inspired-knitted dress?? Ahhh I'm so glad it turned out very nice and not as a waste of wool throwaway thing xD It took me about 2 weeks to knit this piece, starting at the neck and then slowly working myself down, always adding a couple of knits every new row, so that in the end it turned out REALLY FUCKIN' wide at the lowest part!
I didn't use too small needles but also not the biggest, maybe 10'' and I knitted on a round needle of course, but I knitted it in a VERY loose way, regularly losing my knits off the needle! But I managed to somehow finish it anyway, so I'm really glad!
By the way, for the real Rodarte look, you just gotta wear the dress left side out, and thus, never forget to have any threads hanging out on that side!
Next? Maybe some knitted tights? We'll see, yippeh yeah!!

The location of this photo shoot with my wonderful sister? Our parents' garden... it's such a paradise in spring when everything is in bloom and almost seems to be too much for the garden to cope with... but it's not of course! It's the most relaxing place I can think of and I enjoy relaxing there as often as time and weather allows me :)

Hey, are you really bored? I mean, really, REALLY bored? Well, I got the cure... hop over to chictopia and read my article, first one ever for the "world ugly" edition, wahouuuuuu!!

Very suitable to the just mentioned article, I bought me this pair of Ash Italia Wedges for a very agreeable price on ebay UK last night:



My bf wasn't convinced when he saw the picture, but he WILL be once he sees them in real life. They just have to be shipped here from England first of all... AND mon homme has to come here, too... mehwp!!

Why do older people always have to watch nature documentaries???

I found this cute purple vintage blazer while browsing BLOGIMARKET (a place where bloggers who sell their stuff on their own blogs gather and post their fo-sale-stuff on a blog only built for that reason!) and held it in my hands only a few days later. The colour and quality is really stunning as it is nearly pure viscose fabric and thus falls really nicely down the shoulders. BUT speaking of shoulders, as it is apparent that I do not have the intention to revive the 80s in a too purist way, I simply had to modify the width of the blazer at the shoulders AND of course remove the horrible shoulder-pads ;) But now it's perfect, I have been wearing it for the last three days, it seems almost glued on me :D

PS.: It's Orthodox easter sunday today and since my boyfriend lives in an Orthodox Christian country, happy easter to whom it may concern ;)

PPS.: Rodarte-Inspired-Knitting will be finished soooooooooooooon, wiii!!

PPPS.: The cool background for these pics is my old high-school! Oh well, good old school days... :)
