bad becomes good
ohayo everyone. god our first motel, the room heat was shut down midnight.. we got frozen! but don’t care cuz today i want to talk about my little thought, a little warm kind. after my phone got snatched on the 1st, i sometimes remember about it and the memory still scares me. on the other hand, i think (but not too much) about how to deal with whatever not good comes to my life. i don’t expect it to come to me but just want to be able to deal with it, or go through it, or think it’s even good(!) for me if it really needs to come. sometimes, maybe often, i like to try turning bad into good. if i get my favorite shirt dirty, i’m even (trying to be) happy cuz that means i get a chance to make it into a different piece. this yellow skirt got some black ink recently so i just played with those spots. the skirt’s second life has started:) also it is totally the same as playing music for me. when i play improvised music with other musicians, we focus on all the sounds of each other very very carefully, even one little tiny noise, and try to get the attractive harmony. any kind of sounds can be something special in the space if you really go feel it. it can be interesting, shocking, or impressive. and then it will stay withing you.
yes, expression is unlimited if it really comes from your heart. have you looked up Songs For Kids yet? look look, then you would know that their idea is simply right. and fun to know it too. let’s donate to support them <3. thank you for all the comments always, they make my heart warm in this snow. happy december 5 to you all. xa
today’s outfit: my LBD, yellow stitched skirt & fullmoon badge by akigoto, snake skin pattern leggings, and rain boots donated by the eBay Green Team.

Your thought process is so inspiring. We all call music one of the big loves in our life, bt completely miss out on how it can help the kids. Thanks for sharing his cause with us. That stained yellow skirt rocks!

your artsy style is cool. that should keep the month interesting. save trafels!
On a totally different note: UP, it’d be very interesting to see a pilot with a corporate job. being creative within the confines of strict corporate dress code should make for an interesting month to those of us who are struggling to be creative within the same constraints.

I like your style, how you write, your pictures, your dog – it is really good to see you here.

I love the skirt as a bustier!! So unique

@pimientaconcerezas: I love your idea! That adds a whole new realm of creativity, and would help me in my own, since I’m constrained by the confines of a conservative work dress code…..

UP, please, please, please take the commenter up on the corporate idea. Us creative types struggle to conform yet not, in such environments. I would so love to see someone be able to pull that off. UP is the best!!

yes yes! someone in a corporate context would make a great addition to your pilots… written, of course, by someone who works in a corporate context! (which isnt to take away from any pilots to date, of course)

@pimientaconcerezas, I totally agree! Also, to UP: as a scientist but also someone who loves art/fashion/music, I think it would be great to see a fellow scientist do this challenge, to see more exposure for the face behind scientific discoveries in a lab (we aren’t crazy mad scientists! we care passionately about knowledge but also the human race!), and to see support for science education in 2nd/3rd world countries.

@md, @pimientaconcerezas, and others – I completely second the idea to show someone with a professional dress code successfully show us other prof.’s how they could do the UP! It may sound weird, but I work in a very prof. environment and would love to be able to know how to replicate this project’s idea in my life. I struggle with how to have style and still look like I’d fit in in an office!

It would really give me (and others, I suspect) a great bonus reason to donate to the UP cause!

I heartily agree with the others…. the LBD in a corporate setting would be splendid…and I’ve been also thinking it would be cool to see an LBD modeled by a SAHM (stay-at-home-mother). Both of these roles are a challenge for women to not let their individuality be swept away by a) the office setting and b) the physical/emotional drain of caring for children.

Very cute so far this month!! Love the repurposed clothing!! Also love the ideas about corporate setting and a possible plus sized pilot! Not every follower is as tiny as the pilots. Thanks for all the pilots!!

You are amazing! So inspiring and so original!

LOVE the idea of a plus size pilot. I’m a pluz sized model and I’d really love to see how a fuller figure could handle the pilot – especially as layering seems to be the key to keeping the dress fresh.

Joining the chorus above — a professional Pilot, a stay-at-home-mom Pilot, a plus-sized Pilot would be most welcome!
Love the leggings!
