indulge me

L.D. Tuttle

Tokyo Bopper


shoes and pants are the items of clothing that I am most willing to spend a considerable amount of dough on. anyone who knows me in real life has undoubtedly had to suffer through my (continuing) gripes about the most perfect pair of pants that I destroyed last summer. I am still in the personal process of sartorial identity formationblahblahblah but I like things that I consider to be versatile. I think if and when you find the perfect pair of pants, buy two, three pairs! Even the best quality pants will eventually wear out in the worst places, so I think it is a good investment.

In the meantime, I will hopefully be getting my hands on/feet into those tokyo bopper ballerina platforms when my friend makes a trip to tokyo next month! as far as shoe care goes, I think it's important to find a good shoe repair place for heel tip replacement (is this possible to diy?) and re-soling. If you are in the Philly area, Dom is wonderful!

Nikola Tesla

Earth is a conductor of accoustical resonance..

Jack Shows Meg His Tesla Coil in 'Coffee and Cigarettes'

just snatched this movie up from a closing video shop, along with The Brown Bunny, The Life Aquatic, Alphaville, and Under the Tuscan Sun (score). As with much of Jim Jarmusch's work, this one does not really follow a script, there's no story. It's probably the worst acting I've ever seen from Steve Buscemi, whom I love unconditionally, but Bill Murray with RZA and GZA was a treat, as was Cate Blanchett vs herself. If I had netflix, I would rewatch Permanent Vacation..

Wool 100%

I have probably posted about this movie before but I am particularly fond of fibers and the color red recently.







sometimes I feel like that weird girl in the red dress, 24/7.
