There’s something surreal about this picture. I suspect this little pixie is probably fairly short and that the trees on my street are disorienting, but I almost feel like she’s just on her way to give a basket of mini muffins to grand-ma and get intercepted by a wolf. This was from back in the summer, when I had a yard sale and I’m just hoping she got home safe. She did buy a red-hooded jacket come to think of it…

I feel like this look is right out of a movie, but this gentleman was just taking a stroll down St-Laurent. I feel like life would be such a wonderful place if people started dressing up, just all the time. Ladies, get those dresses dry-cleaned. Men, get your shoes shinned.

I didnt realise who this was until looking at this picture again recently, but hey, it’s Rollie Pemberton aka Cadence Weapon! I wish I knew this young lady’s name, but I love her owl necklace and shoes. She’s carrying the Pop swag bag that contained everything from disposable underwear, to a shaker egg to a whole lotta pins.

This is from back during Pop Montreal. Somehow the photo got all pixelated when it took a trip to my USB key, but if it hadn’t, then you would have noticed the cute button pin on her shirt. When I asked for the future, she said “you must be getting desperate!”, but even though I never posted this photo until now is not because I didn’t like it, I’m just busy/lazy. Oops!

I’ll appleogize now for the not so great quality of the photographs but who gives a poo anyway, this is a street style blog not a photo quality blog. So enjoy the great fashions

Lately i’ve been working on the corner selling my body hussilin to make a dollor i also have been going to craft sales were i will sit all day, make no money, and loose all the merch at the end of the day. These mother fuckers stole my shits:

Your outfitt is cute but you need a little dream catcher on the right antler that you should also have tied to your fur on an aproximate 45 degree angle. I love your bloused boot. It could use a pile of feathers and candy wrappers stuck in a fashionable manner tucked in your left sock, but dont get too carried away baby-pancake-heaven-snacks.

Thanks for the triangle of energy, it really brought me synergy. After you left it the triangle opened up a rainbow came from the bottom onto the ground like a space ship abducting a sinner that looked like marilyn monroe. You are a beem that whistles in the wind and blows threw the leaves on a tree beside a dream bench sitting in the park on the holiday after halloween.

I feel the pom poms should be pinned to your hair and why not stick your bag on top of your head with some thick rope you will find on the shore of an ocean at sunset with deers running around you in a circle. Also, maybe wear your glasses lower on your face near your lips. Just a suggestion though, you might want to fasten the newly arranged glasses on your face with chewing gum and tape.

Your jeans and some brown spandex braided into a few strands wrapped around your head in a bun with a small collection of balloons and a radio box that played a recording of a fan blowing in the night would be a tasty ensemble for a head dress. OR even if you need a couple of old dresses for a head dress OR one dress starched stiff mounted on your head dress.

Speaking of head dresses, your on your way to a great start just add some pink twine, little birds, a few candy bracelets and maybe tie your jacket and matching pants and one of your boots to your head piece and dont forget to be creative and not to go over the top. This is a serious new trend, as well as not getting shot like a deer butterfly crossbreed in the morning of an apocalipse.

This trend is huge… as huge as wearing blankets which started last week which are now dispayed in the windows of urban outfitters. Get your head dresses now before the trend is over. Pigeons

Last week I had the pleasure of attending and taking photos at the fashion show of friend and fashion designer, Travis Taddeo.

Travis, who is a local Montrealer and lover of PVC and all things vinyl put the show together as part of Nightlife Magazine’s Superfreak Circus themed evening, with candy corn, cotton candy, and lots of other candies at the S.A.T. Below are a few photos from the show, as well as photos from the parties after.

The Clothing Swap last Saturday was absolute mahem. 60-something people showed up and clawed and bit their way through the crowd to score the best clothes. The little workshop of Woodenapples was completely taken over by the fiesty crowd but sadly, there was no fist-fights, no yelling match, nothing that made us dial 911. We were really looking forward to that… If you missed it, fear not, we’re thinking of doing it every season. In the meantime, make sure you go get all of your Christmas presents or little goodies for yourself (I got a little can of hang-over tea, it’s amazing.) at Woodenapples (5319 Parc)!

I meant to get some good street style photos, but mainly, I was just too busy running around and it reached a point where, there was so much well dressed people that I didn’t even know who to go talk to. I got my senses back around the end, just in time to get these two:
