OMFG -- I am in *LOVE* with Christian Dior's Fall 2010 Preview of WWI+WWII INSPIRED FEMME FATALE PRINCESS SOLDIERS! SoHo, Autumn, 2010... I am gonna destroy you just like I always do-- but this time... even moreso than ever before. God, I love the über feminine lace frill skirt, dainty silk ribboned cableknit cashmere stockings, Victorian-era reminiscent war-purse, pearls statement necklace with the tailored military issue petite silhouette.
A Brief Dissertation Regarding My Officially Prescribed Case of Fashion OCD
I honestly love clothes so much because it is so much fun to put on costumes, selectively portray by scrutinized analysis-- specific facets of one's persona, whether it be a subgenre of one's ego, a branch of the id, etcetera.
When I first heard the advice of putting myself in someone else's shoes to better see & understand what their lives are like... I took this advice literally & further onto the next level. I enjoy putting myself in other's entire outfits, adopting their sense of a lifestyle & thus encompassing my ever expanding wardrobe.
Vintage clothing, rare accessories, one-of-a-kind trinkets & other subtle scene stealing oddities are my preferred souvenirs from my local journeys & world travels.
@ the newest NYC SoHo hotspot - "Pajama Bar" where all the attractive, creative, talented young & aspiring 20-somethings arrive in bedroom stylings.
I like my at-home clothes attractive cozy comfortable warm inviting polite kindly down-to-earth approachable simple with an understated modesty but undeniably high class high quality fabrics appearing coolly soft warm in classically old fashioned design.
& Should I ever venture outdoors, I like for strangers to feel a bit sleepy should my presence meet their gaze. As if presented with the calming company of The Mr. Sandman, himself-- having escaped the lands of dreams & indulging in leisurely constitutionals in our third dimensional universal realm of reality.

A&F NYC
Sometimes I always fall back into that suburban, rural cool Northeastern weather mood with Abercrombie & Fitch. I have experimented & field tested out many brands & fabrics... and it goes without saying that Abercrombie makes the best sweats & rugged jeans I have ever felt. (or at least could afford)

Hairless bears are so bad ass, tough, unusual, bizarre, frightening, reminiscent of demonic beings spawned from the relentless hellfire storms of Lucifer's dominion itself. I adore them so much that I wished upon yesternight's first evening star for a legion of them, preferably numbering in the thousands!

This photograph really struck me because this is *EXACTLY* the angle & visage that my distant memory conjures whenever I remember my old friend, Laura. This portrait was taken by her friend, Lou Bedlam.
P.S.
If you couldn't tell, I really think highly of Laura. She is the leading heroine in my story-- & as far as my story's progressed, no other girl I know leads a braver life. Thus, she intimidates, impresses & ultimately inspires me. Her success, drive & impressively minimalist lifestyle are the standards that I measure myself against. So my memories propel her to pedestals, thrones & crowns of Olympian heights.
I hate being poor cos if I had money then I could visit her & be able to see her again in her newfound settled city of angels. + I could see Caitlin, Kay & maybe even Kate Wolf.
