Trinkets, Props & Collecting Lots...

The last few months have been crazy busy, we've hardly had time to post. We've been scavenging, making, collecting & hoarding for the new Uneeka shop which is finally opening on Fri.

We've found ourselves in some funny places, thanks to Mummies, Badgers, Brothers and friends for all the help and fun along the way.

Lush, interior styling inspiration

Inspired Etc...

I've just been reading an amazing new book called Etcetara by Sydney born stylist Sibella Court.

There are few books in the world as lovely as this. Etcetera is the biblio equivalent of pottering around a junk shop you’ve stumbled across in a back alley of Paris – there’s so much to see, and so much to inspire. Court is a creative curator with a magpie eye – her home and styled shots reflect her passion for colour, texture and fascinating ‘objets’.

She throws together unexpected and wonderful ingredients from the past and the present to create beautiful interiors where every object tells a story.

Masked Ball

The Masked Ball has snuck up on us this year and us shapes are in a dilema about what to wear; 3 days to go and still no outfit in sight! We've been having a look on the net for inspiration....

Vice Style

VICE has just launched Vicestyle.com (with the help of my friend Dylan) their new online fashion and lifestyle platform that features fashion shoots, videos and exclusive insights into the back rooms of fashions makers and creators. With 30 connected editorial departments from all over the world you'll get daily news directly from the scene. As you might already expect from VICE the coverage is not only restricted to the major fashion cities but also shows scenes and currents away from the popular fashion consensus.

The website will also feature exclusive stuff by well-known figures of the international fashion scene like Terry Richardson, Ryan McGinley, Chloe Sevigny or Gavin Watson.

There's some lush photography and videos, a definite go to for a sharp, inspiring take on fashion...

Black and White

If all else fails, black and white is always a winner...

Good ol' grandad

Grandad cardigans are becoming a staple in my wardobe, I love them, in fact my gran is about to knit me a new one.

Purple Fashion Magazine

Purple is my favourite colour, even more so when it comes in the form of a french fashion art and culture magazine...featuring photography by Terry Richardson and an artist book free with each issue, you can buy it online or at American Apparel. 

Weekend Get Up

Supermarket Sarah presents Paternity - These bold patterned clothes and accessories by Anna Murray and Grace Winteringham are a little bit special, I feel a purchase coming on...

If only we had a big outdoor party event to dress up for in May...hmm

Cassette Playa AW1011 - Augmented Reality

I was fortunate enough to get up to London Fashion Week this year and was really keen to check out the Cassette Playa show over at Somerset House.

For the presentation of Carri Munden’s N E U R O M A N C E collection, she employs augmented reality to further accentuate her futuristic themes. Each model entered the world of augmented reality which allowed them to interact between both physical and virtual worlds. 'Augmented reality (AR) is a term for a live direct or indirect view of a physical real-world environment whose elements are merged with (or augmented by) virtual computer-generated imagery - creating a mixed reality'

Neuromance is a capsule collection of Industrial, and mediEVIL references. Thrash, Death + Black metal imagery. Digital printed silk detailing and embroidered patches, feature on L/S tees, Melton wool Tailoring, zip up hooded tops and cropped nappa leather bombers. The range also includes assault vests with neoprene pocket details, graphic tees with CGI blood and chrome with glow in the dark screen prints.

Alexander McQueen

Fashion legend Alexander McQueen tragically died yesterday, his show stopping outfits and show stopping shows will be sorely missed.
