GIFTS OF DOOM
I got the coolest package in the mail yesterday.
It was from one of my favorite bloggers, Eugenia Semjonova, the genius behind one of my favorite blogs out there, Doom.
Eugenia has, for very sound and understandable reasons, stopped blogging at Doom.
R.I.P. Doom, I'm gonna miss you a lot...you were so right about so many things.
At least you can haunt the Doom archives, living as a ghost in the Doomed world.
Eugenia has some awesome projects going on-she tells me she is currently on tour and has a children's CD out and an Italo-disco album in the works. Sounds like a blast and I can't wait to hear more!
The package itself was almost as exciting as its contents.
In the package were various adornments that Eugenia has handmade.
They all look like they possess some kind of magical power, right?
Eugenia also did this amazing picture of me!! Love it soo much!
Today I wore two of these special gifts, the spiked necklace & the flowered braid made of natural blond human hair.
Worn with a very old men's chambray shirt, Hysteric Glamour jeans, and my Martin Margiela sandal boots.
Thank you for your beautiful gifts Eugenia, and thank you for sharing the power of Doom. Best of luck in all of your ventures.
Good night all, I have to wake up early tomorrow-I'll be spending a few days in Los Angeles and New York over the next week and a half. I apologize if my posts become sporadic during this time, but I will try to keep you updated!

wow thats so cool
Holy shit I was just thinking when you were going to wear the Margiela open-toe boots again! I've got them in pastel purple and I'm always dumbfounded as to how to wear them. You, on the otherhand, always look amazing. This has to be my favourite outfit from you: simple, elegant, and with twist. Keep up the awesome work Jane!
P.s. have a look at my blog, I've just started, going to do a post about the aforementioned boot soon.
Wow fantastic items! And I love Italo Disco.
that headband is ingenius! i love the way this outfit turned out. i was actually eyeballing my dads jean oversized button-down shirt! your top looks fabulous

Say Doom one more time.
But srsly, spikes and real human hair? So interesting and wonderful and a little bizarre....of course you are all over them. Lookin' good Jane.
You had me at those Margiela boots! Love the headband, it's so ethereal.

I am obsessed with that cuff with the stones!
WOW! i love your hair, LOVE THE BOOTS and love the spike necklace! All such an amazing feat - now I should get packages like that too!!

What an amazing packageto get through the post.. Very exciting! There is just something so much nicer about recieving a letter, as opposed to just an email. I think everyone should write a letter to someone else (:
What beautiful pieces you got sent! So creative and pretty. Obviously you carry them off so well too..
I like the way paired such interesting items with a relatively laid back outfit so that you really notice them. Lovely post!

This one is beyond amazing, Jane. I love it.
God I love those Margielas. You look stunning. Those gifts are extremely unique. The headband made of human hair is really cool albeit a little creepy.

Wow, I love your outfit!
Love the outfit!
Do you want to party with the top models?
I FEEL YOU knows where its at:

Welcome!
What lovely gifts! The flower braid looks gorgeous on you.
Your looks and stature allow you to be so versatile in how you dress, that I believe you can pull off any ensemble! Hippie/boho chic one day, 80s glam the other...impressive.
I'm wondering what those spikes are made from...metal...plastic...real thorns? I am wowed by these gifts of Doom!
Your MM boots are killer. I have black MM "ovine wedges" that I'm currently wearing with nearly everything! My blog fans might get tired of seeing them, I'm afraid!
The photo of you putting on the boots: Something about the scale, maybe it's the short door frame to the right...plus angle of the shoot...anyway, it's quite eye-catching. :)
That's so nice of them to do that for you.
I love the head piece on you ;). It's super cute !!!
Nini
that's great!
that outfit is perfect, not overdone like you usually do!
Lovely outfit! I love the headpiece! What lipstick or lipgloss do you have on in these photos? It is gorgeous! LOVE!! XOXO
I really enjoy the work she sent you but her blog does not have a lot of dialogue about any subject, it is kind of boring.
Super cool headband!
U go girl!!!
Lovely!! I love all the things she sent you, and how precious is that box? So cute.
Oh my goodness, I have to say that Eugenia's creations are breathtaking! They look like a cross between fine art, sculpture, and witchcraft, with a little Norwegian folk lore thrown in. Beautiful! Love your whole ensemble!
