So I was just randomly on The Lot’s website checking to see what new winter stock has fluttered in and I stumbled across this great deal!
These Bone Collector Skull Patch Leggings are on sale! Marked down from R299 to a jaw dropping R74.75 you best come to mamma you pair of sexy beasts you. There’s only a couple left in stock so dust off those credit cards if need be.
Whether you are teaming up these leggings with a cute vintage tee, or a comfy chunky knit and some killer heels, this a great pair to add to your winter wardrobe to give it some edgy, rock chic sex appeal.
I know I am quoting Jenna Marbles here, but if there was ever a True Life: I am Addicted to Leggings, I would also be on that show.

This weekend I ventured to beautiful Kalk Bay in Cape Town with Pixel Suicide and found some amazing local designer pieces.
First up is this amazing bag made out of soda can tabs! It takes the designer an incredible 14 hours to make just ONE bag. Insane! I love the fact that she’s using these tabs in such a unique way, I’ve seen loads of art incorporate the tabs but I’m really quite in awe of how great it works as a fashion accessory.
Now this jersey stole my little heart! The sleeves and zip detail are made out of pleather and it is oh-so-cosy. With winter fast approaching, I am getting more and more into the wide variety of knits that I am seeing everywhere. Just a pity my ass is broke and I can’t get it all. I think clothes are like my version of pokemon and it is damn expensive becoming a pokemon master.
Speaking of geeky things, I found the most amaze earrings from one...

I have decided to start a blog for the edgy rock-chic South Africans out there who have to live with the consequence of being in a country that at times can be extremely safe and boring with its fashion. Many a night I have Googled and ogled at the clothes some of our overseas counterparts get to lay their hands on and the envy inside is a little beast I can’t control.
Now some of you might have the moola and balls to import your trinkets from abroad - and for that I envy you just a smidge more. I know for a lot of girls we are put off from importing because of exchange rates and all the horror stories of the parcel going missing, being opened at the post office or worst yet those import duty fees.
So finally, out of frustration, I have decided to make a blog about it. I aim to show you where you can find our elusive style LOCALLY, some great DIY tips to make up for where we are...
It’s that moment most Sharkies have been waiting for with baited breath, some have lost sleep due to the salivating over the sneak peeks that Black Milk cruelly tantalised us with.. and now it has arrived! The countdown is over and the latest glorious creations have finally been unveiled to the public!
Tartan has made its come back in 2014 and is pretty much everywhere you look right now. I really love the playful edgy look they have given this print.
My absolute favourite Tartan piece are these hubba hubba Spartans Sheer Tartan Red Leggings. I love the punk look and could totally see myself accessorizing with a little studs, a couple of spikes and my Dr Martin boots of doom!
Now I know what you are thinking, “Woah! That black dress is risqué as hell!” and “How the hell would I style that?!” but never fear Lace + Crosses is near! As crazy as that dress...
