Devil in the Details

 

 

This post turned out a lot different then I had originally planned...I thought it was going to be pictures of pastel colored photos with added on borders (like the two above) and detailed views of clothing, style, and spaces (hence the title). It has actually become like a witches brew of darkening pastel shades.

Eleanor Hardwick (who I really need to dedicate an entire post to), Elliott Smith, Meadham Kirchhoff hanger (if anyone has their address can you please give it to me so I can send them a letter asking them to stop being so awesome. Oh, wait! I have their phone number, it's 1-800-AMAZING), Liz Ham, Anja Konstantinova in Oyster Magazine, Olympia Le Tan in her studio, Sofia Sanchez & Mauro Mongiello (I am obsessed with this editorial right now), Lauren Poor, a letter Edward Gorey sent, Jake Cooper, Olivia Kim's vanity table, barrettes on the Jeremy Scott runway, Prada Winter 2007 lookbook, Wendy Beaven, Charlotte Free and her rings

Song of the Day: Where is My Mind-the Pixies

 

When I do blogging stuff, which is not so often recently, I have been working on a bunch of really detailed expansive posts, but they take so long/are so exhausting that I end up not posting anything. It's okay, though, because nobody really read this blog and I just like to do it for myself really.

Anyways, this is one of my favourite songs, partly because I feel like the Pixies are a perfect soundtrack to teenage angst. The first time I heard this song I strangely became obsessed with the line--or really more line snippet--"I went swimming in the Caribbean"...don't ask me why, my reason will just be that it sounds awesome. I think it's because of that line that this song conjures "ocean vibes" for me. More particularly, it makes me think of going to the seaside on a gray, cloudy (almost stormy) day and having some sort of epiphany about the crazy hardships of youth. That's just me though...
