What I Am

I would like to drape myself in a flag, twist my hair up in a bun, and look effing cute. Also, I would like to have honey skin that glitters in the sun and causes some people to go blind with pure envy. Like this Brazilian girl, snapped by Garance Dore:



I'm pretty much on the other side of the envy, near blind, when I tell myself it's time to let out my hippie freak-a-leak. But no matter how much I say I'm going to lay out in the sun and wear mismatched bathing suits and let my hear dread-lock itself into oblivion, I always end up asking for a trench coat for Christmas (by the way, thank you mom and dad for following up on that request).

In other news, look at my cute new oxfords...sigh.
