kimono

while exploring echo park, CA a few months back i stopped into a small vintage shop which consisted of some really amazing vintage and reconstructed vintage items; levis already cut off jean shorts of all sizes and washes and boots from eras of all kinds. while making my way to the back of the store i spotted a neatly organized rack of completely authentic kimonos of all lengths, prints and styles. i quickly filled my arms with a bunch and made my way to the fitting room. much to my dismay,none of them really fit quite right and some, upon careful examination were slightly stained. since that unsuccessful discovery ive been on a search for a short kimono with just the right print. i love the shape of them and the hanging arms that drape like wings.
i guess ill just have to keep scouring.

take me out tonite

Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Anymore

shiiine on you crazzy diamond

spring is here and things are looking fresh and newborn. ive been going thru the inevitable spring cleaning and trying to dump some of my piles of belongings. any one who knows me knows how much 'stuff' ive acquired over the years. ive realized that no matter how many times i go thru my wardrobe i cant seem to let certain things go. im a person who likes to have choices, i dont want just one pair of shoes, or one coat, or one pair of jeans. i need to mix it up and for lack of a better sentence "go shopping in my own closet for once"

Charlotte Gainsbourg "Songs That We Sing"

heeey

these pictures were on my computer at work, sorry for the repeats...but they are still music to my eyes. summer summer summer, you cant come soon enough. im ready to frolick in the summer night with just my shoes on and a thin sheet of fabric to keep me warm...

summer breeze by seals and crofts
See the curtains hangin' in the window, in the evenin' on a Friday night.
A little light a-shinin' through the window, lets me know everything is alright.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.

See the paper layin' in the sidewalk, a little music from the house next door.
So I walked on up to the doorstep, through the screen and across the floor.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.

Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom. July is dressed up and playing her tune.
And I come home from a hard day's work, and you're waiting there, not a care in the world.
See the smile a-waitin' in the kitchen, food cookin' and the plates for two.
See the arms that reach out to hold me, in the evening when the day is through.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.
