Dollhouse Bettie

So, I found this FANTASTIC shop on upper Haight that specializes in vintage lingerie and retro inspired lingerie, and finally had the funds to stock up on some proper undergarments for all my vintage dresses!

I got an amazing girdle, bustier, vintage crinoline, and a vintage Merry Widow; all of which look beautiful! What a difference having the proper undergarments on underneath older dresses; it totally holds your posture differently and makes you curvy in all the right places. If you have any vintage dresses, I cannot stress how much of an improvement it makes! : D

Check out the rest of their beautiful wares here!:

Stroker for the Commodore 64


Oh... long time ago i had a Commodore 64 and i was a big fan... still remember the time spent playing The Goonies or others maze games, but i'm still surprised when today i discovered at Der Übermensch: No frills. Just Beef, a game for C64 called The Stroker... a male masturbation simulator for the Commodore 64 (...from 1983) by Magic Carpet Software!!!

Guy Bourdin's experimental films


quote [Guy Bourdin (1928-1991) was a French avant-garde fashion photographer. Mentored by surrealist Man Ray and inspired by filmmaker Luis Buñuel, Bourdin's fashion shoots were often very strange, sexual, phantasmagoric and occasionally quite creepy. His photography frequently appeared in Vogue and Harper's Bazaar and he shot ad campaigns for Charles Jourdan, Issey Miyake, Chanel, and others. Bourdin was also quietly a filmmaker, working with 8mm, super 8, and 16mm. Above is footage of Dayle Haydon and Sayuko during a 1974 Vogue shoot in Normandy, France. More footage here on YouTube and here on UBUWEB Film. There's also a recent documentary, titled When the Sky Fell Down: The Myth of Guy Bourdin. And in July, Phaidon will publish a small inexpensive hardcover book of his work].

Madewell auto-blog (WhoWhatWear)

Totally diggin’ the mix of neons with beiges… I have to figure out the colors in my wardrobe. I have a lot of color, but I gravitate toward dark neutrals (black, gray, navy). Any time I try to create an outfit based on a fun, colorful piece, it’s either really boring or I feel silly. Gotta get my color game together.

Sure, everybody’s favorite transfer student might have gotten a Beverly Hills makeover, but she manages to own it (however briefly), giving the classic Chef Horowitz look a sort of Gwen Stefani infusion that keeps her skater-boy affections in the mix. Here, the key components. —erica
