Streetsightings
When i saw the picture about on the Streetsightingsl blog I knew I had seen it before. And I was right. I had seen the cuff captured by the blogger of Streetsightings on the street, in the Chanel Fall ready to wear collection. This is a classic example of accessories from the ramp translating to street wear. Below is picture courtesy of Style.com of the Chanel fashion show. On the ramp (below) the jacket is worn with a large ring and the street wearer follows the same suite with her take on the ramp example.

Stacking

Jak and Jil

I've seem alot of stacking of accessories and I thought I would show a few examples here. I think It makes a greater affect especially with smaller items such as braclets and rings. I like the temporary tattoos by Chanel.

Street Fashion


Stylesightings
Amlul

The real deal. Fashion on the streets around the world. From stylesightings, the use of bangles and accssorizing the arm, I find interesting. I have also seem this on many catwalks for the S/S 2010. the bangles are big and bold and are stacked. This reminds me of Coco Chanel because she also used many accessories at once. The use of victorian theme in the first pivture is also interesting. This picture aslo shows the combining of the contemporary ring with a historic style of dress (the collar and cuff).

The crucfix is often used in fashion. Here it appears on the the tshirt.

Textures



More texture!

Steel used objects


Trying out punches and sanding to get some texture on these things. By the way if anyone know what these are, I would really like to find out. I found them at a scap yard and have no clue want exactly they are. I was told at the scrap yard they come from the engine of a car. I'm just woundering about the sizes and what is the function. I hope to use them in a fashion show.

I'm also trying to find a way to colour the steel. Any suggestions?
