Zeppelin @ Aleister Crowley's House



 This concept is pretty much the backbone of the global goth aesthetic theme we are trying to cultivate for our new apartment. I can't seem to find many actual interior photos from Aleister Crowley's\ Jimmy Page's house,  the Boleskine Estate.  I guess that's okay because this way we are allowed to imagine it whichever way we want. Here are some pictures of how my make-believe Crowley estate looks and what kinds of parties we would have.

Bar Reference: chronicles de la drunkles.








Is it sad or ironic that I'm writing this post while hungover? A hangover that was curated on a Tuesday night at home where nothing was being celebrated? Last night Brandon and I had plans to go normalling at the grocery store but instead I decided we should eat a small amount of leftover Ajiaco chased by 5 cocktails. Totes puked.

PS. I'm not always such a drunken whore. Don't judge. You don't know me.

Here's our dangerous cocktail recipe: I call it "The February Fakeout"

In a lowball glass add:
1once of Monopolowa
1/2 once of Brandon's homemade llimoncello
1 giant icecube
4 oz of sodawater
splash of orange bitters
stir
drink
repeat


Anyway this post is supposed to be aesthetic reference for the bar at our house, not  chronicles de la drunkles.
 Soooo.......
We have a weird french door closet in the main room of our house. Instead of using that space for storage or putting a miniature office in there or whatever it is that other people might be drawn to we have decided to build out a bar.

First things first would be a coat of black paint on the interior so that the closet recedes. Secondly the fugged curtains fashioned out of a sheet will be removed.

Then we need to shop for shit:

Some classy old table type thinger
 One of those airstream soda water mahcines
Esque studio and No. 1 Son (Bar)barian stuff
A fruit bowl for limes
an ice bucket
Some horn tumblers.





There are a lot of choices so I made another ghetto moodboard:

Mario Testino's Home in Vogue






This place makes for some great Global Goth reference seeing that our apartment is also Mediterranean . I'm especially loving the weirdo bust from Pompeii or wherever next to some OP-Art.  Having thin bitches dressed in Bottega Veneta draped over velvet Milo Baughman chairs wouldn't hurt the scene at our place either. Mario Testino, for those not in the know is a HUGE fashion photographer you can see and read about the whole ordeal over at Vogue.
