A house is not a home

I think I probably make some really bad footwear choices sometimes! (like below!) gross! I don't know what it is, but there's something strangely alluring about ugly shoes.

Glitter school shoe docs/ black socks/ old school adidas trackies

The quote below, I love - in an ideal world, I would try and live by it everyday.

Tackiness is fantastic. Lately I've just wanted to go for bogan luxe, but I don't think I'm brave enough. Anyway, you look great in everything- tacky or elegant- you always make everything look amazing! x

I love the shoes actually! And debuting what seems to be your favorite colors..red and blue???

The quote is 100% truth, the reason why many great artists have been antisocial or reclusive..because they are so developed on the inside that outside voices no longer make sense. It is definitely something to live by, esp if you want to create great art!

Those shoes are hilarious. I love how one side is red...the other side is blue...and the middle is a mixture. Also, your post title makes me think of one of my favorite Gun Club songs. Time for a listen!
