bits and bobbins

i’m obsessed with these jewels made from herkimer diamonds by abraxas rex. so obsessed, i have been rendered very nearly speechless, only really able to say: wow.

it’s been a long time since i have gotten really twitterpated (aka: moved to the point where my stomach gets flutters and i lose my breath!) about footwear…but when i saw these clogs and clog boots (!!!!) from nordic shoemaker swedish hasbeens, i nearly fainted. those orange ones?? omg. *dies* they are allegedly based upon clogs from the 70s (my favorite decade for fashion), made in sweden, and gloriously, the company ships all over the world. they also create some pretty fine bags and belts. sweet.

fyi: uo has the middle model in black and tan.

in the event that i was actually in the mood to spend some moolah, i wouldn’t mind picking up a piece of jewelry like any of the above by laura lombardi jewelry. her etsy shop is full of similarly chic pieces, many of them fashioned out of that finest of materials, my favorite, gold (yum yum!). the last of the pieces shown above i spotted on wikstenmade. my my, jenny gordy, do you ever have good taste…
