Gladsvart

Man kan ha olika anledningar till svart klädsel. Man kan tex tänka som Johnny Cash:

Well, you wonder why I always dress in black,
Why you never see bright colors on my back,
And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone.
Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on.

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down,
Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town,
I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime,
But is there because he's a victim of the times.

I wear the black for those who never read,
Or listened to the words that Jesus said,
About the road to happiness through love and charity,
Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me.

Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose,
In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes,
But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back,
Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black.

I wear it for the sick and lonely old,
For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold,
I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been,
Each week we lose a hundred fine young men.

And, I wear it for the thousands who have died,
Believen' that the Lord was on their side,
I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died,
Believen' that we all were on their side.

Well, there's things that never will be right I know,
And things need changin' everywhere you go,
But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right,
You'll never see me wear a suit of white.

Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day,
And tell the world that everything's OK,
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,
'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black.

Nätkjolar på OS

Jag gillar de svarta prisutdelningstjejernas kjolar som sticker fram under kapporna! Gladsvart och annorlunda. Men hur hittar man dem på bild?!

Update Medal escorts The third outfit, to be worn by the volunteers who will escort athletes to accept their medals — is more formal. The vintage ski coat-inspired jacket is worn over a caged petticoat and boots.

Yumi Eto, the name on the lips of Vancouver's fashion cognoscente, is about to go big. Very big. Think Karan, Miyake, Westwood. Names so established, their clothes have become a brand.

Pistol & Malin

De höga heter Pistol och de låga heter Malin. I konsekvensens namn? Eller för att locka sådana som mig?

Dagens

Slapparsöndag i helgrått. Borde lägga till ett hjärta nånstans...

Cecilia karikerar

Jag gillar Cecilia. Nu utklädd till bibliotekarie. "En karikatyr av en nördig bibliotekarie bredvid henne. Page. Stickad kofta. Ofarlig kjollängd. Lågklackat."
