Day 8 - obsessions...

Okay... haven't blogged for a week now... it's amazing that one could actually cough up your own guts.....so i have spent this past week.. locked in my home studio. i started a working on a collection of resort dresses inspired by a piece of cloth..how many ways can you tie one piece of cloth?? there are at least more than 10...I LOVE PAREO's. It's the most free and easy bit of cover. Well if we could walk around in one piece of cloth.. who needs clothes??

O yeah.. need to mention this... i took some medication meant for kids....( i know..i don't like taking meds... and was desperate...and it belonged to my niece)... the syrup knocked me out for about 6 hrs..... i was shocked... if this stuff is that strong.. why is it for kids???..label said MIGHT cause drowsiness....(!!)..incidentally.. it wasn't on prescription.

On a different note... as i was feeling like i needed to cheer myself on and kick the sickness.. my mind switched to things that i like. Besides food.. as i have lost my appetite...=(....the next best thing are jewels or shoes. There is nothing better than being able to reward yourself with a rock or two...ahem....not dust.. There is an immense satisfaction in being able to choose something produced by mother nature and accept all perfection or imperfections.. it doesn't matter....diamonds, rubies, sapphires... perfect stones in color, clarity, and their fragile, seemingly delicate nature oozes sheer beauty and strength. I have a slight obsession with the deco periods of fine jewellery. There were alot of exquisite pieces produced during that time.... and you still see the influences today.

So this is one for the ladies. Go treat yourself to something fine. You deserve it!

Something that caught my eye recently...

Some of my other favs...are original cartier pieces... and the fun Dior jewellery designed by Victoire de Castellane... who has the most amazing taste for extravagance,.. very whimsical..not everyone's cup of tea.. but fun.

i am not going to talk shoes....as i could seriously go on and on..shoes are are girl's best friend next to rocks... and dark chocolate.

My other... obsessions are sneakers... NIKES...vinyl toys....books....animation....notebooks, popcorn....lychee bellinis....this list could be never ending.....

Do you think it that these are considered OCD- ing?????? I do end up being a collectaholic..personal obsessions....

what are your little OCD's??.... go on do spill.....
