Thrifting
I need to boycott magazines for a month. This would be very hard for me to do considering all the Fall August issues will soon fill my mailbox with pages of thigh high socks, lace up booties, faux fur and musky winter perfume samples.
I need to draw inspiration from life, rather than what other's (editor's) ideas of fashion are. A few years ago I felt I had discovered something new, that the masses were yet unaware. Reminiscing, some of my favorite outfits were pieces I threw on mismatched and without planning that oddly birthed perfect creations.
I am set out to derive original thoughts from the beauty of people, nature, food, mundane daily tasks - life.
I know it is difficult to be 'original' today; the runways, department stores and shoulder pads from the 80's prove this but here's to trying.

The proud pair
One of my earliest (and very few!) memories of being poked fun at involve socks. Playing basketball in a very small town in Texas, I wore them proudly up to my knees when no one else did.
In college I sported legwarmers with heels in good taste, colorful tubes with sneakers to dance music parties or scrunched down with boots - I've always had a taste for the pair.
Seeing Chloe Sevigny's new line for Opening Ceremony has me smiling with loyalty for the leopard ones.
If you need some assistance and weren't always on board, check out Refinery's ode to the two.

Side part on lock
Getting my locks cut soon for the 28th birthday. These three girls have my eye for haircuts lately. If only I could tell my hair stylist to throw these in a blender and serve on my head.
