Song For This Post: Jay Malinowski - Santa Monica

This is a song/album I am currently addicted to. Jay Malinowski is the lead singer for Bedouin Soundclash, though his solo release is nothing like their sound. It's haunting and lonely, and just gorgeous. His version of this Bedouin Soundclash song is so heartwrenching, with a completely beautiful vid to go with..

Also: I am using two looks today I've had sitting in my blog folder for awhile cos I just couldn't get to it last week. Both feature the Springy skin in Pale from Plastic Flowers (25L/2 tones), the DUBOO owl tat (35L). and the Medley hand tats from the Spring Bazaar; both tats I've been wearing for ages, and most likely will continue doing so lol.

Song For This Post: Eels - Efil's God

This is an older Eels song, and one of my favourites. Haunting/lurky, it fits the off-beat slightly dark feeling this outfit has. Entirely inspired by the LaGyo (LG Concepts) glasses (I accidentally bought these during the RPH *blush* *ahem* but I am glad I did in retrospect, as they made me step outside my norm) and the bubble skirt from Aurora, which was something i could NOT resist scooping up during their stop on the Red Packet Hunt.
