I rarely do "what I've been wearing post" so this is a treat, you know.

Anywho, I took the time to purge my inspiration folder that I have saved on my computer, which took two days (Yes, it is the most satisfying compilation of images I have ever seen, let it be known.) just so I could carefully select exactly what I thought made sense and tied in well with this post. You see, I AM committed.

I couldn't count how many times I have been called, "weird" or an "oddball" by my peers, and to be honest, <strong>I don't give a shit.</strong> </span><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">Not giving a shit is a wonderful feeling. I should let it be known that I have been severely self conscious since about the age of 10.... So that means that </span><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">I have never been able to acknowledge/ /accept compliments, which sucks. Also I became afraid that if I speak my mind I will be disliked, not only by other ppl, but most importantly by myself. Which really fucking sucks.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">Having this negative/ /low opinion of myself has gotten easier to deal with throughout the years, and up until now I hadn't thought about how much I dislike(d) myself. I mindlessly treated every day as I did the one previous, hating myself a little bit more. What's even worse is that I let this uncomfortable version of myself take over. I can only be my true self when I am alone..... </span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">Such a scary/ /weird thing to finally admit, but it's true.<br /></span><span style="font-family:arial;">Around others I tend to come off as being very uncomfortable and awkward (which is me twenty-four sevs), when in actuality I am naturally super calm and chill. </span></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">And so I had the thought, "What if everyone knew the real me? Would they even like me? Of course they wouldn't like me.... I mean, I don't even like me half the time." and so I got sad, for a moment, but after that momentary sadness faded I came to the realization that I don't care what people think.</span></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;"> No one should care what people think. </span></span><div><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">Just as long as you dig yourself, then everything else will fall into place.<br /><br /></span><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span><br /></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span></span><br /><strong><span style="font-family:courier new;">.:The StReeT Chanteuse:.</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"></span></strong></div>the StReeT chanteusehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16055571611921485461noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7767749933868496951.post-26581315173473323122009-11-22T21:04:00.015-05:002010-01-30T09:50:18.509-05:00About Me<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizydiZyA3KD_otN3rKdruslJe6n-q9-aWldxh2jCvojh4IfvgUC8uK81rrxblgL9ducTsTX4Ep_CYOkjZZaq9Qx5wmAN3Jr0nUDusUkZQRaKOj3JsKTSyoH0nEacS61gWlg1Uahar4Xiw/s1600-h/15072490930_ORIG_editedbypicnik.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizydiZyA3KD_otN3rKdruslJe6n-q9-aWldxh2jCvojh4IfvgUC8uK81rrxblgL9ducTsTX4Ep_CYOkjZZaq9Qx5wmAN3Jr0nUDusUkZQRaKOj3JsKTSyoH0nEacS61gWlg1Uahar4Xiw/s400/15072490930_ORIG_editedbypicnik.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431974718003326594" /></a><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><br /></span></span></div><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"></span><br /><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"><strong>name</strong>: Amber 'ReallyEmbarrassingMiddleNameThatStartsWithAn'L' Young (A.L.Y.)<br /></span><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"><strong></strong></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"><strong>age</strong>: 16<br /></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"><strong>where do you live?</strong>: <span style="font-size:78%;">{the suburbs of}</span> Washington D.C.</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"><strong>what do you do?</strong>: I worry, I hide, I smile, I worry some more, I question existence, I indulge : )<br /><strong></strong></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"><strong>favourite colour?</strong>: purple<br /></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"><strong>favourite cake?</strong>: Don’t particularly care for cake…<br /></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"><strong>favourite song at the moment?</strong>: Two by The Antlers </span><br /></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">(I featured this song on this here blog <a href="http://memoirsarenarcissistic.blogspot.com/2009/08/antlers.html">once before</a>, now I'm kinda going through a revival of sorts)<br /><strong></strong></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"><strong>a woman that inspires(d) you?</strong>: Daul Kim</span></div><br /><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"><strong>do you find that collections need to have some sort of aesthetic appeal even if they are highly conceptual?:</strong> Yes and no. The idea of a collection (imo) is to be a medium between the consumer and the designer, so if a collection translates well to the consumer then of course it will succeed, no doubt about it. Sometimes the consumer will not understand what the designer was trying to say, and that is a problem, a lot of designers have this trouble and it happens to be conceptual designers that fall victim to this miscommunication most often, which is sad to see but they should keep in mind that before there is fashion there is function.

For a long time I was just that girl whose fashion knowledge went as far as a monthly <em>Teen Vogue</em> subscription (My sister was actually the one who begged for the subscription, but eventually she lost interest and I gained interest) I mean I know TV isn't exactly AVANT AWESOME but it was where I started. Actually I was always more into interior design and would watch HGTV like it was my job, but eventually I lost interest (I tend to do that allot, lose interest with things, I become bored easy) but this fashion shit kind of just stuck... I am naturally a 'tomboy' so what I used to do was wear the same old things over and over again, but eventually I realized that I don't keep wearing these clothes because I lack a proper wardrobe, it's because these items are staples in my wardrobe. I needed them to feel complete. I believe it was the day I realized that I became interested in fashion. I have come a lonnnnnng way from those days of treating TV like it was a bible, now I'm more into Prim and METAL mag and RUSSH and shit like that. Just looking at me you wouldn't even guess that I know who Rei Kawakubo, let alone how to spell it.

(I'm not speaking for all tumblrs because I know a few I check on the regs and there are some awesome themed tumblrs as well, like <a href="http://elvisdepressley.tumblr.com/">Elvis Depressley</a> and <a href="http://iamvoldiefierce.tumblr.com/">I Am Voldie Fierce</a>, for instance) When did I promise to post consistently?! No... I didn't, but I'm sure if I make a promise I'll probs just end up breaking it. I mean that's what promises are made for, to be broken...

Something in my throat made my next words shake, and something in the wires made the lightbulbs break. There was glass inside my feet and raining down from the ceiling, it opened up the scars that had just finished healing. It tore apart the canyon running down your femur, (I thought that it was beautiful, it made me a believer.) And as it opened I could hear you howling from your room, but I hid out in the hall until the hurricane blew. When I reappeared and tried to give you something for the pain, you came to hating me again and just sang your refrain:<br />You had a new dream, it was more like a nightmare. You were just a little kid, and they cut your hair, then they stuck you in machines, you came so close to dying. They should have listened, they thought that you were lying. Daddy was an asshole, he fucked you up, built the gears in your head, now he greases them up. And no one paid attention when you stopped eating. “Eighty-seven pounds!” and this all bears repeating.<br />“Tell me when you think that we became so unhappy, wearing silver rings with nobody clapping. When we moved here together we were so disappointed, sleeping out of tune with our dreams disjointed. It killed me to see you getting always rejected, but I didn’t mind the things you threw, and phones I deflected. I didn’t mind you blaming me for your mistakes, I just held you in the door frame through all of the earthquakes. But you packed up your clothes in that bag every night, and I would try to grab your ankles (what a pitiful sight.) But after over a yea, I stopped trying to stop you from stomping out that door, coming back like you always do. Well no one’s gonna fix it for us, no one can.<br />“You say that, ‘No one’s gonna listen, and no one understands.’<br />“So there’s no open doors, and there’s no way to get through, there’s no other witnesses, just us two.”<br />There’s two people living in one small room, from your two half-families tearing at you, two ways to tell the story (no one worries), two silver rings on our fingers in a hurry, two people talking inside your brain, two people believing that I’m the one to blame, two different voices coming out of your mouth, while I’m too cold to care and too sick to shout.<br />You had a new dream, it was more like a nightmare. You were just a kid, and they cut your hair. Then they stuck you in machines, you came so close to dying. They should have listened, they thought that you were lying.

I'm not going to say I was affected, because I'm the type who can give a care or less about what Miley-whats-her-face or any of those Disney clones is currently doing...

I have compiled a long list of all the shoes I would love to own or you know build a sweatshop in my house and have annoying children *cough* a certain cousin of mines *cough* *cough* can make replicas of them.... whichever is fine by me. </span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">I mean really, what else children good for?</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">(I am superior, I am 16 after all and that's like half way to 30.. or something)</span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">OK, back on track.... SHOES! </span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">I have done a shoeGASM post <a href="http://the-existance-of-me.blogspot.com/2009/03/shoegasm.html">before</a>, but it wasn't nearly as opulent, long, or amazing as this post. I thought long and hard (get your mind out of the gutter) about the selection of shoes following... and It sort of tells you some info about me. Notice how I have a pair of freaking sweet Nike's but no Nicholas Kirkwoods... I guess I like what I like! (and am not easily swayed) or I just really like Nike's... Not to put down <a href="http://i40.tinypic.com/2v3kgw8.jpg">these</a> or <a href="http://www.nitrolicious.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/sallysingernicholaskirkwood.jpg">these</a>, but those have been seen EVERYWHERE, and I wanted to showcase something a little different... </span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><div><br /></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBV85V3NiGormnWAZpYJR6da9j_wWbx4PyEFRO9Mk2NhZeNaTvyy2EOVvAisokEr_mpuP9uGy2Yu0VOMo0Avmkbe3Fw06lFEY61GptUcGRdkxin3BuvRHAwPO-XjSMQZyasnDcCbNjomo/s1600-h/Picnik+collageSRossi.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 463px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 410px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373017719797709794" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBV85V3NiGormnWAZpYJR6da9j_wWbx4PyEFRO9Mk2NhZeNaTvyy2EOVvAisokEr_mpuP9uGy2Yu0VOMo0Avmkbe3Fw06lFEY61GptUcGRdkxin3BuvRHAwPO-XjSMQZyasnDcCbNjomo/s400/Picnik+collageSRossi.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"> These Sergio Rossi shoes are by far my faves. I could be a tad biased because I have this thing for 'fashion with a conscience'. They are biodegradable heels! The thought of a biodegradable shoe just makes the corners of my mouth turn up in a smile formation and them being well made, not cheap or unattractive looking, is a plus! So to anyone who thinks that earth friendly shoes have to be clunky sneakers, I'm here to prove you wrong.. or rather these shoes are here to prove you wrong. I mean, just look at them! There is often a negative connotation that goes along with 'Biodegradable Clothing' many people with a right fashion sense wouldn't give them the time of day, but sometimes a cork heel is all you need to compliment a cocktail dress...<br /><br /></span><br /><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgps480EwuhG8gTWcqxA_qoC2ig-ibCa54vpoM86nFDI4E0t29Nw_NtBR-Qmbn4sxym8tsHY0qwL_Gz5VE2DCjM7WnMTxjJHbGUO-dogZtlStuXbi25z3dsalXhtwRtUXz7R1CLsLQSDRQ/s1600-h/654327_large.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 313px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373017716192146722" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgps480EwuhG8gTWcqxA_qoC2ig-ibCa54vpoM86nFDI4E0t29Nw_NtBR-Qmbn4sxym8tsHY0qwL_Gz5VE2DCjM7WnMTxjJHbGUO-dogZtlStuXbi25z3dsalXhtwRtUXz7R1CLsLQSDRQ/s400/654327_large.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">These handmade shoes are from a label by the name of <a href="http://finsk.com/finskhomepage.html">Finsk</a>, under the helm of designer Julia Lundsten. </span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">I like where this label is going with its use of bi-products from other industries, that alone decreases their carbon foot print by a ton, by using already used materials you don't have to go using energy resources to make new. The brand has also caught the attention of iconic shoe designer Manolo Blahnik, who has said that the shoes are, "Divine, exquisite, and perfect"... and I can't agree more!

What makes it soooo long is that to show I have thought about this question (yes i have a brain and from time to time i use it.)</span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"></span><br /><div align="center" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:Arial;">BACK ON TOPIC. *clears throat like a scholar* *stares intently like Edward Gorey* geez I'm more off task than a middle school child at the end of the school year. </span></span></div><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span></span><p><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:Arial;">My answer could be supported with a little tidbit about myself in that when my English teacher ask me to answer some thoughtful question about a story and I don't feel like thinking I quote Dylan. It's true. Then I get gold stars 'cos she thinks I'm far beyond my peers in the intellectual department. When really i just quoted like </span><span style="font-family:arial;"><i>Blowin' In The Wind</i> or something. This is what I mean, it could be as little as hearing a song for the first time (well for me it was MAJOR hearing any Dylan song for the first time)</span></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">Or it could be a major life change like getting married. idk, the thing that I think of the most as of late is..... bloggers, yeah i know it sounds shallow, come to think of it this whole damn thing is about ME ME ME, "pretty soon we'll be wading in the kiddie pool, I thought i was deep" (yes those are song lyrics) but i have a few blogger peoples that really inspire me and 'cos they inspire me they make me better. </span></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">Like when <a href="http://fashionpirates.blogspot.com/">belle</a> quotes Palahnuik or recommends a book then I'll go to the library and pick up a few books, books that i haven't read before, or cared to read 'cos i didn't know how awesome they were. I LOVE BOOKS. Or if tavz recommends an architecture in helsinki song that I can't get out of my head, its because of her that i gave it a listen in the first place. I don't want to say that reading a book or hearing a song changed my life but it certainly added to it. What else.... how about <a href="http://www.style.com/fashionshows/review/S2009RTW-CMMEGRNS">CdG spring 09</a> , well any Comme des Garcons show really, just looking at the pictures or video you can feel the tension or whatever tone Rei (first name basis obvs) was going for. ANYONE who has ever been apart of the comme des garcons creative juices or collaborated with the line has to know that whatever comes out is going to be amazing and next levs. wow. is it possible to go off on a tangent while typing? 'cos I just achieved that and I should stop typing now, but I won't because these are my exact feelings atm and I have soooo many thoughts. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">Basically what I'm trying to say is that if you actually take time to notice ppl and things, you can learn alot from them. Pay attention. Never stop discovering.</span></span></p><p><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">Thanks for hearing my thoughts. I would like to know what you think and whatnot. any books to recommend? songs? musings on life?</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"></span></p>the StReeT chanteusehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16055571611921485461noreply@blogger.com0
