and well, Matt Dillon. hubba hubba.
I have mostly dressed for function, and then, Imagination!
I start with a theme in mind, and choose colors and a style to fit whatever dream, movie, object, nightmare...I woke up feeling like ....
the violet of the night sky....
whatev'
Allow me to explain.
Once, I wanted to be the sky. Oh sure, dress in Light Blue, you say. done and done.
It's not that easy, Jeff.
With me, I made a pair of pants from rainbow stripe fabric, and then topped it with a white fluffy angora sweater. so yeah...... fluffy white cloud...and a rainbow. True. Story.
I mostly dress like a mash-up of Miss Havisham/Morticia/Laura Ashley/a boy. works for me.
With this dress, clearly, some spider earrings, a pair of tall black boots and a little handknit 80s cardigan in black angora.
Other days....oh you know. Amelia Earhart.
Sailor.
Elf.
Beach bum.
English professor.
So, I'm only a bit ashamed/proud to be an out and out follower of Disneybound tumbler and on Pinterest.
They do exactly what I do, and have done as far back as I remember...that is, I dress my mood and I don't give a flip what's in or out of style. I stopped following anything in a fashion magazine one day when I found out that wearing Cover Girl make-up and Yardley's Twiggy Slicker lipstick, did not turn me into Penelope Tree or Twiggy ..(what is up with the English naming people for objects? I like it !!)
