You have no idea how hard it is to find original versions of Bob Dylan, Im telling you it is impossible. So this doesn't exactly fit in but it will have to do...
Recently anyone who has real fashion power has claimed "the style of the 70's is making a come back". Personally, I think that these people (by that I mean major fashion designers and big-time fashion editors) are losing there grip on control on the fashion industry. Now, I really think is the people, the "hipsters" that are now in control. Anywho kind of rambling of topic....What I was going to say is that if that means anything at all anymore...they're baaaack.
From all of the online stores i've checked out, they must be referring to a very smudged version of the seventies. The seventies I think of is the tight-bellbottom-disco-dancing-flipped-out-big-haired mid/late sventies. I'm talking "Stayin'Alive" - Bee Gees seventies. The seventies you see in all the seventies movies, pop music and of course the always reliable "That 70's Show", but WHAT EVER! The 70's they are talking about is so early seventies it might aswell be 60's. Okay. That's enough with my pointless bitching....I'm a history freak. Do not judge me to harshly.
Long flowy dresses, great-big-floppy hats, silk scarves, crochet vests! (pretty much boho all over agian, only maybe less black-a la marykate and more light, white, and delicate florals.)
feathers , fringe and flowers
I have always been a sucker for nymph-like attire. If only I looked more gracefull....sigh...way to clumbsy
I cant wait. It is going to be s fun summer.
so I cant go another entire post with out more pisctures that would be evil/very boring of me. So excuse my lazyness/un creativity...
So If you have been following this what-ever-it-is, you may have noticed that there has been a change. Well, more than one I hope. Along with a name change I want to change my blogging format a little and maybe that will help me to get on here more often.
This is going to sound completely corny but I am going to start using music for inspiration from now on. Recently, in my art class we did a abstract art project inspired by our favorite songs. I loved it so much! So I thought I would try to use this technique when it comes to this as well. Hopefully it works!
This song was a free single on itunes (I believe a couple years ago) and as of last year, on of my favorite songs. If you know me in real life (which I believe you do, if you did not happened to stumble upon this random blog), you will know that I always go on about my two different ideal type of song; Firstly, a dance party song, one that you can really let loose with (my family is known to have random dance parties in our bedrooms or living rooms). The second type of song that I really love is the long car ride type song. The kind of song that makes you feel like you could listen to this song on a long country road, with corn and wheat on both sides of the highway. In your cherry-red vintage mustang convertible. (Ignore the fact that the exact same image is shown in the music video, I had this opinion before this song even existed).The latter is my favorite type of song to listen to, they are usually happy songs, just not in your face I-AM-REALLY-HAPPY-RIGHT-NOW type song, just the type that you can subtly bob your head to. (When I listen to this music on the subway, it usually puts a cheesy smile on my face, usually freaking out the other passengers).
Through & Through & Through by Joel Plaskett is exactly that type of song for me. Hopefully, with this name as inspiration, I can give that same feel to this place.
