a week ago, Shua posted this watercolor to his blog, and no one has commented on it. there's no accounting for taste. maybe it's the difference between fashion illustration and personal style. this is how i actually dress -- i went to work in this and felt great all day. maybe it's kind of tame at first glance, but the suit has a nipped waist, a slight peplum, and turned cuffs. the tweed is a great weight and it's perfectly cut.

last year i set out to dress more like the characters is the first half of Vie héroïque, and i feel pretty good about accomplishing that. more suiting, more fitted pieces. that means less bohemianism, fewer pieces of random frippery, but i feel badass when my outfit is tailored. too loose and i feel like going to bedtime. i can't do any kind of creative work without shoes on, except dance.





i got brought to a cool-people wedding over the weekend and wore an LBD, but i looked like a bad bitch. success. i'll have to get that number up here.


this blog needs work.
