You look like a gypsy. Want to lick my crystal balls?

The Dark Crystal by Jim Hensen.


Ahh weeds. I think I have been watching a little too much of it lately. Im up to the end of season five and have a serious obsession with Andy Botwin and Doug the accountant. Ah-mah-zing.
Anyway another thing that I used to watch relentlessly was The Dark Crystal. My awesome sister just bought it for me and I have been reliving my childhood tucked into bed on sunday nights. Very enjoyable indeed.
So O.K. crystals. Apart from that epic film i've always thought they were pretty damn ugly and only for hippies and strange folks who hung them out on a full moon to recapture their full powers (whatever they are apart from sitting there like the inanimate object they are). I am now ready to feast on my words. First there was the sadly passed genius Alexander McQueen's crystal boots. Stunning and with an incredible shard of crystal for the heel. Now Stylist Tamilia Purvis and Art Director Melanie Kamsler have started a range of jewellery 'Mania Mania'. Glorious pieces that are using crystals in a truly fab way. I am in love. I have my peepers on 'The Immortal Ring' and the rest of the collection too might I add. Check it out here but get your credit card ready. The crystals will get ya...
