hey just fyi speaking of libraries did u guys know u can check out books online with an ereader like a kindle or something and a library card? free ebooks ya'll. search here for your local participating library and you're off. that way u can just wear your sweet outfit around the house and never have to be at risk of actual human interaction.
i thought that was awesome so just passing it along on the tails of mbd's epic fashunz
dying and coming back gives you considerable perspective
Were you or were you not privy to a certain someone eating several Hot Dougs in a Junya Watanabe SS2003 Green Parachute Dress? : D
Thanks for the kind words friends...

AUTHENTIC.....there i said the A word. that's why your fits are so cool. your clothes may be collected but they are also lived in.
this is kind of interesting, because honestly, part of me rolled my eyes when i read that she wore that to the library. quite frankly i don't consider that to be a sign of 'living' in your clothes. but then again, one could also argue that the dress is really nothing more than another artifact in MBD's closet, and being comfortable enough to wear it in such a mundane context is actually pretty cool. because that dress is fucking insane and also incredibly gorgeous. so i hope it wasn't just sprawled out on your floor this morning, accidentally trampled on by your guest for the night, and subsequently thrown on in a haphazard manner on your way out for the day. but at the same time i kind of hope it was? i don't know what to think i guess.
are we supposed to treat our clothes like they're special because to us, they are? when does it become too calculated? i'll admit i have to feel right before heading out to like, fucking target and that requires a few spins in front of the mirror and sometimes i feel kind of retarded but i guess its not because its in my nature to care about aesthetics, and i doubt any of us feels 'right' unless we're wearing something we somewhat like, you know? point is, i hope the library isn't the only place you plan on wearing that dress. it deserves better! or does it? personally, i don't think i would wear it unless i was about to get le dick in my mouth but thats just me
damn right. still having trouble visualising the library/patchwork dress though! this needs to be chronicled in images as much as hot dougs.
Ha! Fun times - with you and those duck fat fries, wearing a Swans t-shirt and cradling the Chicago dog - as it deserves - like a newborn kitten.
That's pretty epic.
and FYI - that boy/man can EAT. It is no joke.
