Usual Nonsense @@@
Jean
Jeans are a closet token, we acquire them while we're growing up and they put a little bit of balance and simplicity into our lives. They tear and get worn out yet we wear them not only as some fashion statement but mainly as a statement to show where we've been, each hole has a story and the pockets keep old receipts from convenience stores tucked away.
Skin
When it somes to skin there are a range of different types, textures and colors blending to create something unique and wonderful. When worn, our own skin tones are not only illuminating but glowing against the contrast of another skin.
Plaid
I always remember elementary school when I had to wear uniforms, knee high socks, black shoes, white collar shirt, and the unforgettable plaid skirt. For years after elementary I stayed way from plaid because I had worn it for so long but slowly its creeping back into my closet; different patterns black/blue red/blue and the famous black/white.
Straw
I believe that my fascination with hats began with watching my dad go to work in the usual suit/tie and some kind of hat sitting his bald head. He has tons of hats and this summer was when my fascination and exploration of them began,specifically straw hats. They brighten up any outfit while throwing a but of sunshine in my day.
Floral
Spring is inching closer and closer to us and once again stores are coming up with the "revolutionary" idea of bringing in....can you guess?....FLORAL!! wow what a surprise. Although floral in spring is very unoriginal I kind of like it and feel the need to bring more of it into my closet.
Flowers & Bows
I used to not even think about accessories because all that was on my mind were the clothes, but that all changed. I developed a deep interst in bows and flowers, anything that can spice up simple cutoff shorts and a vintage tee.
These are the patterns/texture/tokens that take over my closet and my outfits daily. I may have missed some other textures/or closet tokens so if so feel free to post some more in a comment :)
