It’s still all about layering in Melbourne at the moment, as my previous blog post on the topic suggests.
It’s nice showing you how it’s done, I suppose because you take it for granted you don’t always think to show off how many layers you are wearing!
You’ll also notice that I have a new home wares addition: a porcelain phrenology head all the way from Germany. I just love it! As soon as I moved to my new place I knew I wanted to add various curiosities and this was one of them. I’m still learning about phrenology itself, but here is a brief explanation from Wikipedia:
“Phrenology (from Greek: φρήν, phrēn, “mind”; and λόγος, logos, “knowledge”) is a pseudoscience primarily focused on measurements of the human skull, based on the concept that the brain is the organ of the mind, and that certain brain areas have localized, specific functions or modules.”
I have to be completely honest and say that I just like the way that it looks, and that I’m not a ‘believer’ as such in this pseudo-science. I like things that have a curious history (as long term readers will know!) and I think it’s great to have things that are a talking point and that make you think surrounding you.
Or am I just a little bit strange?! I know you will tell me 😉
