And, while i should be wrapping things up on a Friday, a bit of a post.
i want my legs to look like Anna Dello Russo's at 50. (And we can forgive her the pink heels with the red dress; she's editor of Vogue Japan and they do their own thing over there.)
While researching my Halloween costume this year, i came upon this great movie smash-up image. Also, thinking of getting these boots this weekend, 'cause i've been stalking them for at least 5 years (and stealing my younger cousin's at family gatherings). Anyway.
The Lumineers' self-titled album has been in my head for a week solid, with a nod to both Pandora (during the past month) and Asuka (who put a copy of Flowers in Your Hair in the mix she made me for the Chicago trip). i'm reasonably certain i've sent relevant tracks to most of you, so you all know this.
The Chicago trip was enjoyable, speaking of, but not as effective as hoped. Asuka PR'd by 11 minutes (!!) with the marathon, and tolerated being dragged to Zara and Topshop (so i could figure out their sizing systems for ordering purposes).
Clothing sizing systems are ridiculous. i'm a pretty solid 2 here in the States, but a 6 in most European sizes, and a Zara medium. Looking into it, anthropometry is, literally, the measure of (a) man. Wikipedia's clothing size charts are pretty fascinating, and size zero gets it's own wikipedia entry (frequently being "measurements of chest-stomach-hips from 30-22-32 inches (76-56-81 cm) to 33-25-35 inches (84-64-89 cm)".). (sigh)
Interesting NYTimes article here, as followed from wiki references.
