Behind the ears

      Discovered them some time ago, while still living in London, and simply fell in love with the idea. Then, we were chasing head-over-heels after them, elbowing our way through the crowds mostly on bloody Oxford Street. We found two pairs in TopShop, not nice though . Finally, Asos came to rescue with silver, flower-like earwraps (they make you feel like one gorgeous specimen from the other planet.) Finally purchase - just for 8 pounds! In order to find some more choices, we did google research and came across Anni, young jewellery designer from Estonia. She makes beautiful earings, perheps the most striking are feather earwraps inspired by native american culture and dream catchers. They look big & heavy, and intrigue the eye with its metallic undertones. Some of them have additionally little dangling crosses which make the original boho design more rebelious, sex and rock’n’roll. Also on guys – quite handsome, isn't it? These pieces might not be cheap, but if you want to invest in a statement attention-grabbing accessory that do the talking, they are the ticket (definitely will boost up your look on those casual grey tshirt & jeans days).



You can buy them at Anni's website:  http://annijyrgenson.bigcartel.com/ . More finds:

     Monika Brodka is 24 y.o polish singer. Since  year 2004, when she won polish music show 'Idol', she has gone through a lot of fashion fades. On the side note, status of Idol winner is a quite tricky one, it is a bitter-sweet stepping stone as it quickly labels you as a one-season hit starlet. Brodka made her first album ear-pleasing, but it was immature and just average nice. With second album she did so much better. She’ve grown as an artist and fashion icon. With the new album, everything is so well-thought-of and witful.
     We may not approve every fashion decision she's made, but what we like about her is that she is charismatic, fearless & cheeky. She's a giddy chameleon. Her on-stage look of the moment is a bit of cock-a-doodle-doo, a bit of quirky space age shapes, lot’s of neon make-up, opt-art prints, colorful ribbons and pom poms, patchwork pillow-like dresses, surprising hats, and fashion recycling design. It's brightfuly cheerful, festive, folky, eye-popping and electric. Even though it looks sometimes like it’s overdone, you can’t fight with stage rules, can you? Off-stage we prefer no-frills Brodka, a classic, elegant one - well, still with a sparkle, she’s a Goral girl after all.

      We’re really proud of such ‘made at home’ artist. And honestly, there’s not much treasures like that on polish music scene. Don’t forget the name & have a listen. From Monika Brodka's new album 'Granada'
