gucci, prada, chanel...all such funny little words. I like myself a good plaid men's shirt and a pair of oversized khaki's. regardless of my comfy ways, I have such a soft spot for beautiful clothes and their makers. while the industry behind designer clothing does not sit well with me and the body type encouraged is unhealthy, the garments are works of art. one side of me wants to kick and scream, arguing that money spent on sequins and silk should go toward the hungry and homeless, but that just isn't so. when someone tells me i should put away the guitar and do something that matters, it breaks my heart.
I recently watched the VOGUE documentary called "The September Issue" and fell in love with Grace Coddington, the creative director of VOGUE. she's so beautiful and such a genius. i can't help but hating on the superficiality of the fashion scene, but when i found out about her it gave me hope that one can love clothing and still be a good person.
