geeeez man. i've totally neglected my blog. how can i ever be the next, great american blogger when i take long blogging breaks? well not much has been goin on. mostly working on work-school is forever right now, its going to make me crazy.
but something did bring a much needed smile to my face. i'm looking forward to this in a big way.
where the wild things are! i've been seeing a lot of mixed reviews about it honestly...which i really don't understand. it excites me that the wild things are puppet like and don't seem overly digitally enhanced. bonus points: karen o & arcade fire on board for the music!!! aahhhhhh! spike jonze!!!
apparently, the first round of this scared the shit out of kids. so a lot had to be reshot. but just looking at the trailer and thinking about the the wild things-and those beautiful illustrations that made up one of the coolest children's books of all time-i am completely stoked.

Wide open road of my future now... It's looking fucking narrow.
nothing like a birthday to rank up the gifts...
here's a few on my wishlist.
feel free to buy them for me.
you know i'll be grateful!
gota get the nintendo wii. such a sucker for the bowling game, mario kart & wii fit! which i think will be my new addiction.
i was so angry when i was flipping through the channels and saw someone on that lame mtv show, the city..wearing this awesome dvf jacket. i've been peepin this shiz for a while, and i really want it to be mine. i could throw it over jeans or even a little dress for the spring time.
from jcrew. i've been on this necklace for a while. it looks antique, and i freakin love jewelry from j.crew and i can imagine all the stuff i can add this to, to pump things up.
love these.
a book that archives the life & magic of the man.

youre never gonna stop all the teenage leather & booze
kim gordon for urban outfitters? oh by god, i think i've seen it all in my short life. this is strange. i have a love/hate for urban. mostly hate. why you ask? well i think that they rip artists off. i think they are a massive conglomerate who grabs trends and marks it up at a 400% increase. hey creative people of the universe, you know most of the crap you buy at uo you can find for a cheap penny at a thrift store? well...if you don't , now you know..go off and be somebody.
even more, i knew this girl who literally bought urban outfitters off the visual display. like the way those jacks dressed the manni's she would come in and dress herself. and while she was mentally ill..(i'll explain what a psycho she was later) she thought her sense of style was good bc uo told her to. it was pathetic on many levels. like how can u really think you are being unique and stylish if you are just dressing like everyone else or dressing from a prescribed formula? uhhhh, hello??
the only time that place is good is when its on the sale rack..and trust me, if you wait long enough, it will always be on the sale rack. i think its pretty strange how great brands like corpus or obesity & speed have collaborated with uo. i understand we are in a recession and for indie brands this is just helping them pay their fucking electricity..but i still think it sucks...knowing how urban bites off people all the time and has a history of screwing young designers.
with that being said...i don't dislike the clothes or styles that obesity & speed and/or any of the other collections-the stuff is great! i just wish it didn't have the uo name attached. but i guess people need to pay their bills..and no matter how bad or whatever, we all sell out in some way eventually.
i don't encourage people to buy their complete wardrobe from urban and i dont mind if things here and there make their way from urban into your closet, god knows i buy things from them from time to time (very on sale though)--just dont be a gd-ed model for any fucking corporate bullshit..bc that makes you part of the system...and thats fucking lame.
ok, so now, kim gordon designs for urban outfitters..whats the verdict?
ugh, well personally this is boring to me. nothing special and i can't seem to understand the comparision to francoise hardy. who by far is quite an icon and beautiful..but maybe kim means she wanted it low key and simple styles, but i still think there is something cooler about francoise's style that i dont read from kim's mirror/dash collection. it just kinda reminds me of stuff you can get at target..its nothing special. i want PAAAAAAA-DAOW from kim gordon. ...not yawny yawn dreamlandsville. i guess i just get super charged from sonic youth --and this is all kinda letting me down. where's the badassery? rockin chords-messy-tressy-stand up.
...maybe i was hoping it would be more like kim gordon //sonic youth in its prime...
i don't know. maybe i'm wrong and im open to your suggestions.
