5.7.2007

this look could rightly be called "dirty-windblown-high-street-paris-sightseeing-style-a -la-tricia". my hair was one with the wind.
i'm getting pretty bored with this uniform of mine (it's popular world over!) but it's comfortable for traveling through europe (amsterdam, paris...and starting tomorrow antwerp). i predict changes upon my return to SF. it's time for a shift...i feel changes coming on to my aesthetic. been wearing this stuff for years, before it sort of went uber-mass, and now i'm sort of getting sick of it.
(eta: maybe i was getting sick of it b/c it was all i had in the suitcase, in retrospect! but change is good and i'm going to push for it very hard now that i've returned...i feel like my personal style needs more tweaking, more pushing, more experimentalism.)
p.s. i'm in the courtyard of the louvre museum in paris.

in antwerp, belgium.
again, i can't say it enough: everything i own is filthy! ugh! so glad to be going back to the states...if for no other reason than being able to wash my clothes! :P

wardrobe_remix(ers) o' the week

whew! it's thursday!
i'm running around like a chicken with her head cut off, preparing the house for our leave of it, and running last minute errands before my trip. so much to do! don't want to forget anything!
because of that, i *almost* forgot to do my weekly wardrobe_remix((ers) o' the week post! but thankfully did not!
i'm going to try and do these posts and blog some when i'm overseas, but it just all depends on how much fun i'm having! haha.
anyway! on with the show!

this week i feel like it's all about contrasts: crazy prints, stripes, colors that clash or pop against one another in a terrific, dynamic way, or even pieces one might not expect to work together that work together beautifully.

wardrobe_remix(ers) o' the week

thursday, thursday, thursday! that of course means that it's time again for your weekly installment of wardrobe_remix(ers) o' the week!
this week it's all about patterns, methinks, as some of you are sporting some pretty sassy and stylish geometric and ethnic prints, plus some twists on those classic workhorse members of the canon of prints, the noble and natty dot, stripe and plaid.
