Fashion Query
Things don’t add up. The fashion world has long favored the zombie look. You know what I mean: that blank stare with a mix of menace and only-in-your-dreams. With the interest in vampires as evidenced by the Stephanie Meyer’s The Twilight Saga book series and the movie it spawned, and the HBO series True Blood, one has to wonder why a “fang banger” look hasn’t emerged in fashion spreads. The duo teethmarks on the neck with alluring trickle of blood. The Do-It-With-Bats retro clothing line to tie in with Dracula. There are count-less opportunities.

Jeff - Great stuff. You make some excellent observations on our society. The "mix of menace and only-in-your-dreams" was perfect.
ReplyDeleteDrifted off into your recommended links for some music that's refreshingly different than the crap you hear everyday. Tripped across The Pagan Jug Band and look forward to the chance to hear them in Portland.
Keep up the great work.
