tumbling along

So you'll have something to look at while I work myself up to original content:

A L'allure Garconniere tumblr - some posts NSFW but all are awesome. Favorite: Romaine Brooks self-portrait; link to "Queer Enough": "My woman- self is a lusty warrior. Grace Jones in a James Bond film, power-lifting a full-grown man over her head in haute couture and heels. French novelist, burlesque dancer and body builder Colette, dressed in a 19th century men’s suit."

Apochronaut (FYI, music upon opening), "travel & fashion for the pre/post-apocalyptic nomad". Favorites: Anything by Gareth Pugh.

G. D. Falksen's tumblr fashion posts, hat tip danabren, almost as good as OMGThatDress.

In honor of the Kalamazoo Medieval Congress just past, Terry Jones' Medieval Lives in their entirety [YouTube]. Actually, just all of BBC Worldwide's channel.

Writer's Block: You've got the look

My boring, decidedly preppy khakis in beige and gray.

I got them mostly because I needed some basic summer-weight pants for work, and fencing + weight gain meant that my previous stylin' pairs from Anthropologie no longer fit. Not willing to see my hard earned $ go to Rick Santorum and his ilk I couldn't replace them there so I had to settle for JCrewish basics.

You were my favorite, Anthropologie. I loved you! Why did you go all Sith on me?
