I want your love, I want your lovers revenge, you and me could write a bad romance

I've decided to use the massive amounts of time I will have this summer scouring charity shops and vintage markets (I <3 you proximity to London). I am the worst person in the world to attempt to dress myself, as I never know what I like, so I'm scouring the interweb for inpsiration.

You know what is win?! YOUR ICON. I'm snagging it. I LOVE YOU BOLLY/GENE AND A2A AND AHHHH.

I love how much you love fashion posts :D Do you read any fashion blogs?

THEY CAN OMG. How long do you have left?

[fionissima]

I LOVE THEM AND MISS THEM SOOO ♥. ;___;

XD Not really. Maybe I should start! I'm a huge fan of vintage ANYTHING, so I'd love to follow a blog somehow related to vintage fashion. I do follow a couple of Regency fashion (♥) blogs but you can't really fully reconstruct anything for regular RL use, else risk people in the street giving you funny looks *g*.

D: About a month or less. Last one's on the... 24th? I think.

Ugh, I remember reading about that photography. It just reminds me how fucked up the fashion industry is and how much of it is still 'expected' because that's 'just how things are done'. Also brings home how prevalent the policy of blaming the victim STILL IS.

Basically, people can defend the abstract concept of 'fashion' all they want but can't deny that the fashion industry gives minors money to become unhealthily underweight and get molested by photographers.

But really I should use these hostile environments as reasons as to why I should create my own world through my outfits, because a certain outfit totally puts you in a different placeOh wow, that's SO TRUE, I never thought of it like that! That really is what style is all about... Speaking of which, since you seem to make a bunch of awesome style posts every now and again, I was wondering if you could point me to any style blogs I ought to be reading? I'm stuck in a bit of a clothing-rut at the moment

Also brings home how prevalent the policy of blaming the victim STILL IS.Absolutely, THAT is what made me so angry, I think, because it's so easy to do, these girls CHOOSE to work don't they? They could say NO. Urgh, those attitudes show how either naive or amoral the people expressing them are. It's such an uber-capilatlist world, I think, with so much power at the top, so much of it abused, and all these little, anorexic girls desperate to be a part of it and doing anything for it, and thinking IT'S OK I'M NOT BEING EXPLOITED GUYS, because that's what's "acceptable". I love fashion so so much, but there's so much of the industry I detest

Oooh, thanks I'll spend a happy few hours reading those! I think all I want to dress like a the moment is Victorian hippie, which is a difficult look to co-ordinate.

You always inspire me to want to post about clothes!

[silvia_duchessa]

Have fun :) Do you have any interesting blogs too, actually, cause I'm always looking for extra reading! Victorian hippie sounds AWESOME. I used to know a girl who dressed like that, with so many layers, it looked amazing, and half her stuff was from PRIMARK, and I was like "wow, you have STYLE."

Haha thank you! Pleeeaassse do!!
