We've come a long way, boys.

When it comes to knee socks, that is. Yes gentlemen, I'm talking to you. Us girls have come a long way from the mouth watering article of clothing in your girlfriend's favorite 90's cult classic film, or the dirty little number featured on your naughty bookmarked pinup. The thigh high trend is back. And it's back with mighty vengeance. Let's just say you aren't going to see any well respected fashionistas traipsing around town in sheer white knee socks and plaid skirts (not unless she's on her way to an amateur photoshoot.. but then again she probably wouldn't be a well respected fashionista). The other day I wore mine with a vintage sundress, a jean jacket, a cranberry beret, and of course (need i say?) my docs. If you look closely (and you probably will because you are a straight male), you'll notice us chicks wearing this hot re-trend the way it should be: fucking rock and roll.






But us ladies now have a problem on our hands: We must not let our re-found love for thigh highs spin so out of control, that our fashionable rapport will be overcome with a new cliche of male fantasy. Oh, just kidding boys. Don't be so sensitive. We all love you. We couldn't live without you. :)

..Hiatus..

My computer officially had it's last day of life last week. Therefore my fashion blog will be put on hold until I am able to get a new one (though it should be back on track by the end of this month). Please do not think I am abandoning my little gem of a blog. A blog I am sincerely in love with, proud of, and very serious about maintaining. I will update you, dear readers, as soon as I can. In the meantime, thank God for public libraries.




But here's a little random something to tide you over while I'm gone: Jenny Lewis. How she can make ballons look so fucking stylish is beyond me. And that is why I love her. If you dress like her and make music like her maybe you'll make balloons look stylish too.
