"so what are you wearing?"

tuesday, september 28


you know, i've never been a snappy dresser, but lately i just don't know what the hell i'm doing. i think i've simply seen too many pictures/performances by alanis and tori and it rubbed off the wrong way.

as you may or may not know, tori is rather infamous for having an... interesting fasion sense. personally i love it, but i can see how some of her outfits make some people wince a bit. well, i've always made a lot of people wince too, mostly because i don't care about looking good, i just don't wanna freeze. and then you have alanis is always flopping around with her indian style clothes nowadays.

well, these two styles combined with my own non-style has turned me into a monster the past week. out of the blue i decided that i wanted to wear my long straight black skirt with slits up the sides hiked up over my chest so that it reaches the top of my knees, while wearing regular pants underneath, a t shirt on top and a long red over shirt on top of that.

then i removed the pants and t-shirt and voila - black skirt became black dress with the red top to cover arms and back. sunday i kept the skirt hiked up, and added a regular t-shirt so it was just a knee skirt and shirt. and then yesterday..

yesterday i dug out this really large piece of thin flimsy silky fabric that is a tyedye scarf jessica gave me for christmas. it looks like a rainbow had a bit of an accident on it, and i love it, but i've never had an idea of how to wear it because it's too big to wear around my neck, and it would never work as a long sarong skirt. well well.

i am currently wearing sandals, regular black pants, the rainbow scarf is tied over my chest so that it hangs down to halfway down my thighs making it a skirt, and my spice girls t-shirt over that. and i love it. now all i fear is that i'll start looking too long at my bellydancing scarves with zillions of goldy sequins.

what can i say? i'm sure MTV's house of style will be knocking on my door any minute now. madonna, eat your heart out.
