Fig and Plum posted a link to the Wardrobe Remix Photo Pool. People track their attire for two weeks to track their preferences, style, etc. I am not sure if I am navigating the links in the right order or anything, but I find it fascinating to see what people are wearing. I must say that I don't think that this is a particularly normal or average group of people... clearly their photos show that they are more artsy and interesting than your typically Walmart shopping cart pusher. I really enjoy the pictures of this woman. I feel inspired by her attire. I wish I had that sort of confidence. I wouldn't be able to pull it off. I like her sense of style. Not knowing anting about her, but seeing her outfit photos, I think that she must be living an incredible life. I imagine that she does deep, somewhat dark, artsy things. That she reads serious books and makes jokes that the people around her don't always understand. I imagine that she does not sit in a cubicle, in front of a computer all day, like I do. When she has her bleached, blond hair, I think she is less mysterious and much sadder. With the blond hair, she lacks that layers and complexity. There is a quiet respectability to her look with dark hair. There is a restraint or a sense of classic beauty that is missing with the blond hair. I am amazed that the narrative I can create to describe this women can change so much with the hair color.
These photos make me think of Drew Barrymore's wardrobe in Everyone Says I Love You and Meg Ryan's wardrobe in IQ. I love these movies and used to get them from the library in college to keep me busy on a quiet Friday or Saturday night.
