Fashion hurts

When it comes to the complex world of 'fashion' blogging there are things I don't understand. Usually I just sigh enviously while scrolling through others lookbooks wondering why I am the only person in the world who doesn't own a pair of JC's Lita shoes, or why there's no one who wants to take 1,000,000 pictures of me coquettishly standing in an alley somewhere.

Then every once in awhile I find something like this -

oooh girl, work that haystack.

BWHAHAHA... I don't get it! Is this fashion? For every chic fashionista out there, there's someone who just buys the expensive clothes that are on trend this season so that they can take photos next to a haystack in an outfit you would probably never wear in a field. I mean, I get it, girl saw a pretty field, she was dressed in fave urban outfitters crochet vest, so she takes some 'not-looking-into-the-camera' photos.

Disclaimer: I've definitely posted a few times about seasonal trends I like and my thrift scores. I don't think I'm quite at this level yet though.

Craigslist Missed Connections

Is it just Portland Craigslist or is every city this creepy and weird? Is it the lead-up to the holidays that makes people desperately reach out to the randoms they've recently met?

Exhibit A - The creepy faux "I saw you, or let me congratulate you for being hot."

Using my powers of deduction, I have deduced that this is probably the same creepy guy. Who works out at my gym btw.

“Whew I tell ya, I’ve never met a woman who’s been able to adequately massage me like you did last night.”

“I know this is a long shot but… I was the bald guy with the goatee, who bought you a bull ride.”
