AZUMI AND DAVID SS07

Back with Azumi and David...
They've just released their SS07 collection...

NOTHING AS A PRESENT....BRILLIANT!

I think it's funny and brilliant... and somehow helpful when there's lack of ideas...
This is what's written on the package...

"You have received the gift of nothing. Absolutely nothing. This is the ultimate in minimalism. Less is more. More or less.
Nothing is precious. Nothing is simple. Nothing is sacred.
Open the pack and be enthralled when nothing happens.
Allow the nothing to flow through your mind and calm your soul.
Savour the moment. Soon you'll discover that nothing really is so much better than something."

FELIEKE VAN DER LEEST'S JEWELS

This is what Felieke says about her creations...

"Don't ask me why I do what I do... Don't ask me how I come up with the things I come up with... Don't ask me where it's coming from and what it means... Because I don't know that much...
What I do know is... That you can't get pregnant from a spermheart... That even a sheep can get red ears... And that some cockroaches like to dress up as an aphid or a ladybug..."

Flamenco Deer Señor Señorita del Sol brooch (textile, synthetic, gold)

Cowboy Lion Cubs necklace (synthetic, gold, textile, glass)
