i don't know where to start with this
it's so bad, its fantastic
what are they saying? i could never understand the part where she asks him to come to rome?

i admit to having danced to this when i was a child (ok .. teen), and i thought they were dead glamorous
i imagined they would drink cinzano and smoke cigarettes in their poly drapey dresses and platform espadrilles

here is more about them, if you are that sad
they are still disco-ing all over the costa del sol

jane bown








this video is soooo english
and modest

what a funny old bird she is

bitter and twisted



i love jacky's drawings
i have been asking for one since 1986
but one has never appeared
and she is my best friend

so all i can say is.....i love my chihuahua painting

made in the usa




commune is opening a shop this weekend
it looks pretty nice to me
everything is made in the usa by local artists and designers
clare has some of her bags there

hello sailor

shame he is gone
stolen from us by the demon drink

dead fanciable though back then

i am a bit clumsy though
might be an upset

from here



cute

thanks to here for posting


this freja model is pretty lovely
although i did mention her in my rant on models being too thin - she looks ok here
more than that, though, is this awesome hairdo

i thought to myself for one minute that i might cut mine like this
but then i thought better of it



ethel walker




lovely

hand made houses book






i love this book
but the photos are quite dark and slightly out of focus
which is a shame

these were the best
that jonathan elliot might have benefited from some lights

lots of geodesic domes and trees inside houses
