i like you
If you think about the last time someone turned to you and said, "Hey, I like you!" Chances are you'll stare wistfully out the window and crave pie. But we're here to tell you that a) we're pretty fond of you and b) people don't say they like each other enough. Before you take your fingers to your tongue and gesticulate barfing, think about it.
Cottage Industry
We know year 8 history lessons were no fun without shoebox dioramas or discovering crap in fossilised rock. But those educated brain cells were probably obliterated in the following years behind the school shed. So here's a quick refresher - make a diorama while reading this if you must...
Despite the rib-snapping corsets and ludicrous wigs men insisted on wearing, the 1850s marked many beginnings in contemporary fashion.
Ambiguous Horse online shop
The Ambiguous Horse of Pip Carroll's many-tentacled design agency is thankfully more ambiguous than Khartoum, the prize stallion that meets an unhappy end in The Godfather, but less ambiguous than the slack-jawed, talky-talky Mr Ed and those prancy, saccharine Little Ponies. Ambiguous Horse, in fact, is named after the optical illusion of its equine-silhouette logo, but all you need to know is that it's an agency that helps facilitate the awesomeness of many Melbourne designers by selling their wares online and helping out with the tricky stuff artisans are oft to busy to do.
Gallery above Glitzern
There's been talk, oh yes there has. And now it's open. The gallery above Glitzern in Crossley Street. It's actually in the apartment that once belonged to anal-retentive Australian landscape artist and teacher of Frederick McCubbin, Eugene von Guerard. It is a bit spooky and fadedly opulent, which is the perfect setting for an exhibition by Kathryn Baulch, of Melbourne's cult jewellery label House of Baulch.
Very Butchered Christmas Show
If you walk down Bourke St Mall at this time of year, you could be forgiven for thinking that Christmas is ultimately a time for shopping. For buying a whole lot of stuff that no one really wants, and that they will return on December 26. Sometimes it’s nice to be reminded that Christmas is also a time for friends, for catching up with the people who have supported you during the year and giving them something they really appreciate – like a drink.
Bonfire Folk
For nearly her entire life Kim Victoria Wearne’s Bonfire Folk label has lain dormant in the pit of her stomach. But now, after several bouts of creative disquietude and a brush with plywood, its cells have multiplied and spread throughout her body, demanding that she obey their every command. Lucky for us on the consuming end – Bonfire Folk jewellery is the stuff of errant batwings, possessed children and silver finery, all presided over by a large brown dog named Aero.
