Haters gonna hate

“Once upon a time, there was an ugly barnacle. He was so ugly, that everybody died. The end.” – Patrick Star.

I think it’s about time I put this out in the open. I’m not here to create perfection. My objective is to experiment with dramatic clothes. Most of the time I love the results, but I’ve also realised my shortcomings which is part and parcel of learning, no? Of course all constructive inputs are more than welcome. I could choose to wear a simple shift dress from Rick and some wedges, but where’s the fun in that? So if you want to see a pretty face and 6-feet of perfection, you can fuck off to one of those fame-chasing Swedish blogs in which the girls are blonde and their legs are long (no offense to them, they’re good at what they do).

    You are amazing.
    I love this. I love what you stand for and how you aren’t afraid to preach it.
    And the Margiela trousers are absolute eye candy

    Those trousers are amazing. Only a truly stylish person could pull them off. Leggy blonde Swedish girls have nothing on this.

    love it! how nice to see someone wear these margiela trousers, instead of the trousers wearing the person.
    your stylish interpretations are your own, as it should be. if we were all leggy and blond, how boring that would be?

    I love that you are not afraid to experiment, and mix very dramatic pieces together. Who cares about what others think, and who cares about the other bloggers, you keep doing what you’re doing. Your looks are always amazing.

    I appreciate the attitude: our blogs are our playing fields, and if someone doesn’t like the aesthetics, they may go somewhere else to look for the possibly leggy swede aesthete instead.
    needless to say, you look absolutely amazing in your black, grey and red. those margiela trousers suit you better than anyone else I’ve seen them on. you make them your own.

    I remember watching an interview with Gareth Pugh where he talked about his desire to create clothes that made life ‘interesting’ rather than easy to wear. What ‘Anonymous’ doesn’t understand is that clothes are about so much more than looking good. Clearly you know that, and that’s why I follow you.
