pamela love

we've recently added these lovely pieces by pamela love... just in time for that bloody valentines day.

for starters.. the solid bronze human heart necklace - $320

my favorite, the vermeil peacock ring with three little saphires - $400crow rings. dudes can wear crows, so this one is perfect for getting cute with matching rings. $110and the two tiny bear heads that stare at each other all the day long. $90

incase you didn't know, pamela love is awesome. well, she seems like she'd be awesome anyways. she plays drums in an all girl band called scorpio rising AND she has a day job assisting artist francesco clemente! sounds like the perfect life.

anthem magazine recently wrote about bona drag.

yes, i did cite larry david and opening ceremony as inspirations in the same sentence.

a dress

i spotted this dress in W and again in Vogue. it makes me want to get married. the color is perfect! nina ricci "price upon request". bullshit.

i have no idea what drives you mister

on the way home from the airport, john says "i have something to tell you heather. i didn't want to tell you while you were in ny because i didn't want to ruin your trip".
"THE SILVER JEWS BROKE UP. AND THAT SHOW IN THE CAVE IS THEIR LAST SHOW EVER."

the show that i was planning on flying to this weekend in tennessee. but now my parents decided to fly in that same night. the show that is IN A CAVE. a little piece of me is dying inside. do i buy a $150 ticket (they were originally $15) on the tiny chance that something happens and my parents don't make it? yes.

Hello, my friend. Cassie and I went to the cave and it looks great. 58 degrees but the humidity makes it feel like 72. I'm just going to play fifteen songs. My fifteen favorite ones. A dollar per song. Plus Arnett Hollow. I don't want to keep you underground for too long. Fall Creek Falls State Park State Lodge is great by the way. Yes I cancelled the South American shows. I'll have to see the ABC Countries another way. I guess I am moving over to another category. Screenwriting or Muckraking. I've got to move on. Can't be like all the careerists doncha know. I'm forty two and I know what to do. I'm a writer, see? Cassie is taking it the hardest. She's a fan and a player but she sees how happy i am with the decision. I always said we would stop before we got bad. If I continue to record I might accidentally write the answer song to Shiny Happy People. What, you thought I was going to hang on to the bitter end like Marybeth Hamilton?
love david
and then he followed up with exposing to everyone his gravest secret, that this man is his father: www.bermanexposed.org
no wonder.. so many things.

my little prayer for new york

we're leaving in a few minutes to ny. what started as a business trip is turning into a big holiday. i guess we have to go back in february for business.

all orders will be shipping on monday.

and then new jewerly and possibly a new dress called renee will be added before valentines day.

the piano

i just began learning how to play, and my motivation is one of the most beautiful films of all time. the soundtrack is mind blowing.
lately i've been thinking about where i want to be when i'm old. i'm not sure about the big issues (like kids, or what city), but a couple things are definite. i want to be able to play my future baby grand piano fluently and i want to have a small harley davidson. the tough part is i have to start working hard at both visions now. bikram yoga will help me hold up a harley one day. thanks han for making me go to that first class.

bad news for all the gulus out there

judi rosen has announced that she won't be shipping her spring 09 collection that i've been patiently waiting for. after having her line made locally with love and not much profit, the entire line is now in jeopardy, and i'm really hoping it's temporary. it's such a shame that we'll never see her amazing spring designs.. it was full of floral denim, tight zipper mini dresses and flowy cut out dresses. good thing i am lucky enough to have that peacock dress in my closet. there are still some more left of her website as well as other good stuff. www.judirosenny.com. and we still have some denim left here in the shop.hope you come back soon judi.

only stone and steel accept my love

i'm straight back to listening to strictly only MORRISSEY ever since we got the secret copy of the new morrissey album. once i get the fever i just can't stop. and then john went and gave me some serious goosebumps yesterday when he showed me this new video, the best song on the whole album. it's SOOO GOOOD LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


and don't worry haters, i'll be paying for the crap out of that album once it's officially released.

she loves you for all that you're not

scarlett in that amazing agent provocateur bodysuit. it would make a great swimsuit.
her album, anywhere i lay my head, is real great. no for real, it really is.

the beginning

a new years eve portrait taken after dinner / before the bar
