Deadworry Grey Seahorse Dress: charming oceanic icon

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

I think I am in love with the indie designers at Deadworry - they have my taste for oceanic creatures dialed in and have been featured on BirdFight repeatedly. Today I present their sweetly charming grey seahorse baby doll mini dress or tunic tank (how you choose to wear it is up to you). The dark grey a-line tank features a hand printed light grey seahorse graphic across the lower right hand quadrant - a large daddy and much smaller baby. Super cute! I am very charmed by seahorses and their unusual approach to life in the ocean. The mini dress is made of 100% lightweight cotton and has a very forgiving freestyle fit with gathering under the front and back square neckline. Can be washed cold with like colors and requires line drying.

Supermaggie Women’s Octopus and Waves V Neck Hoodie: cephalopod love

Monday, May 12th, 2008

Dang but this is one of the coolest hoodies I have seen for the summer. Brought to you by the indie design crew at Supermaggie, it showcases their cephalopod love and fine aesthetic sensibilities. Front and center is a large black octopus, while the back is covered with a more detailed print which includes an upside down octopus as well as multiple blue waves. The two sided, two color print really makes this v neck hoodie stand out as a fabulous find. Printed on an oatmeal colored raglan pullover hoodie and made of a unique eco-fabric which is knitted imperfectly to create a vintage look, it is machine washable. With sleeves that hit above the elbow, marsupial pockets, and a plunging v neckline it’s both cute and perfect for layering.

Women’s Earth Echelon Mary Jane’s: glossy burnished style

Sunday, May 11th, 2008

I love Earth brand shoes and covet these slick, high style mary jane’s. Featuring leather uppers and their patented negative heel technology, these shoes promote natural body alignment through wear. I like the look of these mary jane’s with the pieced together leather and bold overstitching in black. Specifically recommended for people who are on their feet all day, as the body posture created by the shoes relieves fatigue. They are available in 5 different colors, rosso calf is pictured below. Featuring an adjustable instep strap and fully padded footbed, these shoes are both comfortable and attractive. Currently on sale at Zappos.

Box Car Bag in Black: charming anthropomorphic tote bag

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

Brought to you by Loop Design, I am smitten with this cute monster faced tote bag. The bag is made of black and white pinstriped cotton, and features two different charming faces with eyes and mouths. Choose between the frowning toothy faced side (complete with removable fabric bows) or the toothless but upbeat smiling side. The tote measures 12.5 inches wide by 14.5 inches high, and 3.5 inches deep - big enough for a day bag, or perhaps a diaper bag if you are child inclined.

She-Bible Cowl Neck Dress: saucy and fashion forward

Friday, May 9th, 2008

I really like this fashion forward take on a classic dress. With a flattering a-line skirt and empire waist as well as a back tie, this is a style that is going to look good on nearly anyone, no matter what your personal attributes. Composed of a poly/viscose/lycra blend and brought to you by the indie style house of She-Bible, I had a really tough time deciding which color I liked best. Pictured below is the mauve version, but their cobalt blue is also lovely. Available in sizes XS to XL, this looks like a perfect spring dress that can be kept casual or dressed up as needed.

Oakley Women’s Travel Camo Tank: a little tough, a little sexy

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

I am a sucker for camouflage, most especially if the colors are other than traditional. This cute, long cut tank top from Oakley is a nice example of a modern camouflage in a black and grey or white and grey print - the black is pictured below. Made of 100% cotton, the Oakley logo is pretty discreet on the lower left corner and surrounded by stars. A basic ribbed women’s tank with style and a little bit of bite.

Sailor Girl Anchor Print Capris by Lucy Love: ahoy matey!

Monday, May 5th, 2008

Looking for a way to bring a little more piratical fashion to your wardrobe? Check out these cute anchor print capri pants which are currently on sale at PlasticLand. The cut and style of these navy capris were inspired by retro track pants, so they have a nice wide waistband as well as a two button faux fly. Made of 80% cotton and 20% polyester, the manufacturer warns that they run small, so you may wish to size up when ordering. Navy cropped pants with a cute all-over white anchor print - not just nautical, I say they could easily be piratical.

Colt 45- It works every time

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

I think we all know what the slogan means by “It works every time”. Colt 45 will get you laid! When you get your lady (or man) hopped up on some malt liquor you can rest assured the party is going to end with y’all bumpin’ uglies until one of you has to run into the bathroom and hork.

Vix Swimwear Kenya Bikini: tiger-licious two piece

Saturday, May 3rd, 2008

My search for the sexiest animal print swimsuit continues. This dense tiger print bikini is pretty perfect, but be prepared to pay a little extra to look so good - seems my personal taste is always expensive! The halter bandeau style top features a ring detail between the cups as well as removable padding plus side boning for a bit of structure and support. This safari print bikini top will look best on those with a smaller bust, especially once you know it ties at the back versus using a more traditional hook and eye closure. The side tie bikini bottoms offer moderate rear coverage, and have cute tassels to add a little extra pizazz to the suit. Made in Brazil of polyamide and elastane, this bikini set is fully lined and requires hand washing in cold water.

Women’s Majorette Hoody: super cute furry hood and pom poms

Thursday, May 1st, 2008

This black zip front hoody from Heatherette is a charmer. I am most smitten with the fur lined hood and puff balls, but I also like the added detailing and pink buttons which are almost hidden against the pink all over graphical print. The sweatshirt is 100% cotton, and has front marsupial pockets, as well as a ribbed hem and cuffs. Add a little fur lining to your spring wardrobe.
