Weekend Wayzgoose

I was fish eyed in goggles gasping for air at times, yes I cant swim!! so off I went to the swimming baths last weekend, in those large chlorinated puddles. Until I got purple around the gills - Can I still Swim?! Nope  Decided to go and watch the movie Inception, and much like my swimming I will need a rerun of watching that movie again, did that spinning top fall?!? What I liked about Inception, is that it gets your mind thinking, it starts up discussions, it's one of those movies that everyone comes out of talking about, just because there's so much to talk about.

Cloud Umbrella

Much like these clouds above, it was a weekend full of dodging raindrops, still is in fact! But I think this cloud helps you put on a Happy Face! Though most umbrellas fly open with the push of a button, the Cloud Umbrella is inflates when you pump the handle. Created by Joon&Jung both, Joonsoo Kim and Jungyou Choi are from South Korea, who met in design academy Eindhoven.  Their backgrounds provide them with an edge to create adorable designs inspired by the everyday

Skull + Beads + Bangles

SKULL SENSITIVE

I have always had an over-active imagination (fertile imagination), it probably reflects in my dreams and nightmares. I've come across many tasty items which have a skull attached to it and for some reason I've always associated skulls with the Masonic cult rituals and the darkness, having seen skulls in so many places, I've started to feel desensitised around them. Consequently my sister and I came across a newly opened store which had many tasty leather skull embellished handbags.

thus I decided to seize the opportunity to buy these handbags, my sister brought one and I brought the other so we can swap and share any-time. I do have a weakness for soft leather handbags and we were also fortunate on getting one of the handbags half price due to the staff weren't too sure of the prices...hooray!

    

I took some snaps of my sister Ju Ju Hyena! and if have a closer look you can probably see the beer garden, which we made plenty of use of for The World Cup with the England flag still left standing.. It's a well known tradition in England, that No One flies and displays their national England flag, many countries are naturally patriotic, but not England, unless when the football World Cup arrives, flags are everywhere to be seen however as soon as we are knocked out, everyone takes them down. Although I have yet to take ours down haha largely due to lethargy.

LES BIJOUX DE SOPHIE

2010 World Cup Winner España

I wont lie, I have a slightly sore head from yesterdays WC final, which is not a wise considering I have my sisters graduation to celebrate tomorrow! (very muy proud of her) I was rooting for Spain, largely due to many of their players have played for Liverpool Football Club and are currently playing for us, with the likes of Torres and Pepe Reina. Although I support England, my loyalties have always largely been Club before Country, this was tough seeing as Dirk Kuyt who was on the Netherlands side, also plays for Liverpool as well, and I also did not want to see him on the losing side. The final itself was abit of let down and not a thrilling affair sadly. Que grande España!?!!?! Not so much! Spain had scored only eight goals in seven matches, winning each of their four knock-out stage games by a score of 1-0 and setting a new record for the fewest tallies ever by a winner. I think this fact culminated this World Cup overall, football and goal's wise this World Cup has not lived up to past others and wont be as memorable, however South Africans can be proud of themselves after the country staged a successful World Cup tournament, never before have I seen so many Africans, of all colours, united as a continent watching not just South Africa but the event itself. 

My lasting memory of this World Cup will be the Vuvuzela's, the jabulani ball and Paul the psychic Octopus, whom correctly predicted the results of the seven matches that Germany were involved in: five victories against Australia, Ghana, England, Argentina and Uruguay plus defeats to Serbia and Spain, and the final itself. 

Countdown now to The World Cup in Brazil where the 2014 event will be staged. Four years seems so long away, makes me wonder what life will bring till then. For now :-) keep your eyes peeled for the GIVEAWAY I will be hosting over the next few days! 


LIVERPOOL'S - PEPE REINA LEADING THE CELEBRATIONS 

Got to love the fella! Pepe Reina - The IPOD in one hand and the drink in the other.

Ring Side Armor

MAZINGA ARMOR RING

I feel like a child in a sweet shop or toy shop when I see this armor ring, mainly because this ring has a toy-like quirky demeanour, it would seem of late I really feel compelled towards quirky looking fun items, I was just saying the other day to my besties - "I think I'm having a quarter life crisis" haha my pearls have temporarily gone back to the draw for now! >>>These rings can only be purchased in Asia such as the Rowky Eshop. 

T-SHIRT FOR BULLIES

My first thought when seeing these T-Shirts that they're quite cleverly done - with the two gloved fists positioned on each arm, but what I liked most about it was the name given to the T-Shirts which are called "T-Shirt for Bullies". Instead of the T-Shirt providing a brutish hard look, alternatively it's more of a self defence stance, and so it should be! :) after-all any form of boxing, martial arts should always be a codified practise of self defence and self preservation of life...and hmmmm I think I've immersed myself with too much of Jackie Chan & Mr Miyagi style wisdom after watching the new Karate Kid last night!?! Which I didn't have much confidence for since the original Karate Kid is an ultra cult classic but I though the remake was still worth a watch. 

I can assume Males would need plenty of self- confidence to wear these T-shirts, but I don't think it should matter. The design of these T-Shirts have been created in the city of Moscow Russia by the name of Banzainer.  

* I'm particular looking forward to next week since I will be hosting my First Giveaway! to treat one you blog readers *

More info will be provided next week until then folks have a Enjoyable Weekend & THE World Cup Final this Weekend Good Luck Spain vs Holland...I'm just hoping for a thrilling final and a thrilling end to the World Cup in South Africa.

Much Love to you all ..................

Metalliferous Gwen Lu

METAGROBOLIZE 

The muse in this editorial Gwen Lu looks abso-bloody-lutely muy muy funkdafied with a futuristic tribal edge look, Gwen's short blonde crop hair has always been an hairstyle I adore because of its daring androgyny cyberpunk introspection. The metallic creations are metagrobolizing << if that's a word!? yep probably not but then again I have a habit for fabricating words when I see something hypnotizing. Sadly I don't know what magazine this Editorial is from.

IMPALPABLE INCLINE 

You know when you've reached one neb of the Summer when Wimbledon draws to an end and the lashings of strawberries and cream, washed down with jugs of Pimms on Henman Hill have all been devoured in its thousands. I’m just so glad to see this year’s tournament has bought some sunshine and most of all Rafa Nadal is the Wimbledon champion once again- I couldn't be happier for him! Lets not forget there was also the Shock of Brazil being knocked out of the World Cup and Germany's Wundervolle performance against Argentina and penalty drama for Spain. It's been an eventful weekend to say the least on the sports front. Abit like these high heel converse's ALL STAR by Davide Allieri.
