Well I just saw SATC2 with my boy & my friend Oscar. It was amazing! I finally also got my turban today in the mail from BABOOSHKA BOUTIQUE on etsy.com and it's perfect! So all in great timing...Seeing as how the particular styles shown in the film were very Moroccan-inspired. I plan to leaving braids in my hair overnight, then in the morning, untying them and spraying sea salt water all over my hair, combing out a bit for that messy beach waves look. Then turban over so it looks like i don't give a shit about my hair, as if I didn't try at all.(hahah i know...genius)
Lately I've noticed, how disgusted I am with public displays of affection, maybe because my boy and I never do that anymore, (we've been dating way too long to start acting like 7th graders again) or maybe I'm getting way too old for my age. Just today I was wearing tie-dyed denim frayed shorts with my transparent black ribbon-ed Anna Sui top with a long cardi and a cute braid in my hair (thinking "wow i'm totally embracing this whole bohemian look this summer, i'm so smart!") then to have my dreams shattered and belittled by co-workers calling me a "hoochie".... c'mon in the city we live in (Norwalk is a hot-bed for skanky latinas, i assure you), my short shorts are a shock to you? I know you people are like either 10-15 years older than me but am I too old for denim frayed shorts?really? I didn't get to wear them when I was young cause my parents were traditional conventionalist assholes, so now that I'm fucking 20 I can't wear them either?! fucking fuck, must I wear a black burqa, because that's what you expect of me, all monochromatic black, head to toe covered. It's not like I only have one categorized specific style, I can get out of 'the box' anytime I want, because that's what fashion is about:
Being able to express yourself freely, without limitations, without rules, or expectations.
Phew.sorry I'm too pepped up from the movie's diverse argument on women empowerment & freedom of expression.
Seeing how PDA was actually illegal in Abu Dhabi, raised a question... are all the people that live in Abu Dhabi actually old white hags that wear fake Chanel? *simulates old white american women sitting at cafe yelling at young couple holding hands*
i'm kidding
walk around in abu dhabi like this is punishable by death
fake chanel as well.
