charlotte anne, i do understand

loving basically everything my bright eyes see. i'm so happy to be home after a long day - curled up in blankets, sipping chai with the windows open to the rain. we've been looking at puppies on the humane society websites & talking about decorating the new apartment nonstop ... so excited. possible names for my puppy: blixa, lucretia, witchbaby, stagger lee, sylvia, camille (my favorite prince alter ego, although it may be a little weird as one of our parakeets is named camilla ... ) and faust - really, the list is endless. can't wait forever always so in love with everything!

(surface to air via with asian stereotypes)

in love with these. adding to the (never ending, ridiculously long) "purchase immediately or regret FOREVER" list ...

when i was a teenage whore

basically every other day i get sick of looking at fashion on the internet -- everyone looks too young or old, everyone looks too purposefully messy or perfect, everyone is posturing, social status and blog comments and cattiness ... it's all so boring. so then i spend the day looking at photos of courtney love, or kathleen hannah, or siouxsie sioux - women who not only thought about what they wore, but also had a personal message behind those clothes - and i feel whole again.

sister golden hair surprise

leaving to go thrifting for the day - hoping for lots of white lace, creamy satin, and the usual shoe dreams ... we'll see, we'll see.

emulation:

stevie nicks / siouxsie sioux / courtney love / pj harvey

all of these women are so fantastically, singularly their own. and i, in turn, am completely fascinated by them. i like to think i incorporate a little of everything i love into the way i dress - the way i live my life - and, if so, these women are certainly centerpieces.
