Licca Tableware

I got this Licca Tableware last week from Yahoo Japan Auctions,
thanks to Dear ggsdolls and her friend.The set is in a wonderful condition,
seems it was never used before.
ggsdolls is a seller on etsy who sells vintage japanese dolls and toys.
She also has an absolutely AMAZING collection of japanese doll stuff, so you should have a look at her shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/ggsdolls

Andrea Kett or Superior Smut

A few month ago I discovered the great artworks of Andrea Kett, wich I want to share with all of you who like old style fashion illustrations mixed with modern, sexy freshness.
Ghoulish Girls and Droll Maids, Bloody Christmas Greetings and Detective Pastry.
♥She also made a marvelous Paper Doll Book
in wich I totally fall in love with♥
Her drawings reminds me a lot of Dame Darcy
( will do a post about her, too )
Anyway, have a look at her art on:

And if you want to acquire some of her drawings, go to her etsy shop:

The package I got from Miss Kett,
with 3 Ghoultide Greeting Cards, 1 Sticker, 2 Sailor Tattoos,
a Panty Claus Card and 2 Paper Doll Books ( one for my siter as christmas gift )

Paradox Shoes by Zalo

Saw those great shoes at etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/MsCharlie68
They had such cool stuff in the 80's, aren't they great?!
What a mess they are too big for me :(
May I should buy 'em just for my collection anyway

Here's their ebay shop

I searched for other shoes by Zalo and found out some interesting things.
They had made a bunch of "Paradox" shoes, with animal shaped, fruit shaped and floral shaped forms. You can still find some models on etsy and ebay for sure.

I saw another "fish-model" but I can not find the image anymore!

Add from google books:

And at least a very good news,

They may be a bit tight but that won't stop me!

I do need a compatible blouse yet ;)
...and I still have to find those Palm Beach Cars shoes in my size...
