SWANclothing Original Adjustable garters, that photo.

The photo I didn’t include in the first post about the Original Adjustable garters ends up being the most popular, as usual. Your collective eyes always know best. So here it is. And here they are in the SWANclothing shop.

An Instagram from last Friday night’s wanderings. Sake, mango sushi, sunset lit cherry blossoms, and abandoned mansions were found. And there was lots of photo taking.

I’m SWANclothing on Instagram, find me…

Very tiny gold and silver buckles for future SWANclothing projects.

News flash… all SWANclothing posts on my Tumblr are now separated out!

Well not all of them but my favourites. And they’re here.

Brogues, ties, and roses…

Can’t veer too far from the theme here can I, nor do I want to really. Here are a couple of my wants, a thing that I am actively getting, and something I’m just going to admire from afar…

The Roses t-shirt by Soulland is all mine, and the reason this is in the pieces of me category of this blog. Now I finally know where those beautiful men’s shirts with massive florals on them come from [scroll through that collection to see]. I was a fan of this brand before I knew I was a fan.

These Simone Rocha brogues. Or would you call that an oxford? It has holes… but it also has plexi heels, uh. I don’t know the price tag, I doubt I need them but they are certainly on my mind. As in I LOVE THEM.

And this Unisex Tie from Collar, Stand + Tie I’ll be admiring this from afar. Though you never know…

SWANclothing Original Adjustable garters. Done!

In the shop, the new SWANclothing Original Adjustable Sock and Thigh High Garters. With either the standard grip. Or heavy grip. And 2 sizes to choose from. So now you can wear the double banded style as both a thigh garter or on your calf too. Still made with recycled leather, and topped off with the silver metal swan bead (of course).

Getting there with shooting the new SWANclothing Original Adjustable garters.

There will still be a moment before they go up in the store and I can post all the photos but here is a quick shot of the new SWANclothing Original Adjustable garters. Yes, sock and thigh! I have to quickly work on some orders and then I’ll get back to sorting pics. So here’s this for now…

Roses on telephones.

Just a lovely image by Linder Sterling, from my Flirting. Historically speaking board on Pinterest.

Daily shoes… New Fluevogs. And daily legs in new argyle tights.

Originally an instagram pic and that explains the title. But I admit, I like this photo. So am posting it here too. These are my new-ish Fluevogs which I refuse to wear outside because all it does is rain here and destroy shoes. And also my new argyle tights that I am completely crazy for. More from me soon…

Ah, bonnet satire…

Here’s a tiny explanation from Wikipedia about “Les Invisibles en Tête-à-Tête”, a French satire on the poke bonnet (called “invisible” in French), 1810s.

And the problems born by the (somewhat slightly exaggerated) beaked bonnet. Image by Charles Amédée de Noé (1818-1879), known as Cham.
