cold. It's winter here in Southern Africa, therefore tights are almost an everyday occurance. It gets cold here, but luckily our winters are only 3 months and I missed the first 2. I just returned from a two month internship in NYC and it now seems extra cold. Went out for dinner and I wore my MJ shirt which has Beijing 2008 on it- they start this week and I love how one sporting event can create such a sense of unity + peace, if only for a short while. I read in the paper that the South African athletes were unhappy with their fashion attire...just goes to show how fashion affects everyone, everywhere.

    hidzume: sorry for the unclear photot of MJ jersey. Its a simple tee and it will most likely appear again!

    ashleigh: thanks for the add beauty! yes it is h & m - purchased a few years back. love the pink camera.

    fashion is poison: wow. thanks for the add. Sorry it's so unclear. I thought I liked the effect now it just seems extra blurry.

  13. love and squalor: I interned at TRACY REESE. SHE is such an incredible lady...and her style is insanely feminine, coupled with modern and vintage prints and styles. It was such a wonderful experience.
