Waddup homies I’m kahli.
Originally from Sydney, I decided my head was too big for that small beach town and I needed to be wonderfully humbled in London! (So far so good!)
Working freelance within the fashion realm I have dabbled in fashion/conceptual styling and photography for over 10 years now. Admittedly I have struggled to push myself to the next level with raging imposter syndrome but this year- the next 6 months- I hope to utilise my fuck you attitude and make more art until my eyes bleed<3 ANYWAY BUCKLE UP AND HERES MY TEA.
the coolest bitch ever
this is the online bit:
All the cuties are wearing them ! The infamous tabis that originated from my favourite place ever, JAPAN<3 I love a good second-hand designer find but Margiela IS PRICEY. I found a sustainable option for everyone so please tell him I deserve 10% profit for my services. All handcrafted and made with calve leather these are incredible quality for the price and the difference is unrecognisable to Margiela. We all deserve to serve cunt !!!!!!!
★ BUYING 1 EURO HOUSE IN ITALY>????!!!!!! ★
Soooo if it hasn’t popped up on your tiktok yet you probably haven't been gasbagging about living in Italy every 5 seconds like me!!! I’ve been doing some research and personally it sounds like a vibe but there are som t&cs, one of them being you have to renovate within 3 years of purchase- but like who’s down? Here’s a tiktok to confirm my delusion with an equally delusional male selling an e-book on how to! My dream is to start an art residency so all my powerful and funny friends can come and create/ be silly....

★ GOODSHIRTS ★
Growing up traveling to Bangkok twice a year to visit my mum's family, I always found myself wandering around giant malls and markets with the most bizarre shit you’d ever see. Most of the time I’d leave with a stupid meme shirt and a pirated DVD. When I came across goodshirts on Instagram last year, I found myself sent back into that memory of chaos and phrases lost in translation. Some are not for the faint-hearted but I’m constantly PISSING at the brains of humans. You WILL see me this summer in my array of slogan shirts and YOU will wee yourself x
this is the irl bit:
☆ QUITTING TOXIC WORK PLACES ☆
I recently walked out of a job that was NOT serving me mentally. I’d bring home the drama, I’d dream about it and constantly try to make sense of it????? What is the point of HR... I’m done with being gaslit by these money hungry companies and everyone else should be too. Life is way too short to stay in toxic environments that don't serve you. I know it's easier said than done but wow THANK YOU to my friends who supported me. I will now attempt to be my own boss for the foreseeable future and never ever put my body/mind under that much stress again. If you are experiencing the same shit GET OUT- REACH OUT@! I LOVE U
☆ CHARITY SHOP MAP (W.I.P) EXCLUSIVE LINK ☆
Since arriving back in London (post pandemic) a lot of the charity shops I used to hit are targeted and wiped clean before I step foot out the door. In saying that, I’ve found a few that always deliver and wanted to share with some of you cuties as I’m not a fan of gatekeeping and want everyone to find treasures. I think charity shopping is one of the most relaxing things to do (personally) but I have friends who find it very stressful, so hopefully, with these little gems you can have a seamless and fruitful thrift session. I am also available to do the thrifting for you- website coming soon!!!!!!!!!!!
☆ ITALIAN MEN (I'm obsessed with Italy) ☆
OK I just got back from Italy, SUE ME. If you’re feeling shit and need a little pick me up, I swear to god go to Italy. Sit at a cafe/ restaurant and you will have several beautiful men come to you and offer their hand in marriage. My insecurities went flying and my ego was enlarged tenfold. Obviously I don’t condone harassment and also straight men give me the ick. In saying that it just hits differently over there and I cannot wait to return to smoke cigs, look mysterious, and be hands-free fed by an Italian god.
ciao BELLAS!
