this entry may also be titled: THANK GOD FOR LEAH WESOLOWSKI!!!!
the mood may also read: i want to burst into flames. gay ones.
i am not even kidding you! thank you to leah for sending me a password to www.wgsn.com and giving me such insight and inspiration for a) this fashion show - i found an article about designers in London who are doing the same thing as me with recycled/deconstructed clothing design b) for helping me with my "market research" portion of my history of advertising class, now i can prove to my groupmates that men DO buy women's jeans cos it makes their ass look h.o.t.t./flat. haha. it's true i some cases. and c) for the youth/junior section which brought me to the link polaroidscene.com which has so many beautifully put together kids that i want to scream and then pluck them each, one-by-one from their aesthetic grape vine and eat them all up cos they are so inspiring and SO HOT!
FACT: the kids who listen to interpol are not only automatically cool for their love of such a great band BUT....THEY ARE ALL HOT! i'm seriously not over this. maybe it's the time of day. maybe it's my anticipation for the weekend. maybe it's cos i'm lonely and i'm moving away and anticipating the people i'll meet in vancouver. whatever the reason is, my heart is racing with excitement for this glorious website.
made a few more skirts last night. some turned out pretty dope. one turned out really weird, but hopefully everyone can agree that it was in a good way. and who said that RED, WHITE, & BLUE had to mean america!?!? maybe i just like the color scheme together. i'm not being patriotic about anything, it just so happened that these two garments fit well together for me make something fantasmic out of it.
it reminds me of this guy Evan i used to work with. He has a rainbow tattoo around his arm with the "8" connecting it all together. I remember going, so did you tattoo that because you wanted to represent "gay pride forever" and he's like, "NO! Whatever, why do all the gay kids get to hog the rainbows??? STRAIGHT PEOPLE LIKE RAINBOWS TOO!"
and yeah... gotta love the internet. webcams. communication. technology. beat mastery. how else would i be listening to my good friend rollie rap right now? (see music)
