I'm just wanting them bigger and bigger, be it florals or bows or veils! A couple of weeks ago i went to a big vintage clothing warehouse sale, and all i came out with was a bag of hats! I just don't feel dressed unless i put something on my head these days. I'm thinking pretty soon i'm going to end up putting something completely over my head rather than on it a la Giles Deacon SS09 lol. Maybe i should get in the market for a goldfish bowl...
So last night i went to an amaaaazing Dillinger Escape Plan show at the Barfly in Camden. Its like 200 capacity, so you can imagine the carnage! We're talking bloody noses, people swinging from the air conditioning unit in the ceiling, climbing all over the amps, it was cooler than a penguins unmentionables. It made me want to cut the sleeves off all my band t-shirts.
Why DO band t-shirts look better with the sleeves rolled up/cut off i ask you? Is it an element of...
..."i care not for your rules man! I'm a rock and roll rebel living on the edge! You say t-shirt, i say I-SHIRT!"???
Is it the practicality of the increased armpit ventilation in those sweaty, low-ceilinged sausagefests?
Maybe a bit of both?
Meh, who cares, it looks hot. Especially with a size large guys t-shirt and a skinny belt (it would be unwise to completely neglect ones femininity with all those hot guitar types about!).
I couldn't count myself amongst those who are interested in art without making some comment about the untimely death of Lee Alexander McQueen. A groundbreaking artist, he astounded and enthralled fashion lovers all over the world with his collections which towed the perfect line between beautiful movement,tailoring designed to fit form, and awe inspiring art. I suppose creative genius is usually bourne out of some inner personal turmoil, but it seems insane that a moment of desparation could put out such a bright light. As we all mourn this great loss, it is a small comfort to remember that old chestnut...
"it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all"
