Less Than Zero

Warning: I feel a tangent coming on.

After several recommendations, I finally read 'Less Than Zero' by Brett Easton Ellis, the same author of 'American Psycho' and 'the Rules of Attraction.' With the first few paragraphs you are sucked into a vaccuum otherwise known as Los Angeles, Christmas vacation, or home with the parents, what have you. Semantics. I've never been a fan of LA, however, found myself wanting to be in the dysfunctional company of Clay and peers, the main character of this ever downward spiraling story.

Maybe it was the 85 degree weather this weekend, maybe it was details of driving with the roof down or the excruciating heat that makes you agreeable to anything, but I'm now more than ever ready for summer and of course, summer wardrobe and activities. So now, I am faced with the puzzle of new pieces to be looking to add to my monochromatic, primarily knit, denim and leather closet. Vintage shopping to commence this weekend in search of wonderful men's button downs (the obvious), more Sperry's and Keds, a plethora of soda pop parlor mini-skirts and some body con dresses to off throw my primarily draped and oversized wardrobe. Will keep informed of any finds.
