Cloaks! Yes, yes, and muffs, a la the Victorian era! So warm!

Now you tell me! Last month I cut my 2 foot pony tail off! Now my hair is like 6 inches long. I guess I'll always be a fashion geek. Although I did keep my beard... Are those hip again? I keep it short sorta like Boromir's in the flick.

Well, my stepdad has a full blown beard, and my dad has a goatee beard.

My dad used to have long hair, but he got sick of it and chopped it ALL off. It's weird getting hair tips from your father

A muff!

Gee! I used to have one when I was...oh...6 years old. I wonder where it went. There may have been a little hat to go with it. It was white and furry and I looked so cute!

But that probably has alot to do with being 6 years old.

I think I will look for a cloak after all. I'll look into making one if I can't find one. But my sewing machine will probably choke on anything thick enough to qualify as "warm" in my book. I may have to get creative. Not now though. All the stores are gearing up for spring/summer. Might be a good time to be looking for a cute little straw hat, preferably with ribbons. Gotta protect that skin from sun damage.

I've never really payed attention to what's in fashion, I just wear what's comfortable, and I couldn't care less what's in style. . .but I really like those peasant shirts and so on, just not skirts. I hate having to wear skirts and dresses and other such torturous things! Well, torturous for me, that is.

Cloaks are fun! I'm trying to finish mine so I can wear it more often. It is seriously in need of hemming, but I can't really sew. And I always wear boots.

Despite my inability to sew, I am making myself a costume for TTT for next year, and I'll probably wear it for halloween. And guess what it is. . .Legolas, of course!

Oh, I love long flowy skirts...not those tight mini things, but the hippie style skirts. They're very comfortable and cool in the summer.

I have six or eight outfits of the same type. ;) T-shirt with cargo pants.

All I have to do when picking out my clothes is decide what colour I want to wear today. I guess I'm an istar going through an identity crisis. ]: )

Jeez, sounds like my constantly changed hair color

Starr Polish · 03-28-2002, 11:17 PM

That reminds me...my hair, which has been dark for several years, used to bleach in the sun, but for the past, oh...two years it hasn't.

Today I noticed it looks like I got highlights. Must be somethign about Florida...hah.
