A miniature capsule of enchanting fixations.
Lately photography blogs and sites have been inspiring me left and right. Voila, another Collage is born. The Ashish for Topshop platforms, dead center, would easily feed my Chanel clog cravings (come Spring) in one fell swoop.
Crochet, Abbey Lee, Natalia Vodianova, haute couture fashion shows, Givenchy, Charlotte Lohmann, balloons, pretty pictures of landscapes, sandals strapped in rainbow hues, Long hair, Dolce and Gabbana footwear, pastel purples, cut offs and blazers, stacked heels, Picasso unbound, extra smokey Halloween eyes, graffiti tights and leggings, Sasha Pivovarova, confetti coats, turquoise accents, red lipstick and polka dots.
Unicorns may be mythical yet they still possess the kind of magic I seem to crave in fashion editorials, haute couture, decadent designs and my imagination, all displayed above. I also think I'm on an extreme platform shoe kick; I just want to keep the train going. Platforms may be a thing of the past, but I will never stop lusting after them.

"In one of his notebooks, Leonardo Da Vinci, wrote: The unicorn through its intemperance and not knowing how to control itself, for the love it bares to its fair maidens. Forgets its ferocity and wildness and laying aside all fear will go up to a seated damsel and go to sleep in it's lap...and thus the hunters take it."
At least that is how this song starts: I Love Unicorns by Carnie Jerkwater
You should give it a listen: http://hypem.com/#/track/1027153/Carnie+Jerkwater+-+I+Love+Unicorns+
I'm obsessed.
LOVE the post title. I remember being obsessed with unicorns as a little girl :)
And I feel you on the platforms. Lately I find that normal soled heels just don't feel right anymore...
I heart your collage, as always. Are they very hard/time consuming to learn to do on the computer? I'd love to be able to do them!
I'm such a big kid, I do mine the old fashioned way - I buy canvases and glue away *blushes*
Hope you're having a lovely start to Feb - Valentines Day soon, hooray! That's a day for unicorns if ever there was one :)

At the bottom, where it says, "READ" click that and it should take you somewhere else then find the link that says 'I Love Unicorns by Carnie Jerkwater' or something of the sort but instead of clicking the link-right click and do 'save link as...' (I have a pc, if you have a mac it might say something different but should be in that sort of wording.) and then you can just save it and upload it to itunes :)
hope that wasn't confusing xx
Great inspiration pics! Love the eye makeup smeared on the model front and center. I'm def. feeling the whimsical vibe!
xo, becs

I agree, mystical :) and edgy.

bisous,
la c.
what great wedges in your collage. love the weave on the wedge.
I like it when you write : )
this is such a good and magical post! i really like it!
unicorns are so beautiful! it immediatly makes me think of other magical creatures, like fairies.
i definitly agree with you that there should be a element of magic in fashion, it just makes it more fun!

xx
by far best collage!!!
i've always love unicorn ever since i was little..like you said..somehow you think they really exist..somewhere out there :)
and love the collage..its beautiful.

Maybe it would not be a good idea after all for you to cut your hair. You seem to really love long hair.... and it looks so good on you!!!
And the Topshop shoes seem a reasonable and gorgeous alternative to Chanel!!!
i love the unicorn! is so lovely... i want one!
nice blog
xoxo
SOOOOO much inspiration in that collage! I love those shoes in the middle!!
LOVE YOUR COLLAGE

Lovely collage, those wedges are sick!<3
I adore !
Platform shoes- pourquoi pas? Chunky wedges are just too comfortable and stylish to give up right now...
Oh, that music is so Ooh La La!
Been missing you, E. We were in Florida (I remember when that was the plan - to see you when next we visited) & the internet connection kept breaking.. anyway, I'm back, & catching up, & I love this collage!
And I do loooove those shoes. I thought that craving for bovine-esque feet would go away, but dang if I'm not seeing it in my head more for spring than ever before! That and classic court shoes with ankle socks. I've worn that look in the past and am so in the mood for it now.
any time you need any photographic material for collages.. I've got tons that I haven't posted. Just name a topic, I've probably got it. Hope you're wonderfully well.
xox
Fabulous collage!!!!great imagination and everything is perfect!!!!...and the music is inspirational!
Kisses

This post is so brilliant, it remembers me of Legend also (which is the worst film ever but whatever !)
I'm also so pleased to hear Nino Rota again and again coming here <3
Unicorns have always had a special place in my heart - I would love to see them more in fashion actually. Dark, without being too cutesy.
Lusty x0x0
PS love the music :P
PPS read The Last Unicorn or at least watch the movie. Bring tissues.
Apparently wooden heels/clogs are the talk of the fashion bloggers atm... you guys make me feel like I need a pair...(would probably not be able to pull them off though)!
ps: The parka arrived! Now I just have to actually make an outfit post with it (...or maybe I should buy a pair of boots that would totally match first)!
xoxo
Love the collage!
-Team Threadsence
P.S. - Viva la Platforms ;)
That collage is amazing :) Enchanting fixations indeed!
beautiful collage!
