chanel pre-fall 2012 details

i am really not a fan of chanel in that way people do where they quote coco without checking the source because coco chanel reminds me of terry richardson in that she was talented so people completely ignored all the problematic bullshit she participated in, only terry richardson is a molester and coco chanel openly supported hitler. blech.

i don’t know, chanel is being run by karl lagerfeld who is kind of a mess of issues, too, and i know there are a lot of people in the industry who are given a free pass due to being good at aspects of their job, so where do i start? i mean, i think there’s a way to both like and condemn disney movies and push for change there, so can i do that with specific designers? how can i get people to be more aware?

(i just feel like i really like this picture, but it drives me crazy because i do not like karl lagerfeld’s way of dealing with things in a social kind of way, and that basically just gets to the bottom of my drive to figure out how to be involved in fashion in a way that isn’t totally fucked up and ugly.)

i bought these a few days ago and kind of forgot about them a little, but i just looked at them and imagined how good i’m going to feel wearing them, and my day got a million times better. like i actually let go of all of my passive-aggressivity and self-hatred and anger because i have newly available lingerie that i like.

lingerie is forever more than just for the bedroom.

lingerie is my armor.

once upon a time when i was getting regularly paid to stand in front of a camera and feel self-conscious because i wasn’t good at it and actually did not like it even though i thought i did, someone told me she was glad i was “modeling” because she thought i was so ~alternative~ and ~atypical~ and i think she might have meant it as a compliment for my ~unique special self~ and my ~unique special face~ but today i can’t get it out of my head and all i want to do is not be like that at all. i really don’t want to look like a model, either, and it makes me so frustrated when people think that i strive to look like that sort of non-threatening pretty; nine times out of ten, i’d rather just freak people out so much they forget whatever unsolicited comment they were going to make.

bleh.
