A neighbour has a shy kid leaning against a wicker sofa in her front porch, completely visable to the world. Creepy as shit. It looks like she's locked a toddler in the porch.

OMFG that website. WHY? Just....WHY? :nerves:

I'd rather have to endure cabinets full of cutesy porcelain children, or the frou-frou collectable dolls that are forever advertised in magazines. ANYTHING but those disturbing, creepy fucking things.

They are the least comprehensible product ever.
If your back's against the wall, turn around and write on it.

Aside from the actual product being ghastly, the website is very turn of the millennium.

They are horrendous. And remind me of a painting my grandmother used to have on the wall of a large dog and small girl in a corner crying. Just, why?

I think that would be described as poverty chic?

It's fucking horrible.

Possibly just poverty. I can see why a photographer would like it though, there's a sense of drama about it. I just wouldn't live there if you paid me.

It's not anything chic....it's just sheeeeeet.

If you see the clothes she makes, the house makes a bit more sense. Look at her hair in the second link!

Apocalyptic drama. It doesn't look like somewhere anyone would want to live. Any more.

The ceilings look like someone died in the room above and wasn't discovered for months.
