Gaga Lasagna

Lady Gaga has NEVER ONCE apologized for wearing fur or meat, never once shown an IOTA of self doubt in any way. We love her because she has no apology, she was born this way.


BUT


The bitch gains 15 pounds and suddenly she's out there everywhere blaming food and giving us excuses for her appearance.


THAT SHIT AIN'T RIGHT. Be a role model, girl. Own it. Remember when you tweeted #popstarsdonteat? The 12 year old that read that is now 14. This is your chance to make it right to her. OWN YOUR BODY. YOU ARE THE BIGGEST STAR ON THE PLANET.

The WEDDING!!!

So, I got hitched. I have photographic proof:
All in, the day was amazing, better than we could have hoped for. Our friends met our family, and dancing, singing and eating ensued. The midnight Chili bar was a hit, karaoke was sung, and NINJA TURTLE WEDDING CAKE was eaten!

CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF...

Robert Larin. 

BEST PART?! HE'S CANADIAN!!!

Making his Modernist brutalist (Don't you love that word as a description for JEWELRY?) art out of mostly pewter (sometimes coating them in gold and silver) this dude was SERIOUS. 

Today, there are relatively few known facts about the Canadian designer who produced some of the most exceptional examples of modernist jewelry. Based in Montreal, QC, Larin began designing jewelry in his mid-20s. His designs were in production between the years 1968 and 1977, and the substantive creative output during this short time is truly remarkable.  

Larin pushed boundaries; aesthetically, technically and socially. In his factory on rue Papineau, he employed approximately 25 workers, most of whom were hearing-impaired. All workers communicated with sign-language against the noisy backdrop of the factory floor. Taken from HERE.

Check out a few of his amazing pieces:

And my favorite thrift store find of late, this Pendant! His designs are so easy to spot, this was in the dusty and dark corner of the (normally) junk jewelry case in the Salvation Army and Dixie and Dundas! It's now up on my Etsy Shop

 I wish I could keep them, but a girl's gotta eat!
