psscha! Tampa is all kinds of messed up...especially within fashion...flip flops are the choice of shoes for the majority year round. Tampa has no cultural history or city history...which is so sad. I grew up in Portland, Maine where LL Bean boots and flannel shirts are worn and then moved to flip flop tank top land. When looking at street fashion of the major cities I am filled with jealousy...a smidge. These people live in cities that are alive...their art scene and fashion scene and music scene and over all cultural scenes are huge and changing. poo. These people has opportunities to meet so many interesting people and are exposed to the GREATEST and the NEWEST. double poo. What would it take to get Tampa to the same level? haha a lot!!!
ok so I can't say that Tampa is all bad...such as you can meet some interesting and cool looking people at a night at the CASTLE. but the art scene has almost died here......the four biggest galleries all closed...that is very frustrating...but even when they were open, they weren't visited...the same small group of artsy people would only go...Gala Corina brought in a large crowd...but I'm undecided about the quality of the art work and the fashion.
What I think about is...if I had grown up in a big stylish city what would my style have evolved into? or would my artwork be different? I wonder how much your surroundings effect how you become?
I LOOK FORWARD TO MOVING TO STOCKHOLM........................enough of this Friday rant!
look at this photo. this is my inspiration of the day. Photographed by wacky FACEHUNTER Yvan Rodic in London.
i love the clear jelly flats and the ary/graffitti posters in the background, and the fact that she is riding a bike in a sweet girly dress. that is just too perfect and too cute.
I leave you with this delicious photo of Kate Moss...I love the detail in the bottom corner. ciao ciao.
