Ringpop Love

Confession time: I don’t have a sweet tooth. I have a sweet jaw. Every tooth in my head cries out for delicious candy all the freaking time. I do what I can to ignore it, but sometimes…you just have to give in. Nowadays I’m trying to channel my subversive need for all things sugary into other, more constructive, avenues.

Ringpops are a blast from my early-90s childhood and are the perfect inspiration for summertime. Look at all those jeweltones and eye-popping shapes! Tell me those things aren’t meant for translation into fashion! I took a spin over to Polyvore and whipped up a couple of sets in a fury of sugar-fueled frenzy for your eyecandy enjoyment.
Also, if you know where to find these Peep-pops, pleasepleaseplease tell me! I’ll love you forever. They’re another one of my cutsie obsessions. [There may or may not be an awesome post about Peeps come next Easter. Stay tuned...]

What candy inspires you? Is there any other food that you think can be translated effectively into clothing expression?
