you know you want me

so, guys... i have to say 'i told you so!'

omg, pattern-on-pattern is so-hoht-right-now!

i hate to say i told you so, but did I not tell you so? me thinks I did.

needless to say i am crazy about this trend. i have always been a fan of double ups– denim on denim, monochrome dressing and now pattern with pattern is blowing my freakin' mind.

celine resort is so damn awesome, stella mccartney is beyond words and acne, well babe, acne resort is just too damn freakin awesome.

even blasted zara is getting in on the action, but they would being the copy-cat princesses they are.

lets not get over-excited though..............scrap that LETS GET EXCITED! WOOOOOOOOOH

okay babes, my mood is too whacky right now to write anything partly sensible so i will just get on with the pics.

(by the way, when viewing the following it is advised that you sing justin bieber out loud– 'you know you want me.......'

Tattone

this little gem is rocking it's designy–ass coolness on my wrist. definitely starting a little tattoo obsession in my mind...

so funky

i wii-ish

my birthday is looming– and a rather epic one it is.

twenty sounds oh-so much older than nine-teen.

there is something almost scary about losing the -teen suffix and entering the twenties. i am not so sure i am ready to abandon my teenage years. somehow i don't think my teen-angst and mood swings will disappear so readily!

my wish list is rather wilted and lacking in substance. i am (embarrassingly) going through one of those 'i-don't-really-need-anything' stage, where I am having trouble committing to any purchases/lusty desires.

quite a strange phenomena for someone who usually cannot go a day without seeking out a new 'wantieeeee' for her ever growing list.

insta-life

obsession with the instantaneity of instagam.

such a enticing package of instant pleasure.

it sits alongside all the other quick and easy pleasures of life such as instant noodles, expresso coffee and spray on sunscreen.

The Grand Opening

Big news bebs!

I'm all stocked up and ready to go!

Yesterday I very excitedly launched my online store- Made By Gab, on Etsy!

It's here that I will be selling all my kooky creations, including the Dog coats and Funky Bike Shorts I have mentioned here.

My Zine will also be available through this store, when it is finally finished– not long now!

Head on over and check out my current listings! More exciting items soon to come!

The Doggy coats are super cute, and only $15. Fully handmade and all warm and snuggly for our doggy pals. They could even fit a cat... if you were so inclined!

Some cheeky Instagram shots...

unclaimed goods, and the trials of internet shopping

i am starting to think my little 'tulip' beauties are never going to arrive.

still haven't received confirmation from ZU about my order, yet they have taken mah moneyyyy.

the little poos.

anyway, just hoping they look as hot on my feet as they do on these lovelies!
