The same vibe from here and here and here (except my real life moodboard involved more of the cheesy 90s girl power and this is supposed to be creepier.) (THESE DETAILS MATTER.)

I love your inspiration posts. I always try to draw upon them for inspiration in my own clothes, but, yeah, it never, ever works.
Awesome photos :) I love how they stand out and are so colourful :)

That whole fantastic twist on something that's supposed to be so innocent (ex: dolls) is just bizarre (but in a good way).
It's interesting to see such a sinister feel (very stepford wives/ studio 54) from such a pretty palette of colours.
I have enjoyed perusing your blog for a long time now, and have finally decided to start my own! Come visit if you get the chance... probably after your finals :) Oh, and Good luck!
I remember my mom and I watching the movie on sunday mornings. nice images.
Slightly creepy candy colors... I like it!

Good job girl! 90s Girlpower was awesome! We lived that thing, believe it or not ;)
This girls are so 70's and that is the best time for fashion, and my favorite one.
Hello Tavi!
I like this post, its very "Emily the Strange" :)
Do you respond to emails? (that wasn't meant in a snobby way) because I wrote you one a while back, and was just wondering if you got it :)
Love,
Justina

Ha well I was going to wish you luck for both. I just had finals before break. Hell. But you get through it and then it doesn't seem like such a big deal afterward. And yeah, staying off the computer makes a huge difference.
Even younger, the "TAVI" knowing behind the eyes leaps through! Old Soul in young bod I guess.
It inspire me in my blog!
Nice...now I want some Pixie Sticks and a jawbreaker.
All the photos are great.
The one with the white and pink pills reminds me of a game i played on ma gameboy when I was young. X]
good luck on finals

TAVI!
Love the mood....because I'm totally ready to kill myself over midterms too!
I am not really sure if I am serious or not....so.....
I absolutely love The Valley of the Dolls. My mom gave it to me to read in high school because she said that her mother stole her copy when she was trying to read it. It is wonderful though, and the movie is quite creepy!
naomi.

Fantastic moodboard! Certainly creepy. And you’ve created a really pretty combination of pastel and fluorescent colours.
Lastly, can I just comment on your remarkable use of the [bracket]!!! I mean… (stylerookie [at] gmail [dot] com). My mind is almost completely blown, but I… I can just manage 10 more words… Goodluck for your finals and for staying off the internet!
Thanks, Tavi :-))) <3
How do you do it? This post is amazing and even kinky? I can't wait to see the rest of your creativity. Everyone at my school loves your blog! I'm a noob, http://theartofdressingwell.blogspot.com/
This is a smart and creative collage.. you've got the point there (:
Good luck avoiding the internet, I find it incredibly difficult! Btw, am I being really silly? Is the girl in the bottom right picture you?

i feel like i shouldn't be saying these photos are so inspirational cause they are so creepy but i am anyway. because they are fabulous.

Tavi
Have you ever seen the show "Saved By The Bell" ? You post a lot of older tv show photos, and early this morning Saved By The Bell was on, and I couldn't help but notice the epic outfits of Zach Morris and Kelly Kapowski It's very early 90's style. I read your blog a lot and I've seen the Brady Bunch, The Wonder Years, Daria, and I'm sure others. Anyway, I just thought of you for some strange reason when I watched it!
Good luck again on finals. And not using the internet.
Cool pics Tavi. Ever thought of blogging about Alexa Chung and Agyness Deyn. Im sure you make it a great read.Keep up the great bloggerlishessness...lol
Regards Lebohang Eclectic (vintagespillage.blogspot.com)
That book is so engrossing. Beyond The Valley of The Dolls is beyond amazing. That movie has everything.
They all remind me of lollipops for some reason! Hahaha, I am visiting this page for the first time, and I must say: you are quite incredible. I also do fashion blogging and I would literally DIE if you commented on one of my posts!
hi tavi, i know you have been looking for a pair of velvet platforms, and while i was browsing ebay i found these beautys, unfortunately they wasn't my size, but maybe its yours

I love the Big Gulp, great 80's touch to a 60's look...
i love the acid-y colours of this, ny favourite pic has to be number 5
As a Doll myself, I cant help loving this post! xoxo!
So. Much. Candy :D
And good luck! I've got exams too, *sarcastic hurray*
Mmm mm dreamy, I do love the creepy 60s Barbie vibe o'course.
I always love your looks! I found some amazing looks on http://www.hauteshopla.com/ designer goods up to 70% off!

Duuuuuuude, this may be one of my favorite posts ever. Drugs and color... Unf.
That last photo really does look like you. I think you aren't really into makeup tho (why is that?) which is why I'd love to see you do something outrageous, like impersonate Leigh Bowery. More importantly, its obvious from your latest posts that you are craving to dye your hair some wonderful unnatural colour, so why not? You can always tell your parents that the internet told you to do it.
C'mon Barbie lets go party

Your inspiration posts are wonderful. I'm just starting my blog, and yours is going to be a big source of inspiration.
I love the way candy in piles can evoke so much emotion...
I used to superglue piles of old pills together for sculptures.

oh! amazing pictures! ou yes! lovely!kisses from porto!
Dear Tavi. It's my 21st birthday today. I was browsing through Facebook aimlessly when I found an album uploaded by one of the boys I used to go to school with, with pictures from when we were children. Probably around the age of 12 or so. One of the pictures were of two of the boys in my class, Victor and Filip. Filip had commented on the picture. It said: "Fuckin hell I fuckin look like Kaboom here or somethin! lol :P" When I read that, I remembered. In 3rd-6th grade some of the boys in my class used to call me Kaboom. They did this because once, in PE which I hated, we had to run laps. Usually I would be able to get away with it, but not this once. It was extra bad because it was sports day. My teachers forced me to enter, saying it would be fun. I was shit scared. I was panicking. I wanted to cry. But I ran that lap anyway (and ended up last, finishing 10 seconds after everyone else). And it was after that, that I realised I needed to get a bra. Because as soon as I got back to the audience bench, all the boys laughed at me and shouted "Kaboom! Kaboom!" and gestured at their chests with circular movements. That was 9 or 10 years ago, so I obviously thought they had moved on to better things by now. But no. I find out, through Facebook, that they STILL call me Kaboom. I'm STILL the girl with the boobs in need of a bra to them. I know it's stupid to care, I haven't seen any of those boys for maybe 5 years, and while they haven't changed one single bit, I have. I am doing what I always wanted to do: I write. I'm still at university but I study in London (when they are stuck still in that suburb of Stockholm where I once ran a lap without a bra on), and I'm a hired writer, a professional. While none of them have reached higher education, nor gained the careers they wanted. (Also, the boy who wrote that, about Kaboom, has got his arm full of ugly tribal tattoos, which, I'm not gonna lie here, does make me feel enormously better than him.) BUT I still can't walk away from it unaffected. I want to. IT'S MY BIRTHDAY ffs. Why did I have to read that TODAY? Any other day. Why TODAY? Anyway, I just wanted to say that I was in despair and felt useless and lousy and hateful, so I turned to your blog. And it helped a little bit. So thank you Tavi. That was all.
Adorei, sou do Brasil e simplismente amo o seu blog!

Amazing post !!
check my blog ;)
Hi Tavi. It's BB.
I'm leaving comment because
i just want to know about
the 3rd photo.
I'm very interesting about it
because i'm Korean and it looks like Korean symbol.
Interesting post - I like the way the textures+colours of each picture contrast the next. Makes me think of a series by one of my favourite NZ photographers, Anne Noble, of a little girl eating candy - creepily close-up, saturated images.
Here's a link, if you're interested! enjoy : )

Intense, but why the pills Tavi?
do you care about beauty? or is it all about fashion for you?
