I was thinking almost the same thing earlier today—I looked in the mirror and realized that my clothes were a kind of remix, created from my experiences, habits, and beliefs. I wish I could post a picture, but I’m wearing my (much less blog-worthy) pajamas at the moment, so I’ll just describe what I was wearing earlier.<br /><br />-My sister’s green fitted T-shirt with a dinosaur on it. My sis used black fabric marker to cross out the word “Meatosaurus” and draw a smiley face in its place—she liked the image on the shirt, but neither of us are big meat-eaters. After Christmas, the shirt *somehow* ended up in my suitcase. <br /><br />-A red glass cross necklace I bought in Rome over New Years. An impulse buy, in the basement of a little Venetian glass shop. <br /><br />-A light-blue sport-watch that doesn’t work. I’ve gotten used to wearing it—the thing only broke a couple days ago.<br /><br />-Jeans that don’t fit; haven’t had time to buy a new pair, and the others are in the dryer. <br /><br />-Two pairs of stud earrings my grade school friend, Tina, gave me around Thanksgiving, because she’d bought a large pack of earrings and didn’t need all of them.<br /><br />-One black-and-red polka dotted sock, one pink sock. I wear matching socks about one day a month.<br /><br />Strange, how well this captures my personality. :) I think your project sounds fantastic. Whether consciously or not, we construct our appearances as an expression of NOT ONLY who we are, but also where we’ve been. Just another way we interact with our environments.lindylouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08557144356510124276noreply@blogger.com
