studded coach bags
back in the days when i lived in loeb hall i'd always go across the street to METROPOLIS for some vintage shoppin'. half a century later, i still go there for some sweet reminiscences. when i was in new york i was there and saw they put out some vintage coach bags with studded customizations. awesome! the vintage coach bags by bonnie cashin have stand the test of time effortlessly. they kicked ass way before those margielas or celines did 
sticks & stones may break my bones
utterly bewitched by these CELINE stone key rings, i thought the green one was the love-at-first-sight, but it's actually the brown one that goes with the shit that i have
fawn
wheelthrown & handmade by SUSANNAH TISUE, these porcelain mugs are awesome. i was debating between the fawn and the mouse but the fawn goes better with my pjs, so the fawn it is. this little mug is perfect for my before-bedtime coffee. yes, i have a small cup before i go to bed, especially when it's a good one, it gives a lovely finale
anchor [ˈæŋkə]
from a pair of SHORT SHORTS to a triangle BANDANA, and from a BUCKLE BELT to an aged KEY CHAIN, y'all know my love for anything with an anchor is undying. is it because i crave for the adventures of a seafarer? oh hell no! i puke like linda blair in the exorcist whenever i travel by sea. but what anchor symbolizes is quiet poetic; it conveys positive connotations of security and stability; moreover, a harbor against cunty stormy weathers. the christians used the anchor as a hidden secret cross back in the days while they were under the persecution by the romans. and in the yesteryears, an anchor tattoo worn by sailors was a symbol for being grounded or tied down to a significant other. kate moss has a little one on her right wrist ... below are some anchor goodies i got recently and some inspirations from the 2012 fall winter menswear arena
a whistle key chain from CAT BIRD & a soap from SAVE HAVEN
a khaki blazer for this coming spring with anchors embroidery
a vintage playing card & an antique picture of a seaman
this blazer is by the japanese brand RAGEBLUE
images from the 2012 f/w collection of J.W. ANDERSON
these little embroideries can also be called critters, something from the preppy fashion heritage
a THOM BROWNE 2012 f/w catwalk image that haunts me in a hot way, just like what tate in american horror story did in season 1

"every stitch has a soul"

hot coco off
back when i was in new york, i craved for a hot coco like every frigging 4 hours. and you would assume this one, on the left, in the fancy mug from that sceney la colombe cafe on lafayette would taste like heaven. but oh helllll no, it tasted like shit. who makes a delightful heartwarming mint coco? dunkin' donut! and it's only 2.45 a pop
