Cockroach Shmockroach
I’m obsessed with jewelry made from things that shouldn’t be jewelry, like this amazing piece I found at that pawn shop where they keep the Gimp in the back room. The people there were SO cute and nice and really authentic like folk art! Isn’t it Gorgeous? Look at the detail!
Plus they’re not meanies like those psychos at Tetanus Jewelry, who sent me so many nasty and abusive comments last week and won’t allow even ONE negative comment on their own blog. Not even the words “Hahaha!” God, people are disappointing sometimes, aren’t they?!
In other exciting jewelry news, I took out my nose stud and put in a little ring or hoop or whatever it’s called. It looks a little stupid but change is supposed to be good, even though I’ve never believed this and still don’t.

When will you start selling your own jewelry, because I totally NEED that around my neck ASAP!
August 15th, 2010 at 11:09 pm
Give my regards to Zed.

Awesome necklace Sister Wolf! Can I get it in silver?
I changed my stud to a ring a little while ago – takes a little bit of getting used to (it would vibrate and tickle when I walked on hard surfaces) but my workmates accused me of being “goth”. Dear lordy the ignorance made it worthwhile.
August 16th, 2010 at 1:19 am
Totally, achingly, rad
August 16th, 2010 at 2:15 am
Zed’s dead, baby…..
You totally rock that neck thing bad.
August 16th, 2010 at 2:42 am
But, but SW? I was hoping the next time you posted a pic you’d at least be showing off the watch.
Then again I guess, cockroaches and contest watches don’t really go well together.
August 16th, 2010 at 2:49 am
Oops. I guess the cockroach color threw me off – crocodile heads (if that is what it is) don’t enhance fine appearing watches.
But you could mail that hideous thing to me SW, here in Arkansas we would solder a hook on it and troll it behind a boat. It would be great for catching those bottom-dwelling catfish.

Fuck your hair is ugly,so us all a favor and get a haircut
August 16th, 2010 at 2:51 am
Ha ha ha ha. Brilliant.
August 16th, 2010 at 3:17 am
If this is supposed to be a piss-take of a certain weird jewels-lover, you’ve succeeded admirably. It’s too cute!
PS She posted this on Twitter….’Tripping out on how much life has to offer! How can people dilute their enjoyment of life with drugs, sleeping in, and negative thoughts??’
August 16th, 2010 at 3:23 am
Well, you know… they do have the word “anus” in their name….
Just sayin’.
Is there a awesomely rad ring to go along with that amazing piece you have curated? I have the coolest Alex Wang shirt to rock with it!
August 16th, 2010 at 3:40 am
Amazing.
August 16th, 2010 at 4:08 am
Zed’s dead baby
August 16th, 2010 at 4:14 am
Hahahahahaha – priceless!
August 16th, 2010 at 4:41 am
IT is crazy, bold and I like it. I wish you could find a way to make cockroaches work. And the first paragraph made me giggle.
Hope you are well.
August 16th, 2010 at 5:12 am
This recent post completely cracked me up!
SW, you are the best thing that ever happened to blogging! I look forward to your reactions and responses and for the most part they are truly entertaining.
You are the perfect contrast to the staged images of clueless bubbleheads that would smear a turd across their faces if it was fashionable! They TRY very hard at being cool.
Thank god you’re here!
August 16th, 2010 at 5:17 am
“really authentic like folk art” – that alone had me chuckling to myself for a good minute, never mind The Piece itself. Nice work SW!
August 16th, 2010 at 6:04 am
Has this been featured in one of your refinery 29 contest entries? If so, I think it should.
August 16th, 2010 at 6:28 am
Zed’s dead, Wendy. Zed’s dead.
August 16th, 2010 at 6:58 am
Tell Maynard I am thinking of him…
August 16th, 2010 at 7:42 am
Ps. I hate change too. Are you a Virgo? I am a taurus and have a whole array of virgo friends, because they tend to dislike change, and help me clean my house.
August 16th, 2010 at 7:42 am
You’re killing it!
August 16th, 2010 at 10:11 am
RAD.
August 16th, 2010 at 11:37 am
lalamoomoo, SW is clearly a babe so rather than her trimming her locks, why not trim your caustic tongue instead you terrible bastard.
August 16th, 2010 at 11:53 am
Being a UF grad, of course I love your Gator pendant.
A few months back, I tried to take out my nose stud and put in a hoop, but just like socks with heels, I discovered that I love it on everyone other than me.
Oh, and lalamoomoo – being that SW’s hair had nothing to do with this post and that’s the only shit you are capable of contributing to this blog, may I be among the first to invite you to go fuck yourself.
August 16th, 2010 at 12:16 pm
Troll in L.A. -My hair rules, so either kiss my ass or sent me a picture of YOUR hair. Thanks!
August 16th, 2010 at 12:19 pm
Deepstill -I don’t know if I can get used to it! I had a screw before…I’m not sure which is more annoying when you blow your nose.
August 16th, 2010 at 12:20 pm
MArky – I know! It’s totally dead.
August 16th, 2010 at 12:42 pm
A severed baby doll’s head in the ‘gator’s jaws would like, make that outfit TOTALLY RAD!! It would, like, be a statement on … uhm … like … intellectually stuff! OMG! Your like totally killin’ it! Awesome! Your going to have such a cute day when you wear that! Your a f’ing star!
August 16th, 2010 at 12:54 pm
HelOnWheels – Ooh good call, I love working in severed baby doll heads!
August 16th, 2010 at 1:16 pm
Ah but before you get your baby head maybe you should check the onion’s debate on corruption in the baby skull trade. It’ll really make you think, by the way i like the y front cowboy picture behind you in the photo
August 16th, 2010 at 3:10 pm
Severed baby doll head! Severed baby doll head! Please, please, please!
August 16th, 2010 at 3:28 pm
Elvis is dead too!
August 16th, 2010 at 4:10 pm
that alligator head would make an AWESOME belt buckle…
JUST SAYING.
sister wolf, i am thankful that you exist.
August 16th, 2010 at 4:14 pm
missjackie – OH GOD, a belt buckle! AM I INSANE not to think of that?!?!?! YES, definitely. The belt will be priced to sell at only $600!
August 16th, 2010 at 4:43 pm
You’re too fucking funny!
xxoxo
August 16th, 2010 at 5:23 pm
Sister Wolf! I have some chicken bones from dinner last night somewhere in my trashcan! Maybe I should fish them out and cover them with lucite for some serious killer earrings! So cute!
August 16th, 2010 at 5:24 pm
@Sister Wolf: Rings, definitely, more annoying. If you get a really bubbly cold or allergy sinus pour, they can also collect pearls of hardened snot, and spin just enough to show it off at the worst possible moment.
August 16th, 2010 at 5:28 pm
you are my outfit photo facial expression muse. that puts you right up there with anna dello russo, carine, thigh girl and ace ventura. best dinner party ever.
August 16th, 2010 at 5:43 pm
theresa – I call this expression The Standard Glare. I’m so glad you like it.
August 16th, 2010 at 7:19 pm
But…. how can you be “killing it” if it’s already dead? This is the biggest fashion dilemma with deceased animals, no?
August 16th, 2010 at 7:21 pm
Kathleen – Not a dilemma, but a paradox.
Bad Kate – Shit.
August 16th, 2010 at 7:56 pm
Im practicing my Standard Glare on the college boys. so far, no takers. but thats ok. the look of fear is worth it.
August 17th, 2010 at 12:13 am
I’m just aching all over for that piece. It would look the shit on my dressing table next to my silver badger carcass bag.
August 17th, 2010 at 1:37 am
Your hair is beautiful!
When can I order a $600 alligator belt?
August 17th, 2010 at 2:11 am
sister, you rule!
August 17th, 2010 at 2:21 am
I want that red lipstick you´re wearing!
August 17th, 2010 at 2:28 am
Stella – Oh, you’re just angling for a discount on the belt!
BethUK – Carcass will be the must-have item for fall. Wait and see.
August 17th, 2010 at 2:43 am
Where is the pout sister?
Sea “acquired” the worst pout in the history of fashion, where is yours? Dead animal jewelry posing is nothing without the pout at the moment.
August 17th, 2010 at 3:11 am
NOT DEAD ENOUGH!

That alligator skull has so much personality. I think he should have his own blog narrative.
‘Alligator Says’….
August 17th, 2010 at 9:37 am
You curated the shit out of that baby crocodile head, and that’s why I read your blog. Bravo!
August 17th, 2010 at 9:56 am
You just HAVE to sell these on eBay once you’re done taking 4986574 pictures of yourself wearing it. I’d like to curate a piece or two.
August 17th, 2010 at 1:58 pm
Give um HELL SW. Just don’t forget to also bind it around your waist on a leather thong to protect your wolf pride. There now, not only are you curating, you are also multitasking and we call that a WOLF HOWL!
August 17th, 2010 at 3:10 pm
I luv you guys – and, of course, Sister Wolf!
August 17th, 2010 at 3:57 pm
that necklace is so CURATORIAL!!! I would like to buy it but only at a 300% markup because if not it’s not special and I can’t show it off on my blog!!!
August 17th, 2010 at 4:42 pm
SW, What color/brand is your lipstick? I know youve posted what it is before but I can’t find the post. TIA
August 17th, 2010 at 8:58 pm
Sister Wolf: I’m new to your blog – a pleasure to read. How do you feel about embedding rat fetuses in resin? What about rat droppings? How about casting said items? How edgy-cute would it be if these are affixed to to cuffs or headbands, perhaps? Are headbands passe?
August 17th, 2010 at 9:03 pm
Gretchen and I were just having a drink talking about you! Your negativity is inspiring! I’ve never felt better in my life than when I was talking shit about you and your blog!
August 17th, 2010 at 10:05 pm
Monique – Hahahahahaha! Well then, keep it up, Jethro or Tet Anus or whatever they call you out by the still!
August 17th, 2010 at 10:09 pm
moldy enchalada -God dammit, it IS curatorial. How’s $600 for you??
Tanya – I have to say I don’t feel good about the rats or their droppings. However, edgy-cute is a term that gets me excited. Could there be glitter in the resin??
August 18th, 2010 at 7:23 am
SW: Glitter is an absolute requisite for edgy-cute. Good call.
August 18th, 2010 at 7:28 am
One of my pet rats just died, I had better not tell the weird cockroach people or they will try and buy her from me to use. Ugh.
August 18th, 2010 at 7:29 am
Nati Hell – win.
August 19th, 2010 at 2:15 am
Is the Gimp for sale? I think it would look cool in your living room.
August 19th, 2010 at 9:45 am
Wow. You are really blazing a trail on the fashion frontier. Or something.
Do you think that if I procured an alligator neck piece and wore it with my alligator dress (“Chris” Kane for topshop) it would be too much?? OverKILL?
bwahaha
August 21st, 2010 at 6:13 am
so cool!
November 23rd, 2010 at 10:57 am
Tet Anus Jewelry are ripoff artists by the way.
November 23rd, 2010 at 11:17 am
Tetanus Jewelry…is a rip off artist. they were my designs, but at least mine looked more professional. i know in biz you have to deal with that but this person i have know for 15 years…….and busted out with all my designs. whatever, just glad someone called him out. thank you. the sad thing is i feel bad for writing this but fuck it. don’t let the negative comments from them get to you…….your beautiful and yeah hellooooo that piece your wearing is amazing darlin. my friend had a beautiful money head necklace you would shit. hahaha. good luck to you. yeah and the cockroaches suck.
November 24th, 2010 at 1:07 pm
