i'm really happy that i took my parent's fela kuti CD, because his songs are incredible (please drag me for "discovering" him in 2015 because i'm literally a child lol, how was i supposed to know he existed). My favorite part in this one starts at 10:00, and it's really nice for walking and thinking too and i guess the jazzy part of it makes you just <i>feel </i>really good. </div>

i've been having a really nice, but really busy experience with my education, but also stresss because i'm feeling a lot of pressure to figure out what i want to do with my life ( I DON"T KNOW WHAT I WANT TO DO! TeLL mE WHAT TO DO!), and so i've been trying to escape into this really calming, absolute shade of brown-- which is weird bc i'm pretty sure brown is supposed to be like the ugliest color but... this is cute. </div>

<li>the looks are a really nice balance of eclectic and clean</li>
<li>those glasses... have changed my life since i saw them, and my latest goal in life is to find something exactly like them. they're so perfectly zenon girl of the 21st century/retro futuristic/60s cool older sister, that i'll probably have to give away everything i own but... you know.</li>
<li>i've never been a big fan of ruffles but maybe that's because i've never seen them presented exactly like this before</li>

my first day outfit was just like a shirt, jeans, and sneakers, because (i've said this before but) the first day is so stressful! and disorienting! that you need something that makes you feel physically comfortable, and emotionally stable- which in this case translates to simplicity.<br />
<br />

this is the outfit i've been wearing for trying to be productive and creative in the last few days of summer. it's loose and really comfortable and works well for the fluctuating weather.<br />
<br />
i kind of just found the <b>pink and yellow sweater </b><i>in my closet / i made </i><b>the white culottes / </b>and the <b>really cute delicious-smelling hello kitty candy bracelet that somehow matches the sweater (!) </b><i>was a favor from a friend's birthday party. </i><br />

i've been really loving the warm sunset tones of peaches and nectarines and all those stone fruits. i read this thing about how the most beautiful color schemes are the ones found in nature and i got weirdly excited about it. i think that (and drake) has been my main point of inspiration lately. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
i'm also thinking <b>a lot </b>about the vma's last night-- namely mtv's obsession with female "beef." the use of that word feels like they are so determined to reinforce the "angry black woman" trope through nicki minaj that they would posit a rightful criticism about anti-blackness in the music industry (one that continues to reward white people for the colonization of black culture) as a needless display of anger. it trivializes a valid discussion that needs to be had and makes it out to be a catfight i guess.<br />

<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it makes nicki seem petty and makes miley look like the innocent victim and before you know it, we're discussing her feelings instead of the very real issues facing black creatives. we're reducingas a 14 year old black girl who's trying to create a space for herself in the world, it makes me uncomfortable that the idea of nicki standing up for herself or other black women could easily be ignored because she's not being as polite as possible in the face of ignorance or hatred.<br />
<br />
i just finished that candy bracelet, and this post is over. it's so meta <33</div>

<br />
my outfit today was inspired by the leather, stripes, and silhouettes of acne pre-ss16. i also somehow ended up focusing in on the blue, which is a color i've been into lately. (no, i cannot stick to an aesthetic for longer than a week, if you were wondering-- i think i'm over it).<br />
<br />
i'm thinking a lot about color theory, and the use of analogous colors (blue, blue-purple, and purple) in the first two looks really appealed to me. the patterned overlays looked really modern and clean with that camel skirt. the red peacock-y dress reminded me of something 3.1 phillip lim would do/ something out of the 90s grunge revival. that red trench coat is <strike>the light of my life, fire of my loins</strike> pretty great too.<br />

Lately I've been spending a lot of time on the VFiles website. In a time when a lot of people are mourning the "death of fashion journalism and blogging" as interest declines, VFiles feels like the next frontier. The social media site/archive is a fresh perspective, a new method of sharing ideas that's dedicated to re-energizing the industry. </div>
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><img class="media-image" ng-src="/api/v2/image/media/556932/double" src="https://www.vfiles.com/api/v2/image/media/556932/double" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" vf-fade-in-img="" vf-images-loaded="$emit('tile.load')" /></td></tr>

</tbody></table>
The website originated as an source of fashion images, a way to present different ideas for a shoot or something; and the ethos behind that still remains on today's website: There are tons of archival photos from runway shows and print magazines that would usually be out of reach for kids who are interested in fashion (60% of VFiles users are under 24). <br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

In terms of being a kind of fashion encyclopedia, there's also the VFiles Data and Vnacular series that are really short (shoutout to that millennial attention span or whatever), interesting ways to learn about the big names in the industry, how to say mispronounced fashion words, things that are part of the rich, somewhat exclusive/esoteric history of fashion.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
All of their shows are available in the VFiles TV section and on their <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/vfilesvideo">Youtube</a> channel, where they have my two favorites: Model Files and Intern Files. I started watching Intern Files when I saw that this really cool VFiles intern I follow on Instagram was on it. The series follows a group of teens competing for the chance to intern for the company. It manages to strike this weird balance of reality television satire and earnestness where I feel like I'm getting some warped, hilarious version of the very real drama of the fashion industry.</div>

The founder of VFiles describes the website as both a community and a platform, the community aspect being the most interesting to me. All of the media that's on the website right now was uploaded by any of the<span style="background-color: white;"> over 78,000 </span><span style="background-color: white;">members. The setup of the website recognizes the different parts of the organism that are necessary for survival in the fashion industry, and allows designers, photographers, models, stylists, musicians, artists etc</span><span style="background-color: white;"> with similar ideas to connect. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;">As a creative on VFiles, there are a lot of opportunities to get your work out there if you can't do it in conventional venues by putting</span><span style="background-color: white;"> your stuff up to be sold in the VFiles shop, or applying to be a part of the VFiles-made fashion show. And the best part of this (though there are some flaws) is that VFiles users are the ones that decide who's chosen.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;">The footage from the shows of the past few years show a lot of really innovative designers, who have their own aesthetics and definitions of the "cool" that the fashion industry is obsessed with.

thanks 2 everyone who stuck through my 3 week hiatus while i was at a hippie summer camp where they took our phones away ;(. if you're wondering, it was a great experience, and i'm excited to get back into my regular rituals and schedule.<br />

or a few days ago when i was sitting on the floor of my room (as a hopeless teen does) and the light was streaming in and bathing the entire place in an orange as deep as the california fruit. i tried to get a picture, but my phone just whitewashed the entire scene. it either mean that i need to learn to appreciate the ephemeral when i can, or that i need an <i>actual</i> camera. </div>

<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;">it might not be possible to get the same effect from looking at nature pics online bc there's an underlying tone that it's not real until you live it and see it w your own eyes (and even then its being filtered and interpreted). </li>

there's also the feeling of getting lost, mostly the way its expressed in <i>picnic at hanging rock. </i>the unavoidable mountain faces, the daze of the heat, the physical manifestation of a deep internal confusion. </div>

it just occurred to me that i never really talked about the fact that i took a fashion class for this entire past year even though this is a fashion... blog (i think?) but it was a really cool, positive experience and i learned and grew a lot through it.<br />
<br />
i've already posted pictures of the <a href="http://velveteenstyle.blogspot.com/2014/11/you-found-sweater-on-ocean-floor.html">skirt</a> i made for my first fashion show. my last show was supposed to be for aw inspired by this moodboard i made at the beginning:<br />

i was kind of surprised that i was the only one in my class who went this route for being inspired by winter because most of the other moodboards were like "bringing color into the winter," but like winter is cold and hard, and the sooner we deal the sooner we get to spring lol.<br />
<br />

this outfit isn't at all weather appropriate but whatevr. the <b>red sweater </b>is from my <i>childhood, </i><b>the white shirt </b>is my <i>dad's, </i>and the blue <b>jeans </b>are <i>express</i>.<br />
<br />
i was kind of saving these for an end of the month playlist thing but these are just really good albums that are like the soundtrack to the summer months for me.<br />
<br />
<b>june: </b><br />

<b>AM . arctic monkeys. </b>i listened to <i>so much </i>arctic monkeys in 7th grade oh my gosh. it was on a lot of best albums of 2014 lists so you may have already heard about it, but it definitely deserves all of the praise it got. the writing is all incredibly sleek and clever, the sound is like a funkier rock than their previous stuff i guess. i put it in june because of the way it kind of captures the brazen coolness of the first month of freedom (favorite song - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHoSRT2fNME">snap out of it</a>).<br />
<br /></div>
<b>july: </b><br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>the only place . best coast </b>has been my go-to summer album for a while because it's all laying at the beach, waiting for nothing to happen, angsty sleepy rock and it basically just plays in the background 24/7. (favorite song - <a href="https://youtu.be/QWb97XnEVf0?t=20m36s">do you love me like you used to</a>)</div>
<b><br /></b>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>mala . devandra banhart. </b>this album is swingy and lazy and hot and sticky thoughtful folk-rock which, not to sound ridiculous, is <i>all </i>i want to listen to when anything is winding down and i'm thinking about how i feel. but this album has also been the background to me just working, which is sometimes inconvenient because i just end up JAMMING. it's sweet and funny and completely unexpectedly beautiful. (favorite song - <a href="https://youtu.be/EH_OtOqrrAA?t=4m42s">fur hildegard von bingen</a> and because i'm a cheater, <a href="https://youtu.be/EH_OtOqrrAA?t=22m13s">a gain</a>)</div>
<br />
<b><br /></b>
also another really amazing album, but kind of feels more like spring and the attached concept of rebirth: the title of this song is from carrie & lowell by sufjan stevens which <i>i refuse to shut up about... </i>what summer albums do you reccomend?<br />

<br />
the book first describes her as dressed in rich "satins, and lace, and silks" that that were once white but have now become "faded and yellow," like the flowers in her hair and on her gaunt skin; the most fascinating character visually and in my opinion the most complex character in the entire book.(please email me if u want to talk about her!)<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img class="irc_mi" src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2011/11/04/article-2057429-0EA7A88D00000578-764_634x892.jpg" height="393" style="margin-top: 0px;" width="279" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this is what the 2012 movie says she looks <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2057429/Helena-Bonham-Carters-path-despair-Miss-Havisham-Dickens-masterpiece.html">like</a>.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
commes des garcons (fw05)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
patchwork-looking victorian lace and tulle shreds + the exaggerated paleness of the models' faces in this context add something ghastly. i really love the collars and the ruffles on the first jacket. they both have that timeworn yellow color.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img class="stretch-image" src="http://media.style.com/image/ts/slideshows/fashionshows/F2009RTW/JNGALLNO/RUNWAY/683/1024/00290fullscreen.jpg" data-reactid=".0.3.0.1.0.2.0.$774374" height="400" width="266" /> <img class="stretch-image" src="http://media.style.com/image/fashion-shows/spring-2015-ready-to-wear/paris/yohji-yamamoto/collection/1366/2048/_MON1599.jpg" data-reactid=".0.3.0.1.0.2.0.$875430" height="400" width="266" /></div>
<br />
miss havisham is also described in the book as having the look of a waxwork statue, and the silvery dustings in john galliano fw09 add to that image. the whole thing is really slinky and mysterious / rotting flowers are like miss havisham's jam; there's no train on the second dress, but it just feels like something that would be worn by someone absentmindedly dragging along random bits and pieces of rotting things with their dress.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img class="irc_mi" height="393" src="https://studiothreetwofive.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/theavelour07.jpg" style="margin-top: 0px;" width="275" /> <img class="stretch-image" src="http://media.style.com/image/ts/slideshows/fashionshows/S2007RTW/TAO/RUNWAY/320/480/00100m.jpg" data-reactid=".0.3.0.1.0.2.0.$619944" height="400" width="266" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
these two are kind of more modern interpretations: i love the sleeves of the shirt for the <a href="http://www.fashiongonerogue.com/thea-stratton-haunts-toby-knotts-latest-story-velour-magazine/">velour magazine</a> one on the left. the fabric in tao ss07 is really innocent and the bows and ruffles at the bottom add extravagance to the overall clean shape. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i feel like the last four (chanel s15 couture; cdg <a href="http://wiselivinginstyle.blogspot.com/2013_01_20_archive.html">fw1990</a>; cdg s12; junya watanabe <a href="http://velveteenflowers.tumblr.com/post/112970085277/fwek-junya-watanabe-fw-2000-2001">fw2000</a>)all have a really similar look in their drama. the pilled material that seems like it's stuffed onto the first and second ones looks like really soft insulation. the headpieces of 1 and 3 just make me think of the word goop (and seem to relate to mis havisham's decaying pile of wedding cake). also, they're all really obstructive, so the wearer is keeping everyone who wants to get close to her far away <i>which is literally her entire character. </i></div>

i don't have a tattered wedding dress :((( so i kind of had to pull together my interpretation of what miss havisham would wear (the best photo is the last one): i <i>DIYed </i>the <b>white button-up shirt </b>(lol i found it in my fashion classroom and then i shortened and hemmed it, and drew on it), it kind of has a scalloped collar, and i thought that was really cute; i just <i>found </i>the <b>lace camisole, </b>which was a softened layer; the <b>shirt as skirt </b>is my <i>dad's </i>to add layers; and i wore the <b>skirt </b><i>i made </i>underneath because i thought the strings would make it look like more tattered. <b>white sandal block heels </b>for like, stomping on hearts n stuff. i also wore this <b>silver necklace with a circular pendant </b>that i've had since <i>childhood. </i><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
the movie <i>picnic at hanging rock </i>is a really interesting movie about a valentine's day disappearance at an australian boarding school. i'm not a horror movie person, but this was one of those weird psychological creeping ones that i just loved even if i screamed when edith screamed. it's compared to <i>the virgin</i> <i>suicides </i>a lot because of the treatment of teenage grls and the unresolved sinister something going on behind the scenes. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
i have a weird memory of the movie because i watched it for the first time while making a bunch of yellow flower crowns as a costume for a school project, so now whenever i smell hot glue, i think of the movie (isn't science great!). another thing that reminds me of the movie is junya watanabe s2003 rtw (how bad was that segue?) </div>

<li style="text-align: left;">the florals and polka dots and airy blues just remind me of the summery innocent beauty that was a main part of the girls' characters. </li>
<li style="text-align: left;">the umbrella hats are reminiscent of the ones they carried to their picnic. </li>
<li style="text-align: left;">there were a lot of parachute straps wrapped around the models that seem like an interesting representation of the way that the girls at the school were confined.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">the backpacks and shoes, and the way that some of the fabrics were hitched up into pants that make me think someone made them when they were forced to climb or run somewhere and physically couldn't do it in their skirts all make me think of like, something frantic or desperate. </li>

if you guys have seen the movie, please let me know what you thought of it, or this collection's relation to it, and feel free to send me an email with your conspiracy theories of what happened in the movie because i love reading those oh my gosh!</div>

i wore the outfit to the left last year with a kind of grey, utilitarian aesthetic in mind. the <b>striped shirt </b>is <i>thrifted, </i><b>both sweaters are </b><i>from when i was younger, </i>the one on the bottom is like knit, and i'm not sure what fabric the top one is but it feels really slick and smooth, like something i would wear if i was ryan gosling in a movie where i end up leaning thoughtfully on a car idk. the belt thing is just a <b>shoelace. </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
when i kind of rearranged some parts of the outfit to align more with the look of a thom browne rtw12 (below), i tied the sweaters together and around my legs (not at all practical for... walking... or moving) and the <b>gray jacket on top </b>is my mom's. LOVE YOU MOM!<br />

<br />
can i just say that i'm 100% pro wool bullet bras. the idea of exaggerating the parts of the body that already protrude reminds me visually of rei kawakubo's lumps and bumps. i also love the shape of those shoes.i guess most of his clothes are like menswear and coat materials, and seeing the little satin collar at the top of this dress that looks like the lining of a coat made me smile a lot and think the words "thom browne you sly dog." in other news...<br />

<br />
this is like the answer to a jeapordy category called wes anderson movies and couture clothing: fantastic mr. fox fur stoles. also, the layering! the combinations of materials and shapes!<br />

<br />
this is one of my favorite thom browne collections: it maintains what i see as the aesthetic of his brand (disfigured, exaggerated silhouettes and his macabre color palette), but it also feels really exploratory, more relaxed. the tweeds and the elegant shapes of some of the looks also adds a feeling of couture wear that's interesting.<br />

<br />
this is incredibly cool, it kind of reminds me of saint laurent in some ways, maybe it's just like the elegance of it all, or the thing that almost looks like a <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=saint+laurent+neck+bow&es_sm=119&biw=1280&bih=592&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAmoVChMI7Ief5dOSxgIVxjasCh0ulAB6">neck-bow thing</a>.<br />

<br />
maybe it's the collar or the ruffles, but this reminds me a lot of marie antoinette and just the general costume of the aristocracy. this dress is SO beautiful: the layers and layers of tulle, and the hundreds (thousands?) of little mirrors on there ughhhh.<br />
<br />

the draping and shapes in this collection are amazing.<br />

i was thinking about how cool the red made everything look in <a href="http://velveteenstyle.blogspot.com/2015/01/and-im-talking-to-myself-at-night.html">this post</a>, and then i remembered that a while ago, i started putting together a red inspiration post, but never posted it. this also made me realize that i own barely any<i> </i>red clothing and this is kind of weird to me, because i really associate that color with power and conversely, vulnerability- and i feel like i need that color in my closet in order to feel secure or something: a red shirt, or skirt, or pair of shorts, whatever.<br />

for practical reasons, i guess it makes sense: red kind of upstages everything else you're wearing and doesn't fade into the background or complement what you're wearing like some other colors. but that's kind of what makes it so attractive, it's like a declaration of power, a monopoly over the complexity of your self, without even opening your mouth.<br />

what does it mean to wear red lipstick? my experiences with it as a woman of color are just a means of protest against the "your skin is too dark for that" or just plain old "the idea of you finding power in your beauty takes power away from me and that's too far" body-policing. sometimes when i need to psych myself up for something, i just put on a ton of makeup (red lipstick is the color of choice), look at myself in the mirror a bit, and then wipe it off and do the thing. </div>

i took the ACT yesterday; i wanted to wear sweatpants because everyone wears sweatpants for standardized testing on saturdays, but i don't think i own a pair anymore, so i wore these blue jogger type things that are strangely comfortable. i wore <i>that turtleneck </i>BECAUSE I'M AN ARTIST and i wore a jacket because test centers are notoriously cold. i guess white shoes are for contrast or something. </div>

i was having a really long conversation with a friend on the train ride home about clutter that started with me bringing up my drawer of things at home that i keep telling myself that i'm going to "make into art one day," but am slowly realizing are destined to spend their lives in said drawer. this all kind of coincided with me watching my first episode of <i>hoarders, </i>after which i cleaned out that entire drawer.<br />

we talked about how it might have something to do with the theory that you're more creative in cluttered spaces because it stimulates your mind and makes you create unexpected connections between objects. but that kind of requires you to maintain a certain amount of organized, teetering on the edge level of clutter, because at a certain point i physically can't work in that environment and i start panic cleaning. </div>

it seemed like on <i>hoarders, </i>i saw a distinction between people who hoarded plastic bags, receipts, food wrappers, and things that they couldn't bring themselves to throw away for whatever reason; and people who hoarded novelties, dolls, vintage items. of course i'm not claiming to have hoarding disorder, but a small part of me still secretly hopes that i'll fill my spaces up with this cool eccentric stuff and then become unrealistically famous, and have my room or whatever turned into a <b>museum. </b>i'm 100% aware that no one really cares, and what do i plan to do about all this stuff in the space between now and then, but i'm also wondering if this thought is just me or like the general human desire to want<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/11241-everyone-must-leave-something-behind-when-he-dies-my-grandfather"> to leave something behind</a>. </div>

maybe it's also just an affliction for all teenage girls who "want to make things," and are constantly looking for a source of inspiration or something to transform. mentally, i'm torn between the equally unattainable poles of a maximalism in which the fullness of the space would fold onto itself and become art of its own, if that's even possible, and a minimalism which i guess in pop culture terms is the yoko ono to the former's tavi gevinson? </div>

if i'm going to let myself spill out, i should probably admit that i'm even a little afraid that this post (this blog?) is just another form of clutter that i'm creating on the internet. not like in an incredibly self-loathing way (i think that my opinions are at least a little interesting), just in an "everything that can be said has been said more eloquently" etc way. </div>

i'm exhausted. i'm finally graduating after months of stress. i'm a little worried about not showing enough emotion with my friends who are leaving either because i'm too detached or because i never really gave myself the chance to develop connections with them; i don't want to just float from person to person, i want to have roots. but to be honest, i really don't know what i feel. i regret the most not being kinder to more people, but i guess it's a little late. right now i'm mostly thinking about where i want to go and what i want to do and how much of life is just waiting.</div>

<br />
but i am officially 14! every year i realize that growing older is pretty much a scam, i never <i>feel </i>any different; this time i almost forgot it was even my birthday because i was so stressed out by other things. but then each year i convince myself that it will be different the next time: i'll be 15, i'll be a freshman in high school, 16: i get to drive, 17: dancing queen!, 18: college?? the future is so close, so far. everything is uncertain. einstein's theory of relativity is v real to me @ the moment. (on a related note, please tell me your interesting ideas about time in the comments so i can learn from y'all. i no longer have an excuse for being so uncool in comparison to willow smith now that we're literally the same age haha. )<br />
<br />
anyway-- when i got dressed, i wanted to at least trick myself into thinking that i was growing, so i went for whatever the responsible, comfortable, mature woman of my future would wear.<br />

i went to the chicago history museum's FashioNext competition finale a while ago. the competition involves chicago high school fashion students designing and constructing something based on a theme (i think this year's was the history museum's exhibit: <i>fashioning the magnificent mile</i> ). the designs were incredibly cool and smart, but i didn't get any pictures of them bc the lighting was kind of dark. i did get photos of some of my favorite looks from the exhibit itself:<br />

this is a <b>pink velvet shirt </b>from <i>UO. </i>I wasn't sure whether or not to dress up, so i wore <i>UO</i> <b>mom jeans </b>with <i>thrifted </i><b>block heels </b>that apparently make me look like a granny (i'm pretty sure the person who told me that meant it as an insult lol)<b>. </b>if anyone complains about socks with sandals, you're grounded tbh.<b> </b>the pants are a bit too big, and i had to lend my plain black belt to<i> l</i> because she needed it a lot more than i did, so instead of just tying the <i>thrifted </i><b>pink button down </b>around my waist, i pulled it through the belt loops and knotted it. creative problem solving ftw. <b>silver watch </b>is <i>thrift. </i><br />

speaking of cute things! these! powerpuff girls overalls that i've actually had for a while but never got to show on here.<br />

i saw them in a thrift store i think in december but i was in the store for a specific purpose and didn't have enough money for it, so i let it go with a heavy heart tbh. but then i came back like a <b>month </b>later, and they were still there! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
they have really cute embroidery on the front:<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
but unfortunately, they are <i>made </i>for 6-year olds, so in the words of the woman at the thrift store who came out of nowhere to share this with me: :it's cute but it's a little tight on the fanny". oh well, i think i'm just going to crop it and make it like a denim t-shirt that i can still wear over something else.<br />
<br />
i usually wear it with my <i>thrifted </i><b>black reeboks. </b><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
<br />
<br />
another thing i wanted to talk about a bit in this post was the announcement that Conde Nast is turning Style.com into an e-commerce site and transferring all of the content to "voguerunway.com". and i kind of wrote this in response to something on <a href="http://www.manrepeller.com/2015/04/e-commerce-voguerunway.html">manrepeller</a> about it.<br />
<br />
(i just added some photos from fw2015 to make it easier to read instead of just a block of text)<br />
<br />
i've always been <i>into </i>fashion in the way that most people are into fashion: i like to look and feel comfortable, i recognize that there is a relationship between the way i feel about how i'm presenting myself and how i feel overall, my emotions, my attitude etc. but i don't remember when or where it was that i realized that fashion was its own universe but i know how. i had started reading fashion blogs because i read something about tavi gevinson in a newspaper somewhere, and when i went deeper into the photos on these websites, marveling at how much they knew about everything i found the websites where the photos originated from, usually: style.com and vogue.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="640" src="http://media.style.com/image/fashion-shows/fall-2015-ready-to-wear/new-york/and-re-walker/collection/1366/2048/And-Re-Walker-10-1366.jpg" width="426" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>[this look from </i>and re walker <i>reminds me of something a hip parisian women would wear in the 1920s, if she was also living in a daydream that looked a little like the dystopian future in the adidas x kanye show. ]</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
at first it was like a trivia game (i didn't know many people irl who i could compete against though), but i wanted to know everything: if i saw someone wearing something on the red carpet i wanted to be able to identify what season and what show it was from, i wanted to know what pop culture references influenced this look, to be able to chart the growth or identify the calling card of a certain designer. other websites like vogue encyclopedia helped me too, but i think that i drifted towards style.com more often because they had an app that i could download and i preferred the layout of their website. eventually i would go on the website regularly, to read old reviews and articles written by geniuses and look at beautiful clothing that felt like it was conceived on an entirely different planet and feel like i was part of it.<br /><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="640" src="http://media.style.com/image/fashion-shows/fall-2015-ready-to-wear/paris/beaufille/collection/1366/2048/Beaufille-004-1366.jpg" width="426" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>from </i>beaufille, <i>i really like the jil sander-ish minimalism. the contrasting layers, the continuation of the trend of turtlneck layering, and POCKETS! IN! DRESSES! the shoes are also kind of yohji yamamoto and exude cool-girl </i></div>
<br />
that's why i'm a little nervous about this change: i guess it reflects something that's been going in the commercialization of fashion (not as if fashion isn't already commercial art by definition, i just mean it's a bit scary to imagine abandoning what makes it beautiful, and at the risk of sounding incredibly childlike, magical) that reminds me of how i felt when meadham kirchoff was forced to go out of business. it's impossible to have an industry that wants to create something beautiful without falling into what is needed to survive, and style.com is simply being forced to concede to that pressure in the same way that every other brand is. that's just the way it is. e-commerce isn't that attractive/important to me for obvious reasons (i'm a 13 year old girl), but it's also to do with the idea of selling people a more "wearable" version of something that doesn't fit with what i want style.com to be (of course it already is that).<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="640" src="http://media.style.com/image/fashion-shows/fall-2015-ready-to-wear/london/marques-almeida/collection/1366/2048/MARC0415.jpg" width="426" /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>alien mermaids alien mermaids scaly green alien mermaids living on mars who crash-land on our planet soaking wet </i>(marques'almeida)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
the shifting tides away from the value of expert reviews with the rise in popularity of fashion blogs written by "LOOK! REAL PEOPLE" probably has something to do with this too. is there still a commercial value to reviews written by people who "know what they're talking about" in offices in new york, when style.com itself has created a whole generation of people who "know what they're talking about" in their bedrooms in the suburbs.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="640" src="http://media.style.com/image/fashion-shows/fall-2015-ready-to-wear/paris/off-white/collection/1366/2048/off-white-008-1366.jpg" width="426" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>this </i>off-white <i>outfit is deceptively simple, but the cutouts on the shirt and the slits on the <u>front </u>of the pants make it so cool. also suede boots are a staple of the runway 70s revival (if you want to call it that ) and they look amazing with this. </i></div>
<br />
idk the river of change never stops following and all of that stuff. i feel a bit like i did watching the series finale of <i>parks and rec: </i>i can't tell if i'm sadder about the<i> idea</i> of style.com being gone or about the actual things that i liked about style.com being gone (photos big enough to cry over, tim blanks and tommy ton, trend reports for someone who loves organization and patterns).<br />

i'm wearing a <b>black t-shirt </b>with a really cool texture from <i>the gap, </i>on top of a <b>netted black tank top </b>from <i>express, </i>with <b>blue mom jeans </b>from <i>uo </i>to contrast color. and then <i>thrifted </i><b>white sandals </b>that go with everything.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
talk to you soon! (tell me about your favorite met gala looks! the beauty that is rihanna's 100% self-aware resemblance to an egg yolk! lorde! the imperialist nature of the prompt for the theme (looking at China through an exclusively western perspective), how some of the outfits creeped into the territory of appropriation, and how inevitable (of course, still unacceptable) that was given the theme.<br />

hello! i would like to do an outfit post (practically) every day in may regardless of how much i planned/like my outfit, and this is the first: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
i've had my <b>shirt </b>since <i>childhood, </i>the <b>jeans </b>are forever 21, and the <b>shoes </b>in this beautiful shade of blue that's slowly emerging as my favorite color partly because in the first few scenes of <i>mamma mia! </i>(which i only recently saw despite the fact that it's literally an ABBA musical?) everything in the hotel is this beautiful, rich shade of blue: </div>

sorry if that run-on sentence was hard to follow but the shoes were thrifted lol. also on that shade of blue: i was stressing about having a dress for graduation (!!!) and my friend found <a href="https://www.papayaclothing.com/p/clothingdress/mesh-trimmed-halter-dress?1=1&color_id=374&size_id=2">this </a>for me:<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
l if you're reading this i love you because this is basically the perfect dress. it's sold out for my size atm but who knows, it's at least nice to finally have an image of what i want in a dress.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and a playlist:<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1. all we are / utmost good [super cool 70s-ish pop]</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2. got it / marian hill [a fun swinging sound with an amazing oboe solo]<br />
3. this is not about us / kindness<br />
4. fiya / tUnE yArDs [she sings "what if my own skin makes my skin crawl? what if my own flesh is suburban sprawl? what happens between us makes sense if i'm nothing and you're all, if i'm nothing at all" and it's all so honest]<br />
5. fourth of july / sufjan stevens [i was so excited to finally listen to sufjan's newest album: carrie and lowell-- he's one of my favorite folk singers and his dreamy, moving songs never stop amazing me. this is one of the more story-telling based songs about being with his mother on her deathbed and i definitely recommend it]<br />
6. i like to be alone / rachel trachtenbug [this is such a dreamy song and the video is like a <i>picnic at hanging rock</i> meets <i>x-files</i>]<br />
7. inky sea / laura groves<br />
8. soundtrack to <i>mamma mia!</i> [amazing overall but especially <i>gimme gimme gimme, voulez vous, </i>and <i>mamma mia</i>]<br />
9. dream (original mix)/ autograf [i guess if i went to raves i would want them to play this song haha because it's electronic and it has this strange literally bubbling feeling]<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
ok i think that's all! i hope you all have a bright and beautiful may <3</div>
