Bicentennial beginnings

Evidently the aforementioned Internet amnesty was entirely short-lived. But since I'm celebrating my birthday amongst dusty albums, shoebox victims, and 70's-chic nostalgia, I thought I'd share some of the images my mom just shared with me.
Note the fifth picture is all about the sandals... I guess, some things never really change.

The Carousel Ride

A little storytelling... A modicum of silence swallowed the room as dusty shards of sunlight patterned the multicolored carpet. Decorated with an army of garish jewelry, everything jingles, almost intentionally, as the woman perched behind the large candy counter brushes invisible lint from her blouse. Her silvery hair is the color of cotton candy. She offers a genuine smile before shifting her gaze downcast towards her slender hands. Briefly, she examines their delicate surface that is creviced by time and wiser than yesterday. At four quarters per ride, it was a small price for six minutes of uncontaminated childhood reminiscence to sweep the memory warehouse. And while we kept the company of an epoch 1920’s carousel, 60 handcrafted horses, and funky reindeer, we went round and round, faster and faster… letting it take us to those secret places we almost forgot existed. --Bella H. p.s. In lieu of those who have so thoughtfully given me awards and spotlight features... YOU'RE AM...

Stone Cold

Just a spoonful of dirty glamour... makes the medicine go down. It was cold, damn cold… practically subzero. And while we remained officers of style to such an abominable climate, it was a long night of semi-traffic disobedience, parking lot larking, and wicked misbehavior, as we rallied about for ice cream and liquid courage. Not to mention the severe photo contingency that kept us blind-sided from the florescent storm of an external flash. (!!) At midnight, she mentioned the boys in the band… and then purposefully neglected any amount of etiquette. But we’re not dolls… we’re rambunctious and sometimes we fuckin swear too much… so which of us is perfect? I was completely stoked (!) when Jess over at ClothesCaptioned e-mailed me and subsequently asked if I'd agree to a feature/write-up ... amazing stuff. Thanks Jess, you rock! And I'm sending out special thanks to a few righteous babes for so thoughtfully thinking of me... Fashioncupcake (for my amazing blog award), and to T...

The Ties That Bind

I approached the various strands of rope gingerly, and while I spent much of the first day staring hypnotically, in what can only be referred to as a highly suggestive state of uber-confusion, I finally put the rope overlay under enemy control. I figured it would be a pragmatic undertaking, you know, some sort of therapeutic magic potion to lousy days. But all that insatiable weaving, knotting, tying, looping, and wrapping was seriously blowing my mind. After three weeks of (literally) getting caught up and tousled in something that ultimately looked like nothing, I was beginning to have my doubts. But in the end, the DIY project from hell was a veritable triumph as I kicked its sweet little nautical ass into the alpha dog of my closet. Awesome side note: I was stoked to be contacted by the ever-lovely Mimi for Fashion Idol of the Week , so if you haven’t already seen it, please check out my interview … it’s INCREDIBLE! And special thanks go out to Alex of aliens...
