moved house

And so I've come to the end of the road.

We've all known it was going to happen.

I'm not interested in writing about fashion exclusively. I don't want to post a bunch of WIWT posts. I think personal style is a wash, mostly, and I don't care enough to pretend to be interested in how people wear their Forever 21 tops with their Target collab finds. 

I've evolved from the person who started this blog in 2008, a time in which I was grappling with how to release my desire to be creative while working a 9 to 5 desk job. It's time to move on. 

I'll be writing at culturedswine.com for now. There will be some fashion. There will also be stories about dating, friendship, and travels. Because honestly, in my life, I don't feel like the fun should ever stop. 

See you around!

a suburban fairy tale

Once upon a time, there was a girl. She was very lonely. Or so she thought. But she still had her imagination and lots of fluffy thoughts thanks to novels but Netlifx, mostly. One day, she was introduced to a boy with whom she thought she had a connection despite the protestations of her friends (every single one of them). And so she opened herself up to him. Until one day, she discovered that he wasn't a rat or even a super rat, but just a scared little mouse.

Alone again, she wandered thoughtlessly for a few weeks until she saw a beautiful Boy in the windows of a black and white store. It was as if this Boy had been waiting for her all along, to be embraced in her arms and to swing proudly from her shoulder. It's so much easier to get the jokers out of the deck when you've got the world's most perfect Boy by your side. Well, in addition to your personal band of homegrown pink princess terrorists.
