a re-introduction

happy new year everyone!

i apologize for this blog being dormant for almost half a year, but since moving to the big newyawk, coupled with an intense work/school schedule, my time has not been managed properly and i confess (with some trepidation) that my knowledge of the new collections has been stunted and ignored.

however, i find it necessary to inform you of some things. firstly, i'm currently working towards a bachelor's degree in textile design at FIT. for the past few months, i've worked at uniqlo's soho flagship (for some reason, it's been WAY OVERCROWDED this year). finally, i have been soaking up the art, fashion and dance resources available to me up here, and can (hopefully) offer more city-centric view of this weird fashion world that i simultaneously love and find ridiculous.

can't wait for the new fall collections this february! i will leave you to stew over these lovely images:

oh-kay

i've been guilty of posting fashion-related things on my facebook that make most people want to gag, and considering this blog is basically an idle piece of shit, i figure i'd make fashionable use out of it.

so with that said, one question has been resonating in my head for the past 2 weeks: where in the world is lily fucking donaldson?

ps: thought i'd mention that i'll be attending the fashion institute next year for textile design. niggawhat?
