thinking about isabelle blow always makes me a little sad and i think we should all say a little prayer for her soul and her memory right now

Aubrey Mayne said...

Oh brother...the 90's are officially back. Do you guys remember those glitter butterfly clips that would flap around when you walked? oh...memories!

That hair clip is the best thing since Isabella Blow, who is the best thing since sliced bread. (RIP)

They did say butterflies are for ever!

Have loved your blog for some time, finally commenting. Nice to see someone doing what they enjoy!

greatest fashion blog!!! greetings from Mexico.

When Winona showed that butterfly piece, the first thing I thought of was McQueen. But it's more wearable so very brilliant.

Taryn said...

I smell a DIY coming. These are fantastic!!

Lindsay Harrison said...

I want one! I used to wear feather butterfly barrettes all the time in high school and I was the only one doing it... Now they are back and I will probably be the only one in SW MO wearing them again!

Isabel said...

I can totally see you wearing one of these, Tavi. DO IT!

These are beautiful. I love butterflies.

thats a pretty sick hairclip! although I can't say I'm digging that butterfly on her eye!! it almost looks like its attacking her!

Lexi said...

Such a pretty clip, even though butterflies creep me out. Oxymoron?

TheShoeGirl said...

Aweeeee Isabella... RIP :(

RIP Izzy :(
I wore a veiled hat once a month that year in mourning.

I know everyone's doing it, but I'd be so flattered if you'd check out my blog:

Even if you don't, I love how aware and thoughtful you already are about fashion.

NOICE i just bought this. It immediately reminded me of the Phillip Treacy monarch hat that I will probably never be able to afford. Forty dollars is something a starving college student can handle. Thanks for the news, Ms. Tavster.


P.S. you are way cool. dont get a big head though you're still only 13 (???? HOW??)

ashley said...

the bottom one also featured in Bazaar recently, lovely!

Jonathan said...

thats so u, i really like it.

Ziad Ali said...

Hey, I thought I should let you know that I tired to email you wit the email address on the side -tavitoons@yahoo.com and the message kept coming back undelivered. So I'm not sure whether yu have made a mistake in your address or if its me.
Love your blog!

Sheik-Chan said...

Awww....Like a fairy whose hair summons the monarchs...

-ahem- They're pretty cute! I use to have those butterfly clips where the wings would move when you moved your head. Such a lovely bug.

Not sure how I feel about the second photo...Maybe if it were a mask..

miss unkon said...

Love it and wow so excited for the book too!!! Loev your passion too Tavi

Rebecca Jane said...

that monarch clip is beyond beautiful

Lexi-Lupa said...

I would totally wear the monarch clip. I absolutely love it! Th eonly problem is that I would feel kind of bad for wearing some dead butterflies. Not bad for myself, of course, just for the dead butterflies. But hey! They die in like, 3 days in nature right? Still rindankulous. Love it.
