Bored, therefore:

Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post about it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, political leanings, thoughts on yaoi, favorite type of underwear, graphic techniques, etc. Repost in your own journal if you are so inclined.

Er, given my horrible track record on these things, no promises, though I will definitely keep topics in mind!

FASHION!!!

Um, but only if you want to. Fer instance, favorite fashions? Eras? Where would you recommend buying a new favorite shirt? Shoes? Any favorite fashion indulgences? Etc!

That'd be fun.

Ooo clothes! I love clothes, though lately I haven't had that much fun shopping because of weight gain. I also just discovered the joys of Zappos, free overnight delivery, and free returns. For work stuff, I usually go check out Ann Taylor and Ann Taylor Loft because they have good sales.

Favorite fashions! I have a horrible love of oversized, dolman-sleeved, off-the-shoulder eighties shirts. And giant circle skirts. And fuck-me high heels, though I can't wear them. And lace-up boots. And forties dresses. And little perchy hats, even though I don't wear hats. And bell sleeves. And things with waist shaping. And embroidery and lots of details and shaping.

Eras: oooo hard. I like so many of them! Every time I think I don't (80s!), I will see something I like. Although the modern era of my heart is probably the 1950s. And then I love Tang dynasty and chipao and kimono and Meiji Japan schoolgirls in hakama and Restoration-era clothes (so over the top! Wigs! Pumps! Pastels!). For some reason, I'm not that into Regency style.

I really need to read the five books on hanbok that I borrowed!
