Bye Bye Agathe

Tja, jetzt ist es wohl offiziell. Die Fashion Gemeinde hat eine ihre liebsten Ikonen vorerst verloren - Agathe hat ihren Blog Style Bytes nun komplett abgeschaltet. Nach 4 Wochen Ungewissheit, Aufruhr in der Blogosphäre und waren Stalking Attacken via Myspace/Facebook etc ist es nun gewiss, dass es unserer Lieblingsnorwegerin zwar (Gott sei dank) gut zu gehen scheint, es aber nun mal ihre Art ist, dem täglichen Fashion-Trubel den Rücken zu kehren. Der Kummer ist zwar mehr als groß, waren doch ihre Outfits und Gedanken eine große tägliche Inspiration, aber letztendlich sollten wir ihre Entscheidung so, wie sie ist, respektieren, meint ihr nicht? Tschüss Agathe und grüß mir Molvin! :-)

Voi e Nessun Altro

Competition can be healthy in a relationship, especially when it comes to gift giving occasions. So for our latest anniversary (7 months!) Nic and I did our best to impress the eff out of each other, with a little help from our friends.

For those of you that read the blog, you've probably seen Nic sport a rosary or two and while he loves them dearly he was on the look out for something more. Enter Lucas Lameth of Earthtones Jewelry.

He's crafted a silver necklace with a Catholic Saint pendant, in this case, St. Nicolas. Yes, I had Nic sainted for our anniversary.
Lucas is planning to release a line of necklaces featuring more of the Saints, but Saint Nicolas is worn only by me... erm I mean him.

Some of you that know me may have heard me pining for a designer item named after, well, moi. There are a lot of amazing things on the grid bearing the name Dahlia, and while I jokingly claim they're all mine, deep in my little pixel heart I know they aren't. Lucky for me Nic was listening. He also knew exactly which designer to go to. Enter Giana Paine of GiGi Couture.

She has created not one, but an entire line of Dahlia minidresses! Ranging in styles from sailor to sparkly they really can suit every one of my moods and there is certainly something for everyone. To celebrate this launch, the ever generous Giana has offered a freebie version to her group members (the middle dress shown above). Freebie!? It can't be!? If you don't believe me, check out the hotness on Creamy over at Free*Style.
Look for the rest of the line to be released this weekend.

A BIG thank you to Lucas and Giana for making this anniversary so perfect.

Score: Tie game.

Of Ostrich Skin and Chicken Pox


A beautiful Miumiu ostrich skin satchel from Neiman Marcus

Ostrich Skin is perhaps one of the most coveted and luxurious leather and is used in many of the high-end brands including Hermès, Gucci, Fendi and Prada. Ostrich Skin handbags and boots are widely popular as there is no other exotic leather just like it.

It's easy to recognise a Ostrich Skin designer bag because of the "bumps". The Bumps are quill follicles and they only constitute a third of the whole Ostrich skin. Thus, that bumpy area is highly sought after for a high price.

Well, my Ostrich-skin encounter was somewhat different. An ostrich skin leather wallet almost landed on my lap today if it wasn't for my "fashion-unconcious" partner. I woke up early to bid for an Ostrich-skin wallet which was on my watch list for days. That crucial moment arrived and I asked what did he think of it.

A crude and straightforward reply: "It looked like chicken pox on a diseased lion" 

Being an imaginative person, I looked back at the auction and immediately SAW HIS POINT OF VIEW. Of course, I gave up the bid. I still think that the ostrich leathergoods are highly coveted and luxurious, but I guess I can never look at one in the same way again.

A lesson for ladyhood: Never ever ask "fashion-unconcious" men on opinions during shopping, that's what best girl and gay friends are for. Buy what you love and perhaps suffer the consequences later. :D If not, you may get the answer which might change your shopping behaviour forever.

Still learning my lesson,
Jooli :D
