(don't) stop it right now

it's easy to forget on your daily trawl of the blogs that they are in-fact an amazing way to connect with like minded people - blogs after all are a small yet intimate glimpse into someones world, where they are willing to share their current obsessions, thoughts and beliefs. 'stop it right now' was recently introduced to us, and we were immediately smitten with her killer style, her love of ann-sofie back (coming to children of vision this season), and her dry sense of humour. after getting in contact she was lovely enough to do a little write up about the store, and my label 'jimmy d' and the new spring/summer collection due in-store in august. awwww bless!!

make sure to check out 'stop it right now' here, you'll be inspired we promise!

went up a hill...

sorry for all the next season teaser's but we had to share these beautiful pics from the super talented tommy ton from jak&jil blog fame of complexgeometries next collection due to drop february next year. the collection is amazing, and i think everyone here has ordered at least one piece for themselves... the sheet tee (top and middle pics) in particular was a personal fave!!

check out all the images here

and someone snap up the last complexgeometries dress left, before it's toooooo late!! click here!

bless! we just got a mention on one of our favourite blogs 'teen angst' - the lovely cox rated us as one of  her 5 favourite online stores from around the world (general cucumber was another, which we are rather fond of too ;-) ).

thanks! we love you too!!

coming down with the fluoro

i'm a little obsessed with fluoro's - especially in our little white cube of a store, at night the fluro's give it a cold, clinical glow which I kinda love... here's some art that makes me wanna buy about 20 more fluoro's and go crazy. from the top: neon waterfall by lauris paulus (from the awesome vvork blog), and two images of work by new zealand artist bill culbert (from sue crockford gallery)

yui and me

i've said it before, and i'll no doubt say it again, and probably a couple of time after that... but, we are lucky enough to have a great little cafe outside our store, and it's one of my simple pleasures to sit down with a flat white, a bagel, and my laptop and catch up on blogs - it's the equivalent of reading the morning papers (which I also sometimes do, but the pictures aint as pretty...) so I was stoked to come across 'a slowboat to mediocrity' by australian bred, but tokyo based gal yui. she blogs about all kinda cool stuff like rediscovering scandanavian 90's one hit wonders aqua, the amazing film paris is burning, geodesic domes, bernhard willhelm shoes, cool haircuts, and her latest fashion crushes. she also has my favourite postweiler hauber dress that just happens to be in the shop at the mo' (pictured above).

we love yui! check out her blog here.

to a tee

we love a good collaboration, and we are also huge fans of jak & jil blog - you'll find us most mornings drooling over our keyboard at their images of the most sartorially gifted people in the world often rocking the most inspirational/sexy/precarious heels around. so we were more than a little excited to see jak & jil collaborate with one of our new additions for next season complex geometries (we have several new labels which we will reveal in the lead up to next season - stay tuned!)

complex geometries signature is clever, sculptural plays on basics such as singlets and tees with tricksy pattern cutting and super clever drape and is stocked in some of the worlds best boutiques including browns focus in london and reborn in montreal.

we'll keep you posted on complex geometries deliveries but in the meantime check out complex geometries: the white tee project here

getting trashed

i enjoy my morning blogs, first coffee of the day in hand, flicking from site to site, checking out what natalie and zoe love, what isaac likes, susie's bubble AND one of my FAV's... garbage dress.

zana bayne has great style - usually shrouded in numerous layers of black, hottt leggings, bitchin' margiela shoes topped off with her trademark mass of black curls and red glasses. she lives in san francisco, but dreams of berlin, has sexy friends and is an uber talented artist and web designer. it's true, i have a little blog crush.

so, i was totally stoked to see zana rockin' pieces from berlin label postweiler hauber's new spring/summer collection recently - as pictured above... both pieces will be hanging on the racks when we open in 18 days!!!!

more on postweiler hauber soon, but in the meantime check out zana's blog, she rulzzzzzz!
