I don't believe in Peter Pan, Frankenstein or Superman....

So I will be the first to admit that I am an ever-evolving, contradictory, camelion-like beast, I'm going through changes, I'm having a never ending moment. Some would call it a mid-life crisis or an attack of conscience...whatevs, anyhow, I'm making teeny-weeny efforts to improve myself and my contribution to the World. I am thinking of cycling from London to Paris next July to raise money for the Environmental Justice Foundation, a charity that work to improve human rights and environmental issues within the Fashion industry. I do hope you will all sponsor me! To learn more about the ride/ charity take a peek: www.ejfoundation.org

My beautiful friend Focus Child is hosting a regular night at The George Tavern (www.myspace.com/thegeorgetavern) called FREAKS. Above is my darling friend The Lone Taxidermist, you can listen to and witness her greatness at www.myspace.com/taxidermistsmanchester. Simply the BEST.

My Marie Antionette inspired ensemble for The Last Tuesday Society, Hendricks Halloween Ball. Pink Silk corset by ' What Katie Did', homemade skirt, convincing gash created by my lovely sister with some serious liquid latex. Most excellent.

Pumpkins scream in the dead of night...

Halloween is possibly the best time of year, when my inner/ outer goth is given reason for being....(Above) titled simply as the Pearly Companion, this beauty and many more can be purchased from this NYC queen of pearly, facial exposions....www.feather-masks.net. As I shall be attending the Hendricks Hallows eve ball (lasttuesdaysociety.com) this Friday I have been dwelling on some serious life/ death ensemble choices..

I'm thinking French revolution chic... I don't speak French so I'll let the funky music do the talkin' talkin' now
I am too excited.
