Around April, my Darling sister sent me a link with a DIY project of a shredded tee-shirt, i thought the idea was so cool, that i did it;it took several nights of repetitive shredding, but eventually i did the whole back of it. i never really got around to wearing it or liking it because it didn't seem right. maybe it was a bad quality tee-shirt that i used, because the shreds became strange, however! upon reflection and after seeing several examples of them throughout the web, i have now decided i shall give it ago... maybe...
what do you think? (all those readers out there) these are some of the images inspiring me to try it out
this was my attempt.. its kind of too boofy

all the above turned out like beautiful cobwebs of thread, mine looks ridiculous compared to the above.
As you may have guessed by the title this post will be about.. Wait for it.. Three Things! First! For the past year or so I have watched the drop crotch pant/trackpant make its way everywhere in men's fashion. And I had being looking into acquiring some of these wonderful pants for myself.. So after looking around on the net and the small amount of good men's clothing stores in Wellington, I found the pants that I had been looking for! Material Boy Tubby Tigas. But.. They are expensive.. Good as Gold expensive.. so for now all I can do is.. Try them on in the shop!
What do you think?
And now on to two.. I have discovered one of the most amazing bands that I have ever heard in my life.. I think that everyone in the world should experience them sometime in their life. The band is the National, and their album the Boxer. It's amazing, I must have listened to it at least 30 times over in the past week and I am still nowhere near being sick of it..
This is the first song on the album and one of my favourites and the song that really got me hooked, check it out:
Fake Empire - The National
The video isn't the official one which is kind of lame.. But amazing song..
And number three!
I have two new cameras! I bought I tiny Palmat Automatic Film Camera and the Good Shit Sale in Wellington about month ago, and upon showing it to a family friend who was also interested in cameras I was given another! A Ricoh XR-P. I haven't used film cameras that much and I really wanted to have a go at it because it always seemed way 'cooler' so this is my chance!
Palmat Automatic
And Ricoh XR-P
And that's the end! Hope you liked my three things for the week! Oh and to everyone reading this out in cyberspace tell your friends! Get us followers! It looks lame only having three! Peace
Of all times i really shouldn't be posting this. But with the ending of my high school life, and exams, i'm feeling nostalgic. Plus i just love these photos. or poloroids! my darling sister Crab-hands introduced me to the poloroid application for the computer. i love the look of them. i can't help it! and with all this nostalgia floating around in my head, the look adn style of the "faux-poloroids" seems to hit the spot. so why not!
