its really not often i see something and my jaw literally drops to the floor. last year for the races i "thought" i was being very uber clever and made myself a cage inspired hat (using recycled leather) complete with leather feathers. it wasnt 'enough' and last minute i added a crow which was just a double sided silhouette really. this year it appears i have to lift my game because that didnt even get close to as unbelievable as reid peppards TAXIDERMY head pieces and accessories. jesus christ, reid is an unbelievable jeweller (and this post sadly is not about the jewellery - check the website for that) but more about how someone takes a creature, which has sadly lost its life and gives it a new one, to be adorned by its brave owner. im talking REAL crow head pieces, REAL pigeon wing clips and head bands, there are even REAL fox clutches and REAL squirrel purses. obviously this isn't for everyone, but heck ...its so for me!!! i...want...one.....now!!! look at my version (cough, cough - which is so sad now ive seen this) and then at reid's amazing accessories. sigh.
me - not the best picture sorry.
jewellery is delivered in this amazing box - which you have to SMASH to get to the goodies inside...oh wow a wopping gold ring in that would really turn me on.
looks to be a pigeon (??) head piece....WOWIES so glam...
ahhh the CROW head piece worn masquerade ......i fizz looking at this
crow again...
article from the blog, yep that looks like a rat hat to me....
a real CROW clutch...every dark girls dream....
the fox clutch...not one to bring out around the 4 year old perhaps..these come with emerald eyes and other lovely additions....

i had some serious issues access the website but check the blog here!
