GOLD BLING BLING CHAIN IN THE STYLEZZZ OF MOI
I actually have 10 of these. I found them at a sample sale and bought myself one and then thought..hmmm, others would like this. So I am selling them for $5AU each. I wore mine last night actually and EVERYONE (OK like 2 girls in the toilets) were all like 'Where did you get that from!?' So if you like, you buy yes?

How many do you want huh?

RETRO TSHIRT
I got this from a vintage store in NYC called 'Ghetto Vintage' ummmmmm, pretty sure you might get beaten up in the ghetto if you wore this. Anyway, the neck is too high on me so I have only worn it a handful of times. I LOVE the print though. Don't you? Of course you do. It's a medium and it's a fiver.

REEBOK FREESTYLES UK 5 
Worn once! Worth $150 but yours for $50. God. You could buy them and sell them on ebay for more! Crazy Kids.

SKINNY GOLD CHAIN
And then after you've bought the Reeboks and the tshirt, buy this long gold chain. It's so dope. I already have one. I wear it on the daily. Buy this one and we can consider it 'friendship necklaces' aaaahhhhhh :) love you. My friendship is for sale for 5 dolla.

YELLOW 80'S BLOUSE
This blouse is yellow.  Do you like yellow? Well then you'll like this blouse. I used to love it but now I'm not so sure. Actually, it does look kinda good with my black and white aztec leggings. Hmm....maybe I won't sell it. Well, if it's not sold by the end of the week I'm gonna remove it. 5 bucks. Or not. Whatever.

TOPSHOP MILITARY STYLE JACKET
It's a UK 12 and I am kidding myself if I think I am going to wear it again. God my tits are huge. Like seriously. Anyway, its your for 5 bucks. It has stripey lining and it's great.

YET MORE GOLD BLING
I have so much of this shit hey. O.OWL is all about the $5 bling.

ZOO YORK HOODIE
I'll miss this jumper. It comes in handy for 'Sofa Sundays'.  It's a large and it's comfy as Hell and its a FIVER.

URBAN OUTFITTERS TEE
This is an awesome fit with a wicked neckline. Makes your tits look amazing. 5 BUCKS.

CLAW MONEY TEE
Who says ladies streetwear is dead? NOT ME! That's why I'm selling this tee for $5.

PUSSY TEE
It's a tee in a size 14 with a cat on it. It's baggy and loose and looks great with ...you guessed it...leggings. How cute is the kitten? SO CUTE.  5 $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

COMME DES GARCON (ESQUE) WALLET
I fucked up and bought a fakey on eBay for like $50. Yeah I know. Who wants it for a fiver? It's a good copy I might add.

O.W.L's Armchair Trend Predictions

A NEW POWER ANIMAL IS ON THE HORIZON.
I'm not gonna be one of those irritating bitches that say, 'I liked Owls for aaaages way before anyone else did' blah blah blah. Truth is I actually don't even dig Owls that much. Most are tacky on a necklace etc. Thing is, when I was little I really hated my big ass round eyes. I yearned for the almond shaped blue peepers of the prettiest girl in my class.  So my Nan used to tell me I looked like a little Owl and that I was beautiful. (aawww) so yeah, that's the Owl story. Plus 'ol blue eyes now has 3 kids, been divorced twice and she ate all the pies. But I digress....Owls are on their way out. As are other woodland creatures.  I think the hipsters are about to get on the dinosaur bandwagon OR it's all about the African steeze like lions and zebra's and stuff. But remember, you can't claim shit. Animals are there for the taking because they are on this earth for EVERYONE.  So don't be all like, 'I used to collect hippo's in the form of jewellery and prints etc and now EVERYONE is doing' say that to the fucking African jungle dipshit. We are all entitled to commercialise and make useless crap inspired by our 4 legged friends.  I just wish someone would decide to start making a less glamorous animal cool. Like a pig or an antelope or maybe even a taking the native fauna of Australia away from the bogans and turning the kangaroo into something hipster worthy? I dunno hey, I just think we should think out of the box on this one.

AH OH...I THINK THE VANS OBSESSION IS DWINDLING.
I am about as surprised that I am starting to see more and more Chucks around the traps as I am that JLo just got divorced.  Authentics are dope, don't get me wrong but FUCK these iconic foot coverings have been gang raped to within an inch of their lives. Thanks a lot Dog Town! So those who feel as though their parade has well and truly been pissed on by the masses are now turning to Converse. Give it time before you discover your old faithful Chucks are 20 bucks more expensive and your 17 year old sibling is asking Santa for a pair next Christmas.

'TACKY' IS NOW 'TRENDY'.
Everyone is gradually trying to out do one another in the tack game. If I had a dollar for everyone that has typed '90's trends' into Google hey.  There is a whole lot of 'Remember this?!' going on. No you don't fucking remember because you were like 3 or something.  I know this sounds a bit bitchy. God, my mum must think the same thing when I became obsessed with Madonna's Immaculate Collection. And I suppose young 'uns becoming obsessed with an era they didn't have much to do with keeps it alive and what not. I get it. Ignore me, I'm just turning 30 in a few weeks and I'm feeling sensitive.

BACK TO BASICS.
You know like when you've had loads of really rich food?  Like after Chrissy when you have pigged out on a bunch of selection boxes, trifle, every kind of roasted animal you can imagine and your weight in booze? You know how after all this you just want a cheese sandwich and a cup of tea? Or the more ambitious join a gym in January and stock their fridge with mineral water and carrots?  THAT my Owlies, is because over indulging  inevitably leads to simplicity. I predict that after all this fuss with Minaj inspired multi coloured hair, narcissistic and self indulgent tumblrs and over kill on information via the interwebs is only going to breed the desire to strip things right back and get back to basics. Over use always leads to under use. Belee dat.


CLEAN SKIN.
Ye old art form of tattoo's will become less enviable than having none at all.  There are legit kids under the age of 20 walking around looking not too dis similar to their colouring books from only 5 years ago. What. The. Fuck. You will hate them one day. I swear you will. I'm not even hating! I am all about accepting other folks style and choices and not judging one's style choices because it would be boring if we all looked the same etc etc but fuck kids, chill out on the colour needle yeah? Some things are sure in life: taxes, death, heart break and you growing up and being a very different person when you are 28 from when you were 18. Anyway, my point is, is that we all strive to be different hence going under the needle in the first place. But I really think that NOT having is on the verge of becoming way 'out there' than having any at all. Ya kna?

CHICKS IN KICKS.
Yeah yeah, it's nothing new. Just remember, as a friend of mine once said: Owning 100 pairs of air max does not make you a 'sneakerhead'. It makes you a consumer.

I'm putting the kettle on, who wants in?

BUTCHDIVA SAMPLE SALE !!!

Our Lily has all grown up (sniff!)

There has always been a soft spot within me for Lil' I twas only a matter of time before one updates to a sleeker image. God, even M.I.A is banging about with Donatella Versace lately!

Miss you Lily from these days....

But you look a right peach on the front of UK's ELLE this issue...

It's weird how we need people to not progress or change in order to make ourselves feel more secure hey? Even celebrities. It definitely makes one consider what they are doing with themselves and to look into their own personal progression. I know this is all exterior, but the outside really conveys what is going on in the head and it's not always obvious.

SHOP GRAND SCHEME 

Look what I've got!

I know I'm not the most conventional girl. Allegedly. But I do enjoy warm hands during winter.  I usually roll with basic fingerless (this mani cost a lot, folk need to see it) black woolen gloves, but THEN I came across hoopla and I can deal with my fancy fingernails not being on display (I missed my appointment this week anyway)  Check them out!

That there what you are seeing are mittens in the form of an Owl vs a rat. Yup. I know...amazing. I get sent shit all the time on here, and as you well know, I'm more about talking about boys and vagina's but when things are good then they are worth speaking of.  Dude, you HAVE to check out their site hey.  Based in New York but they ship near and far and there are plenty more designs. I have more Owl paraphernalia than you can shake a stick at (what does that even mean?) but none that come as mittens. CHECK OUT HOOPLA 

AFRICAN APPAREL

I do feel that we live in a time where where we are constantly seeking the novelty factor and it's been done to death.  From the 'Keep Calm' posters to Banksy to 'ironic tumblrs' and random collabs.  But I'll be damned if I'm gonna let it interfere with me getting my hands on THIS tee by African Apparel from all the way in er...Bristol.

Screw you indie kids! I reckon 80% of you only started loving Joy Division after you watched CONTROL.
I laugh in the face of your scribbly tattoo's!

Pete from 'For the Homies'

Pete Le Chic is all in the name. Straight cut and sleek. Clothing with no mess and no fuss. Just like this post.

IN MY DREAMS ... I am a king. But there are no civilians in my castle just animals and we don't speak the same language so it's hard. Story of my fucking life.

I NEVER THOUGHT ... that music would play such a huge role in my life. I realised that I couldn't function without listening to different albums to help my energy or motivational levels throughout the day.  It's even better when you can share the experience with someone. Just lying on the floor with a girl listening to music is one of life's pleasures.

LATELY I HAVE WONDERED ... if this is it or will there be a surprise in the end?

MY ALL TIME FAVORITE ALBUM IS ... Midnight Marauders by A Tribe Called Quest

THE SEXIEST THING EVER ... is slipping off a girls dress while she is still wearing heels.

I SWEAR ... ladies who are stuck up and worrying what others think is a straight up turn off.  Looks will only get you so far but a sense of style, personality and silky hair puts a tick in my book.

ADVICE FOR THE GUYS ... Get a haircut on the regular.  A leather jacket, white tshirt, raw denim jeans and some Clarks shoes is a good wardrobe starting point.  Wear clean clothes, shave your beard, cut and clean your fingernails and get a grown mans cologne. Thats it! It's pretty easy being a guy...

ORIGINALLY ... I thought I was gonna go out there and make the best pieces possible and people would love it!  Together with high quality came high quality prices...a luxury that only some could afford. It was Melbourne's DJ's that saved me and thats a fact! For a minute there you weren't a real DJ unless you had a Homies jacket haha! That led to touring bands/artists coming to me for custom pieces. I still love doing it and I'm proud of everything I make.

THE OBNOXIOUS OWL ... makes me never want to have a daughter ha ha!

OI! I'll have you know I am a great daughter!


FOR THE HOMIES  

DirtyRich puts their own label on it

LOOK what Sarah Jane Owen has been up to!

It's about time she put her own label DirtyRich on some garms because this Sydney lass knows a thing or two...

Check it...

Not from Sydney?  Surry Hills is the hipster Mecca of the famous Australian City.  See what they did there?

KARA from Y'OH - Mens Street Wear Designer

My home girl from London is probably biting her little fingernails as we speak.  Tonight is the long awaited launch of her label Y'OH along side Kids of Grime.  Kara has one up on most mens street wear designers...as in she hasn't just screen printed someone else's design on the front of a t shirt that she copped from a bowl of rice in China. Miss Thang has comes from a high fashion background. She is a trained and experienced pattern maker and has spent nearly every waking hour not only researching her audience and finding out what they like, but absorbing the culture that surrounds the industry.  In other words baby girl got skill! In my short time on this earth I have learnt one important lesson, you cannot build a house on the sand and you cannot build success on someone else's unhappiness.  There is nothing but hard solid rock under this ladies house and everyone she comes into contact with leaves feeling a little happier. Sit up and take note and act like you know 'cause although it's only the beginning, Y'OH is already building a foundation for longevity.


WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT MEN'S FASHION?

Men are much better shoppers than women (shocked face!) they notice the subtle details and think in terms of longevity. The fact they generally have less items which they wear for longer periods of time means that men have a much more consistent look and through that they can articulate their persona a lot better than women who tend to change their style seasonally. I think it would be better if women did that…buy less and spend more on classic long lasting pieces.

Designing menswear comes more naturally to me. There's a lot more room for it develop so I guess even subtle changes can be quiet radical. For example the Y-shirt ( a cross between a shirt and a long sleeve tee) isn't crazy, in fact it's as plain as you can get, but the fact that it's not jersey makes it radical.
