Colors - pt 2.5 winter whites / winter light
the color that day was white
and i liked how it bounced back that cold luminescent winter light.
plus, nothing like a chance to indulge my other two favorites so far in 2011 (well....forever...):
flouncy twirly skirts and gypsy carnivale style.
by checking my little witchy daybook, i see that this was the day that darin and i got a used smiths album which we've been listening to nonstop ever since, ate nachos at dos coyotes, and then went to see True Grit which made me feel like taking off on horseback across the forests and prairies and sleeping in a cave or a coffin.
i had thrifted these vintage acme cowgirl boots the day before.
i was going to sell them in my shop but they were just too damn comfortable.
so i am switching them out for one of my older pairs and taking these to the streets!
all kindsa jewelry.
i promise a more interesting post soon!
there's a lot of way better stuff going on than my outfits, but for now i don't have the heart to skip these color-oriented shots i took. although i do have to get this color-by-the-day thing in hand, before i let my superstitions get the best of me and fall into anxiety about me wearing the wrong color causing the world to end.
for now i still kinda like thinking (within reason...let's hope...) that my clothing corresponds to some ethereal energy of each day. white is for love, friendship, reconciliation, and beauty...corresponds with fridays.
i can hang with that.

Comments
White, pristine, unblemished
They say it is not a color
I love white mists, clouds
Lingering on blue mountains.
The rest of the poem meanders but I like that bit :) You look very lovely in white, my dear. Your special pretty wonderfulness is going out on Monday- get ready!
