Bad Taste is Better than No Taste

Yesterday it was earrings, today it's rings.  I found last week, that annoyingly when I'm wearing anything on my fingers, I tend to fidget about, taking the ring on and off until I eventually I'll leave it somewhere and then curse the day I put on the ring and swear never to wear rings again.  I'm thinking I need some kind of reverse therapy to solve this problem by loading my fingers up with plenty of knuckle dusters.  It would involve a quick eBay search for job lots of costume jewellery.  And probably a virtual trip to Your Eyes Lie, a tee/accessories UK site that MOST people will find something to like unless you're resolutely anti-kitsch/graphics.  Their motto is "Bad Taste is Better than No Taste" but then I guess that's up to the eye of the beholder.  In my eyes, a cookie, a white rabbit, a yellow bowler hat and a giant gold beehive on a ring is no bad thing… but that could just be my immaculately poor taste…

  1. You know, I would wear the hell out of that beehive ring. The weirder, the better!
    I shouldn’t even look at the website, seeing that I am broke broke broke.
    By the way, that’s a Diana Vreeland quote, no? Or at least part of. I can’t really remember.

  2. Holy crap, I am officially no longer talking to you Susie for making me want that cat ring. The beehive one is good too. Dammit!

  3. discovering the YEL shop in Camden was a happy accident, i loved their tees and immediately bought 2. Unfortunately, they’ve both shrunk (washed on cold) AND have holes in them…i’ve owned them for less then a month. It’s not expensive or anything but primark crap lasts longer than that…

  4. Oh, those are incredible. I love big trashy rings! I go to Girlspot here in NY to fulfil my needs of that type.

  5. Oh! Silly kitsch jewellery is like my version of shoe porn, you’re really killing me with these! The unicorn, the hats, the grumpy cat..aahh!

  6. ooo such good stuff in one place, i like the unicorn too, but imagine thr sadness when you realise your sky scraper ring has snapped off somewhere!

  7. I adore these rings. I never way rings but i am seriously considering buying some of these. Their awesome.

  8. I love the look of the tees, but there’s no size chart – does anyone know if they run big or small, stretchy or not etc?
