Downtime

I am really sick at the moment - so sorry for not a very detailed post.

Some new styles hitting www.whokilledbambi.co over the weekend! Now for some veges for dinner, a nice relaxing bath and some down time watching a movie or two!

Influencers

I found this short documentary about "Influencers" very interesting. NB: It may require you to sit still for 13 minutes, but you will take something from it, I promise.

For those of you who don't take the time to watch things, I will quickly explain to you what you could have seen.  This documentary explores what it means to be an influencer. It then goes on to talk about how trends and creativity is becoming more widespread within today's society due to music, fashion and entertainment.

My thoughts on Popular Culture and it's influences on our society: Pop culture is so ingrained into our society that it's impossible not be influenced by it.  I think it's great that it is having such a massive impact on people identities. My life has changed immensely since 2008 (around the time I realised I loved fashion so much) because I have been able to access broad based mediums and because it's become easier for me to search for instant information. I have been able to absorb all this information and it has now helped me to formulate my own ideals, opinions, and essentially my outlook on life. So I believe without pop-culture my "influencers" would have been completely different.

So my questions to you are: What and who are you influenced by? What shapes you as a person? Has it been someone who has created something? A musician? An everyday person? A fashion designer?

See more on the Influencers site

Written and Directed by Paul Rojanathara and Davis Johnson, the film is a Polaroid snapshot of New York influential creatives (advertising, design, fashion and entertainment) who are shaping today's pop culture.

TRINITAS

Even though t-shirts seem to be becoming yesterdays news, with the bra or bikini top (whatever you want to call them) making their way in to street wear, I still think nothing beats a good ol' print tee.

Here are a bunch of tee's by German based label TRINITAS. All their products are very limited - which gives them a collectible feeling. Knowing that you're one of the few people who own something is a great feeling, don't you think? Once these tee's are sold out, then that's it! There's no chance of them being reprinted! (I think they have well and truly sold out now) But I thought I'd post as I really like the illustrations.

Happy Hump Day errybody!

Dip Dye

Okay, so this fascination with dip dye is in it's early stages. It only began four or so days ago whilst I was on Facebook chat with my bestie.  NB: I almost never use Facebook chat and I'm almost never signed in either - so really this conversation/fascination nearly didn't existed.

We were both trying to come up with new, innovative ideas for our Market stall which was on the 6th May. One of our regular pieces we take to the markets is a white tray table similar to this one - I Googled a bunch of DIY projects and saw the images featured above on a bunch of different interior design blogs. I came up with the idea to do a similar dip dye technique to the legs of said tray table in a coral colour... but ran out of time to do so before Sunday. So realistically this story is pointless to you all. So because I just made you waste 5 minutes of your afternoon reading about a project I didn't in fact complete  - I promise to complete this project for our next stall and I will show you the process.

I really love that this is such an easy way to introduce colour to your apartment, house or even market stall!! White against a pink/coral is my favourite combination! Would you do this to any of your furniture?

The Village Markets May

A little photo diary of our pop-up stall at The Village Markets on the Gold Coast!

What a blast today was! It was so busy, all our stock went flying out the non-existent door! I think the mighty fine sunshine played a very big part in that! Our besties Soy Chai Latte had an awesome day too - but that is a given as all their candles are DIVINE!

If you missed out on our pop up stall never fear as we'll probably be at the one in a months time or you can find us online: www.whokilledbambi.co

Hope you all had a lovely weekend!
