outfit deets: boots - vintage // dress - Forever 21 // blazer - thrifted
HI! Oh boy, there is a lot on my mind today. I'm afraid I might not be able to get it all out right. My head is a bit of a jumble - it's been a bit of a jumble for awhile now. It's OK though, I need to get used to chaos. Do you ever hear people say things like, "I hate labels" or "I don't want to be confined to a 'label'"? I probably used to be one of those people who said those kinds of things but in my head I actually had a pretty good idea of what label I might fall under. That is, in elementary school I probably thought of myself to be best described as "the class clown" or "the laughing giddy girl". In high school my friends and I could probably be defined by the music we listened to and the things we did after school. I guess what I'm trying to say here is that when I was younger despite the fact that I said I didn't want to be labelled but I probably took comfort in the fact that there was a label that easily suited me. Of course, a label is never sufficient and I know that now but the label gave me something to turn to when questions of individuality and identity came up.
The thing that I have been faced with for the past few years (probably since I started studying philosophy) is that I can't imagine a label that would sufficiently work to describe me. It's not really a problem, or at least it shouldn't be, but without that idea to look to when trying to figure out superficially where I might fit in in this crazy mixed up world I don't have an answer. I just feel like I don't have anything close to a cohesive way of taking up the world and that is because I don't have a cohesive identity. No one does, it's just that some people convince themselves that they do just like I did when I was younger. Is anyone picking up what I'm putting down? I hope so.

ANYWAY! With all of this said, my blazer? Yah - it was brand new (with tags) from TeenFlo (now known as Judith&Charles) and was probably initially priced at around $200. I got it for $12 and it fits me like a dream. *happy dance*
Maybe from now on I will label myself as the girl with the $12 TeenFlo blazer, and will take up the world accordingly.
Oh yah, and there's a picture of my camera for those of you wondering what camera I use when not using Dale's Nikon D90. It's the Canon Powershot SX110.
Alrighty lovelies, I will talk to you soon!
