Hello again!


Hey gang! It's been a little while but I am back at it here. What could possibly make me dust off the old blog and camera and keyboard and come running back to you, despite a serious head cold? A package from Elizabeth (White Lightning) pretty much did the trick. Inside said package was...

Remember the Margiela for H&M collab? E knew I needed this reissue dress from the 1996 Trompe L'Oeil collection. The original :

So smart. This thing is what you'll see me wearing more often than not from now on. Here is the version in The Met:

Unfortunately I got all dressed up yesterday and ended up being too sick to really be out long. The only pic of me in it is this one:

But yes I am back! Lots of the blogs I used to love have gone away or have become so commercial that I have zero interest in them anymore. We all change and at some point these online versions of ourselves get to feeling cramped, lame or just strange. Or they morph into people we might not recognize as ourselves anymore. I just had to get away and shake it all off for a sec. Now I'm all settled in here and cozy and in the mood to share again. And I miss you guys! I hope some of you still have me in your readers. I'll be posting the same stuff I always did - old movies, good vintage junk I find, stuff i make and, of course, what I'm wearing if it happens to be amusing.

There may also be the occasional picture of Cornfed, cuz he's just too handsome for words...
