+/-

I did this for the summer, now here's to the fall:

+: junko shimada, laughs that fade into smiles that last for a couple seconds, cunching dead leaves!, my new red boots, brooklyn, greg saunier's seizurish drumming methods, pheromones, watch-movies-all-day-because-it's-a-fall-overcast-day day's, catching glances, all of the innovative fashion pieces inspired by the fall season, burnt orange's, mustard's, and rouge's, hands in pockets, mint tea, that point when nothing is green anymore and you feel like you're on jupiter, tellers of the future like pierre hardy, fisheye, "in due time" lists, nick jonas, horn of plenty at about 6pm, corduroy and fringe, my new bicycle.



-: fall jones', pack rats (there is a significant difference between a pack rat and a collector), "nippy", halitosis, those god awful Uggs that will disappointingly reemerge, pink sweatpants accompanied by Uggs, people who wear Uggs accompanied by pink sweatpants, flip flops, the declination of numerous dignities, nick jonas' age, cackles, fall fashion rules, jarrell should've stayed.

flourescent grey.

--Spring is not exactly right around the corner, however it still rains!

Let's face it, it doesn't matter how many paisley patterns and daisy decoupages they print on rain boots they're still pretty, well, butch. Not that they still aren't, but we do have a more feminine solution now. Thanks to Shuella we can wear our "shoe unbrellas" a bit cooler.

Clencher: They can be worn over your shoes/heels!

--Recently I've made a list of things I'm going to accomplish/start by January, and one of them is to start knitting again. It really helped with my patience. It really, really did. I'm in dire need of patience at the moment, it is rather null at the present.

I stumbled across this work of goodness, Why Would You Knit That.

Guess which one's my favorite!


--Remember back in the good 'ol days when you'd beg your Mom for those Lisa Frank band-aids just because they looked cool? Somehow it was cool to rock band-aids back then. Cool to be pigeon toed too. Somehow.

Anyway.
Designer Alexandre Herchcovitch has teamed up with band-aids, and his band-aids are flipping sick.
Can we bring back band-aids as accessories please? I mean we brought back those god awful leg warmers.

Alexandre is pretty enchanting on all fronts so you should check him out. I mean he uses F*** Buttons as his opener.

If you please: Take a look at his Partnerships column. He is quite prolific.


--Style Bubble. Enough said.
She once again reminds me to ask myself, why in the hell am I not asian!?

Oh she also did a pretty nifty interview with UO here.
My favorite part is when she says, "...but you can't reveal everything through a fashion blog because that would just be a little bit daunting."

So true, Susie. So true.


p.s. i got a lot of this jazz from UO's blog. it's surprisingly a lot less stereotypical than i thought.

oh, and --.
