A BOHEMIAN LIKE YOU

Why bleeding is breathing. You’re hiding underneath the smoke in the room. Try bleeding is believing. I used to. My mouth is dry.

This night when I went to bed / I wrote this letter in my head / I was too spaced out for you to reach me / I used to teach now you teach me / I say my head is in the clouds

I was walking down a dark black road // I was chasing a bright white light // I’m sinking in a deep blue ocean // I’m flying in a clear blue sky // I’m screaming at a large, deaf monster // As I’m falling from the fifteenth floor

THE RAINBOW CONNECTION

At the clasp of a Ksubi button.

What a colour combination, or should we say constellation? Australian indie fashion label Ksubi has re-launched its signature neon denim line in a short film appropriately titled “Kolors” (…get it?) that sees Bambi Norwood-Blythe, Cisco Gorrow and Heidi Harrington don said signature denim (and not much else), scale old-school Ford Falcons, launch off car bonnets into thin air and partake in a daring game of ‘chicken’ on a deserted road, where burn outs produce a matching neon hue of smoke and a indistinct trail of melted rubber on the asphalt. Intriguing!

The video is directed by the artfully dexterous Daniel Askill; who incidentally, has directed digital fashion features and campaigns for Acne, Dior and AnOther magazine as well as music videos for Placebo, Sia, Digitalism, Unkle and Phoenix. (just to name-drop a few!) And to wet fashion-savvy appetites, Ksubi has released a selection of enticing photographs from the video which is set to premiere internationally on May 5.

Available in white, blue, orange, green, black, purple, red, plum, aged blue, aged green, aged yellow, aged black and aged pink, the ‘Kolors’ collection is available in General Pants, David Jones and of course, Ksubi stores. And how will you choose which pair of ‘Chitch’, ‘Van Winkle’, ‘Super Spray On’ or ‘Super Skinny’ Ksubi jeans to add to your Winter wardrobe? Well, let us hope that you are not colour-blind. 

The Kinks may have serenaded us with

“Electronic nature made by man with robots in mind.
Big city lights guide my way into the night, darkness shines
When I’m standing underneath the neon sign…”

…But Ksubi proves that all you need to do is simply stand still in your neon denim jeans for the power of electronic nature to be on your side… Maybe invest in a smoke machine and head down to Chapel St for the full effect though…

WHEN THE GOING GETS WEIRD THE WEIRD TURN PRO

So my friend Daniel had a party. No theme, but a quote – When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro - Wise words from one of my favourites; dear Hunter T. Cue the lasers, the smoke machines, the vodka and the gold glitter jacket. I may or may not have attacked Mikey with my eyeliner to make him look like the guy from A Clockwork Orange, but my defence is he asked for it when he rocked up with an impulsively shaved half of a head. I doused my lips in glorious purple lipstick to match my fluro purple nails. Oh what a night. X
