lighter layers
when will it end!
the aggressive 80's fashion
swarming the city streets
magazines and stores.
it's been 2 years
of severe severe darkness.
leather, shoulders, spike heels
studs, ridiculous fashion editor attire
everyone looks so "affected"
well all need to chill out.
ah, but i feel a sweet feminine
floral crop blouses, long skirts
patch work jeans, beige,
suede, and floppy hats
chanel sp 10
i have no desire
to look edgy.
i'm good to go with
some patched jeans and
a flower in my shirt pocket.
ps: until spring,
my winter uniform:
ali mcgraw in "a love story"
plaid skirt with tights & pea coat
anna karina in band of outsiders
red stockings too.

if i were woman
it's how i'd stand
not quite defiant
but in control/command.
OMG thanks for finally saying it!
some refinement please
why not be oneself
that is
the whole secret of
a successful appearance.
if one is a
greyhound
why try to look
like a pekingese?

This rings true. Studs and black leather have temporarily lost all meaning. Black has become so safe and expected it's time to retire the hard look for awhile. A real tough girl can take a risk.
fashion is what you are offered.
style is what you choose.
i'm with jd and by land by air by sea. let's ignore the fashion we don't like and have some fun being creative! (and try to overlook the fact that most teenagers seem to have forgotten the existence of the 'skirt' concept. oh, i'm growing old... i think one should wear a skirt, not just tights and a top)
love the 70's and love the 90's...
fresh air
jaaa, 80's that's the worst decade. actually the only one which i really hate! (perhaps because i was teenage back then?) ;)
I've met Ali McGraw a time or two at Todos Santos :^)
She's still looking s'marvelous.
Tacky is what comes to mind when reminded of '80s fashion although I'll admit to loving Norma Kamali back in the day. And Michele Lamy!
Absolutely lovely, I feel the same way. Thumbs up to soft, calm style.

Ah Filippa, she is always an inspiration!
I loved this post. I have no desire to look edgy, either.
