5 Things We like today:

**Headbands

Yes headbands.  And I really like the ones here at Ban.do.   

Dudes at bars like them too.  True story.  Always good to carry one in your purse in case you need a costume change at some point in the night.  The ones listed are made by two girls who are stylists from LA, and one is named Jamie!  Love this quote from them: “ jen thinks she is funnier than jamie, but jamie disagrees.”  Hmmm. Sounds familiar, no??

**Alice in Wonderland AND ***Urban Outfitters

There is the amazingness that is this book and these illustrations.  Best.  Thing.  Ever.  Welcome to my dream world.  Check out the video here.

And speaking of Alice…did you ever watch the made for tv version from 1985? It was a 2 night special.. Anywho, you should check it out.....it ROCKS :) There are clips on youtube just search Alice in Wonderland 1985 and they will come up...  creeps my out slightly how slow it moves… but also makes me LOL!! 

Another UO contest and one that we Bats entered but did not win…. Wahhhh…. But the pics that did win are pretty cool so check them out here.

**  Taking boy stuff and making it girl stuff

This is such a cool idea!!!  And so creative J  The basic premise is that you send her a shirt of a boy (one you love or one you hate, really doesn’t matter!!) And she makes it into a scarf, pin or messenger bag.  Super cute results, and you can keep him around forever, or just remember you made something good come from him (and then forget him).

** Emotions Can Be Dangerous

Sh*t don’t I know that.  Dangerous, painful and effin’ hard and miserable.  The real statement here is in the pieces!  This is my #1 favorite item right now. I wear it all the times,  usually even to sleep.  Made by a local artist, Sharif, I saw it on Daily Candy and swore it was made for me. Might because it reminds me of my 2 besties in other parts of the country.  Maybe its because it reminds me of La Roux “ My heart melts just like plastic….”  Maybe it’s the shattered dream of my “bag o’ weapons” necklace. Whatever it is, it makes me happy and I want more. Look out for lots more stuff we like from this guy…. I mean really perfect right? Hearts and guns and cold hard shiny plastic… what’s not to L.O.V.E?

I want this… and this….

Check out all of it here.

Alice in Fashionland...

Tim Burton and Alice in Wonderland go together likes bats and caves.  Well aren’t they all just our favorite things!!  So we are super duper 3-D shades excited for March 5^th and the opening of Alice In Wonderland in 3-D.

Zac Posen and Pamela Love are designing an awesome line of Alice jewelry. What the f is this amazingness?  This stuff is all so freaking creepy cool I couldn’t decide which pics to share. And actually this Pamela Love chick is pretty badass…. She also has a line of WTWTA jewelry, which is so awesome And she has a True Blood line in the works??  I swear she is our kindred tree friend. And I think she reads our blog.   Love it as much as we do?  Check out the Spring lookbook. 

Urban Decay has come out another Book of Shadows. And yay for us its Alice themed!!

Here’s what the site says: “Open the palette to reveal a pop-up scene of Alice in the mushroom forest. Her “drink me” bottle discarded, she staggers past towering mushrooms, only to cross paths with a very peculiar, hookah-smoking caterpillar. A large mirror rests behind the scene – you feel as if you are transported into the film itself.

Hidden inside a secret drawer are 16 best-selling Eyeshadows, given topsy-turvy names like White Rabbit, Jabberwocky and Oraculum. Alongside them lie travel sizes of Eyeshadow Primer Potion and two 24/7 Eye Pencils.”

Ok. WOW.  We NEED to have this. Urban Decay, Tim Burton, Disney, and Alice in Wonderland? Yes, please and thank you.

There is a nailpolish collection too, by our fave nailpolish line, OPI. 

Names and Colors:

Absolutely Alice (blue glitter)

Mad as a Hatter (multi-colored glitter)

Off With Her Red!  Thanks So Muchness! (shades of red)

 

Sue Wong has a line of dresses, some of which are pretty cute.  A little too feminine for my taste but still worth mentioning.

Even Bath and Body Works is in on the action with their Goldie Line: Alice lip plump   … but its out of stock so must have been popular!

"It would be so nice if something made 

sense for a change."  ~Alice

"Twinkle, twinkle, little bat! 

How I wonder what you're at."  ~The Hatter
