- being able to say your clothes are one of a kind - having a vision and bringing it to fruition, changed my life tbh - natural fabrics only

my life changed for the better when i stopped dressing to look as small as possible

I have thought about this at length, I fear. I want to look and feel at ease in my clothes and I shop for clothing very intentionally. For me the rules of outfits are: - No single-designer looks - Steam/press rarely - No logos (sneakers are the exception) - Always wear at least 1 garment with visible wear or damage - Get dressed intentionally every day - It does not matter how conventionally flattering the look is. I care only about how it makes me feel in my body - Never clean Ur (my) shoes except to keep leather in condition I shop almost exclusively second hand and in person—I only buy if I would be heartbroken to come back for a garment to find it had passed me by forever. Most pieces I see are effectively one-offs because I treat them this way. I am attracted to Japanese workwear silhouettes, modular garments, and drama. “My” colour is the shade precisely between yellow and orange. All my jewelry is gifted. I aim to keep garments until the end of their lives.

making clothes

yall i made these jeans a week ago and im fucking obsessed with how i look in them like this feeling is unattainable in pants you buy imo i came back to california for the holidays and went for a haircut then i went to the bathroom and seen myself & thought damn i look fucking good. it’s almost like i feel like i‘m in balenciaga but even more confident because i did it, not balenciaga. and these jeans if you lay them flat are very different from balenciagas as is, much more outseam shape and they’re probably baggier relative to waist size, balenciaga is big on everyone which is why they look like that tbh anyway learn to make stuff you appreciate it more and it’s really for You and it is Yours

Learning to fix clothes

gives you license to wear the shit out of your favourite pieces. garments live and breathe when material is lost through wear and added through mending
