Alidra Alić's Alice in Wonderland

These surreal oversize rings by Danish artist Alidra Alić, are inspired by the floral motifs of Lewis Carroll's classic 'Alice's adventures in wonderland'. No doubt they are the best accompaniment for the Mad Hatter tea party...
Alidra says: "The jewelery pieces are statements of art and are worn by those who dare". 
I find them to be so feminine and whimsical and although a bit eccentric, I think I would love to wear them and not even just to special occasions. It would sure brings magic and charm to the most ordinary events and outfits.
Would you wear them?

In addition to her contemporary work, Alidra Alić also creates a wonderful wearable pieces of fine jewelery that are available at SLOWFASHIONhouse.com

Friday Finds:: Alice in Wonderland

So... Have you seen Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland already?
If not - Run, Run, Run!!
100% of pure delight as you can expect from my favorite trio!

Well, I must prepare you though. If you await to see a 3-D version of the stories you well know by Lewis Carroll, you might find the plot a bit strange. The film is an extension of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass and starts when Alice is 19 years old and accidentally returns to Underland.

Saying that, the movie itself is a stunning work of art as from the characters, through the amazing live action technique and animation and to some such a delicious memorable quotes. Here are some:
"Off with their heads!" or even better "How would you like to have your head hacked off?" (the Red Queen),  
"I'm investigating things that begin with the letter M." (The Mad Hatter),
or my favorite -  "Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast" (Alice's father and then said by her to the Mad Hatter).

Now, enough said. Lets have a look at Alice wonders in Etsy.

Can't wait....

Alice in Wonderland is my favorite book. I've read it million times as a child. I've read several Annotated Alices and many books about Lewis Carroll.
I just love everything about it.
Now a new Alice film is almost here and what else can you wish rather Tim Burton as the director, Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter and, of course, Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen?
Have a sneak look at the official trailer. Now counting the days till March 5th...
