Two of my favourite pieces from the Minimarket SS/10 collection are now available for pre-order at GARDE-ROBE.

The entire line of Minimarket shoes for this season remind me of the illegitimate child of Neptune and a tackily-decorated Chinese buffet on acid. And if I do say so myself: the sunglasses, well, if you haven’t been informed, I think they look a lot like the specs available from Slow and Steady Wins the Race which I adore. Much love, much appreciated, and I want them in my wardrobe.
Okay, I know I’ve babbled on before about this collection but it just hit me this morning that the line reminds me very much of Andre Courrèges 1967. I wasn’t around then, of course, but from what I know of Courrèges, he was revolutionary. He “invented” miniskirts, gogo boots, and he made great use of the space age theme which has to be my favourite of favourites. What do you think, though, does Minimarket resemble Courrèges’ space age? Who is going to be the next Pierre Cardin then?

The photo above shows a Courrèges design from the book ‘Andre Courrèges’ by Valèrie Guillaume next to two runway looks from Minimarket SS/10.
Are we off to another 1960s space age? Personally, I hope so because I’ve been waiting forever to live off of freeze-dried ice cream and wear funny rounded helmets.

I once had sex with an alien.
Was she quite sexy? Was it male?
It didn't have genitals so I don't know.
Anal?
Actually it was male.

Oh my. Dad you call it dad?
What are you on about Dad?
I'm not your dad, dad.
Fuck off dad.
lololololll
I know I am in for living off of freeze-dried ice cream and I wouldn't mind a rounded helmet either.
I'm tired of most food these days anyways.
What's your favourite flavour of freeze-dried ice cream? I like strawberry but chocolate is super. :3
google chrome doesn't like what you've done to your website. not one bit!
How so?
Can you send me a screenshot? - mail@olliecrafoord.se
Only a Geonosian would like these styles.
Oh, mate, only Northies living in Barrow-in-Furness would hate them.
They're a bit gay to be fair.
Barrow folk? Yes, they are. I hear they even have a broken fence.
That got mended. Don't bring up our dark past.
Oops, sorry.
this is what it looks like on my desktop with chrome:

this is what it looks like on mozilla.

and if you click the little info bars the photo or info slides out like this:

but on my netbook it looks fine on chrome and it doesn't have the little slide out info bars, it just has the info.
so weird!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It looks best in mozilla because that's what I use, haha. I think the sliders only work in Firefox right now. :/
We know about the font issues in Windows and we know about the sliders not working in loads of others but we are slow.
It's on the list! :D
Also, I just stared at the windows screenshot and my god, windows is shit. haha
don't make fun!!!!
It's okay, Tara, we shall make it look proper for you if we can. We were discussing the font issue last night, actually, and there's a solution.
