SCATTERED AESTHETICS






SOME PEOPLE HAVE SO MUCH CREATIVITY AND TASTE AND STYLE THAT NOTHING CAN BE DONE ABOUT IT, THEIR HOMES, THEIR CLOTHES, THE WORK THEY MAKE IS JUST AN EVERYDAY AESTHETIC RITUAL.
FROM HER SHOOTING PAINTINGS, TO HER NANAS AND LARGER SCULPTURES, GARDENS, ASSEMBLAGES, TO THE WAY SHE DRESSES, THE OUTSIDER- WAY COOLER THAN FUCKING JANE BIRKIN, BARDOT, CATHERINE DENEUVE, AND BEFORE BADU AND SEVINGY AN UNDERGROUND ICON OF WHAT REALLY IS IN MY OPINION EFFORTLESS CHIC WITHOUT BOURGEOIS TRAPPINGS LADIES AND GENTLEMAN I PAY HOMAGE TO

!!!! NIKI DE SAINT PHALLE !!!!



MAYA DEREN: 1940'S AVANT FILMSTRESS,

MESHES OF THE AFTERNOON
RITUAL IN TRANSFIGURED TIME

GINA X PERFORMANCE: THIS NEW WAVE CHANTEUSE MAKES ME FEEL LIKE I'M AT A LEATHER BAR IN BERLIN, SMOKING OPIUM AND CRYING, ALLIGATOR SKIN SHOES, SINGLE KISSES FROM THE BELLYBUTTON ALL THE WAY DOWN THE HAPPY TRAIL- ORAL WITHOUT BEING ORAL- TOUNGE TEASING


CAN: PAPERHOUSE-


I AM OBSESSED WITH THE MODERN LOVERS RIGHT NOW: IT'S LIKE THAT SLACKER KINDA VIBE WHERE YOU DON'T REALLY KNOW HOW TO BAKE ANYTHING BUT YOU WILL TRY YOUR HAND AT SOME BETTY CROCKER WEED BROWNIES AND YOU HAD TO DRIVE REALLY FAR INTO THE SUBURBS TO GET THE WEED BECAUSE IT WAS LESS EXPENSIVE AND YOUR MAN KEEPS ON TRYING TO GET YOU TO GIVE HIM ROAD HEAD BUT YOUR LIKE " STOP PLAYING WITH ME COREY" AND HE HAS FRENCH FRY BREATH AND WHEN HE FIRST PUTS THIS CD IN YOUR LIKE " COREY I WAS LISTENING TO RYAN LESLIE, WHY YOU ALWAYS GOTTA PUT IN SOMETHING DEPRESSING IT BETTER NOT BE BOB DYLAN" BUT THEN YOU REALIZE THAT THIS SONG IS CHILL..........

ABORIGINAL BEAUTY: I THINK ABORIGINES ARE ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND UNIQUE ETHNICITYS WHEN IT COMES TO FEATURES. THE COMBINATION OF SUCH DARK FLAWLESS SKIN AND LIGHT HAIR IS STUNNING....AND THESE GIRLS ARE NOT USING DARK & LOVELY BLEACH EITHER!

I ASPIRE TO BE THE MOOD OF THIS SONG




Your burning incense in your house and your man is gonna be over in like 15 minutes and you already showered but your hair is so thick that it's still wet so you got the towl wrapped on your head and your neighbor keeps blasting lil john from downstairs cuz he's about to go out but you just hope that shit is off before your man gets there and you keep calling your mother ( cuz she stays up late watching oxygen) to see how long you were suppose to leave the cornish hens in the oven and how much sugar you need to add to those yams that almost look done and your best friends are texting you off but your like girl i can't answer your text right now my man is gonna be here in like 10 minutes now and then you just remembered that your pillowcases were dirty so you have to open up that sheet set your auntie gave you when you first moved in to your apartment cuz you don't have time to wash nothing and then you realize the incense is too strong now so you have to open the window and you don't know if you should leave on your wife beater and short sweat shorts or whether to put on real clothes but you stay in your house clothes because there actually clean for once and you put that vanilla coconut lotion/oil on your thighs and neck cause eventually he's going to be smelling both.....

jesus christ where is my boyfriend??

I'M NO.... DARE I SAY IT, FASHIONISTA BUT.......




DIDDY RAN THE CITY IN 2003. 

EVERYONE SAY IT WITH ME NOW THIS TIME, WELL SOUND IT OUT TOGETHER

" DID-DEE- RAH-AN -THA SIT-TEE IN- TOO- THOW-SAND- AND- TH-R-EE" AND IT IS ...2008

IF I SEE ANOTHER BOY WALKING AROUND THIS CITY WITH A FAUXHAWK I SWEAR TO GOD, I'M A BE LIKE MY GRANDMA INEZ WITH HER CLOSE CUT SHEARS AND SHAVE THAT SHIT OFF! ( My grandma Inez is guilty of shaving both me and my cousin Quincy's rat tails off without permission from our parents)




I MEAN I'D RATHER SEE A BOY WITH A HOT COMBED SLAVE PRESS THAN THAT HAIRCUT



AND IF YOUR GOING TO DO THE MOHAWK ATLEAST GIVE ME SHOWS.....


.........IF PERSONAL STYLE WERE GOD, MR. AUDIGIER WOULD BE SATAN PERSONIFIED.



I MEAN ALL I WEAR IS DIRTY BLACK CLOTHES ALL THE TIME WHAT DO I KNOW ABOUT FASHION ANYWAY?
