VIVIENNE WESTWOOD & SEXY DYNAMITE LONDON: PUNK LOLITA SHOPPING, ORB LOGO.
God Save the Queen! We mean it, man! Sexy Dynamite London decided that Vivienne Westwood’s designs needed to be preserved for punk posterity. The Japanese and London brands squat together in Harajuku, in a store that combines SDL’s latest and Westwood’s greatest.
I wasn’t able to take sneaky photos inside the museum-shop, but you can see pictures in this previous post about Sexy Dynamite Queen. Both locations of Closet Child also carry secondhand Vivienne Westwood clothing, including furry skirts from the 70s and the original rocking horse shoes that Lolitas love.
Vivienne Westwood’s label logo is one of my personal favorites. The orb reflects that of the British Crown Jewels, while the planetary ring gives it a bit of a punk twist. The designer has always used a lot of tweeds and tartans, hence the nod to Harris Tweed’s signature logo

CUTEST SCOTTISH FOLD CAT EVER: FAT ROUND PUREBRED KITTEN FROM US CATTERY.
It’s been a year since my son Basil Farrow came into my life! He looks and acts like a teddy bear, but technically, he’s a purebred Scottish Fold cat from a Connecticut cattery. Not for sale, so don’t ask!
Basil Farrow isn’t only cute – he also has a ridiculously sweet temperament. He clings to me and wants to be petted all the time. Tummy rubs? You bet! I don’t think he’s ever scratched a human being… not even when I cross-dress him!
I don’t know what he likes more: chewing on catnip or being carried around by grandpa. You can get your fat cat fix on my YouTube channel and from his Facebook profile.
