Lately I've been getting up and going, "Euhh, I don't want to put any effort into my outfit today." So this is the first non-lazy outfit in a while. I was going for general 90's vibes, I guess. Jane Lane/60s revival/schoolgirl witches/alternative rock.
I made these dioramas? Shrines? Moodboards? I don't know what to call them, but basically I emptied two of my bookshelves and arranged stuff I felt fit a particular aesthetic. I have a bunch of other bookshelves, so I may do more with this in the future. Now I just have find a place to put all my books.
I saw
The Virgin Suicides (gee, how original) and
Girl, Interrupted recently, and so I was partially inspired by those. Mostly
The Virgin Suicides, obviously, but I threw the
Wizard of Oz book, the nail polish, and the red Barbie shoes for
Girl, Interrupted. The space wallpaper I found in the basement, and the yellow fake retro fabric I found in my closet. The rest is stuff from childhood, thrift stores, or family heirlooms. I think the little girl in the oval-shaped gold frame is my great-grandmother, but I'm not sure.
I was going for sort of late sixties/seventies/ southwestern America for this one. Summery but hot and dry and orange and brown. Like grainy old vacation photos where everyone looks slightly uncomfortable and sunburned and they're standing by some tacky, stereotyped tourist thing.
Happy Holidays!
