Sweet Fantasy

Sunday, November 21st, 2010

It seems that all I’ve been craving for is sweet treats and just sugary things in general. Maybe it’s the holiday season…how about you guys? What are you craving to eat?

And Remember this quote from Anna Wintour whenever you hear someone makes fun of fashion or models. Fashion makes people uncomfortable because people don’t want to confront with their own insecurities.

I think what I often see is that people are frightened about fashion. Because it scares them or make them feel insecure, they just put it down. On the whole, people that may say, the mean things about our world, I think that’s usually because they feel, in some ways, excluded or, you know, not a part of ‘the cool group’ so as a result they just mock it. Just because you like to put on a beautiful Carolina Herrera dress or a pair of J Brand blue jeans instead of something basic from K-Mart it doesn’t mean that you’re a dumb person. There is something about fashion that can make people really nervous.
– Anna Wintour, The September Issue (2009)

Hope you’re having an amazing weekend! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
