I'm a picky so and so when it comes to shoes. I've been wearing Ranger Army Boots since 2010 and it's a rare occasion that I put anything else on my feet. However, if my budget was unlimited, I'd be stocking up on soles from Tel Aviv based UnaUna. Their 100% handcrafted shoes and boots… Continue reading UnaUna Shoes
Based in Denmark, wife and husband team Thea and Erik are the masterminds behind Metamorph Quirky Couture. I'm currently lusting over pretty much everything that they have available in their eclectic online store. Though my heart beats particularly fast for their Feather Caplet, 3D Black Leather Epaulet, and the Feathered Art Wing Headdress. Here's what… Continue reading Metamorph Quirky Couture
I am unhealthy obsessed with Jakimac. Inspired by underground subcultures, the mission of this Los Angeles based design emporium is to redefine the accessory. They state, LOUDLY, that their handcrafted leather goods are for the bold, the wild and the unconventional, which is all you need to know really. Now check them the fuck out.
Besotted with a fair few of the pieces from Rising Tides Jewellery (isn't that name just brilliant!?) Their offerings are inspired by a wide variety of things, including the TV show Twin Peaks, Egyptian Mythology and Inuit Culture. Each piece is hand crafted and made from beautiful, high quality materials.
Bag and accessories brand Salmiak Studio is based in Finland which crafts their wares from upcycled leather, vintage leather jackets and vintage textiles. Their products are designed in such a way that they are extremely versatile, and will work well with practically any outfit.

I recall how I almost started weeping as I clicked my way through page after page… Continue reading Shades Of Silence
My favourite pieces from Gareth Pugh's 2015/16 Fall Collection.

People regularly ask why the hell I bother...and I list everything of importance that's in there: notebook, pens, reading material, water...my spiel usually quietens them down. However, I'm rarely able to find rucksacks I like in 'the… Continue reading Dressing Darkly This Summer : The Best Rucksacks
I always have a scarf on my person and it's been this way for well over a decade. I love the warmth and relief they can provide. It's like having a mini blanket for those days when you don't feel like functioning, and need something that can help to calm and soothe. Big scarves also… Continue reading Dressing Darkly This Summer : The Best Scarves
Celebrating the strange and the shadowy, the damned and unseen
