SO I'm NOT a child of the internet...when I was in highschool we took typing...{YES on an electric typewriter}.....but the first computer i saw was a Commodore 64..yikes...I mean.....I LOVE technology...but it scares me a bit... Sometimes I feel like those apes from "2001:a Space Oddyssey" banging the computer with a bone looking all angry and confused...
HOWEVER...I do love what it has to offer...and Im not SUPER savvy navigating it labrynthine corridors...but I do have some things that inspire me daily...especially peoples tmblrs/blogs....so Im going to start a reoccurring entry on blogs/tumblrs I enjoy.....Starting with these few....
One of the tumblrs I started following was because of my friend Jessica who LOVES blogs and such...she somehow found this tumblr and we were ENAMOURED with it...the style...the sense of curation...and the fact that it was run by a 19 year old {now 20}who actually KNEW what Grey Gardens was {and has the tattoo to PROVE it}...we were instantly in love...His name is Shane and his tumblr is
http://bestcostumefortoday.tumblr.com/.. mean come ON!!!!! He's a cute little gothling into 50's Vintage as well as the god and goddess McQueen and Westwood!!!! He's a practicing witch and has a very refined sense of style....the images he picks are always stunning and always leave me saying "Why didn't I find that"!?!?!? Jealousy is the best form of flattery i think!!!! Since following him we have become friends and I am really impressed with what an amazing sense of style and of himself he has at such a young age!!! Definately worth following...
Im also a HUGE fan of "Of Birds and Bones"
http://tmbird.tumblr.com/ maybe not as exhibistionistic as my friend Shane...but still quietly inspiring...awlays a deluge of overwhelmingly beautiful images...sometimes with a daily theme {intentionally?}....I am always breathtaken by what this tumblr has to offer...a fellow New Yorker....I'm interested if I know this person because they sometimes post about "Dances of Vice"...my friend Shien's event night.....anyway...another defnately worth checking out....
and for the nostalgia addict in me I do enjoy both "FUCK YEAH GOTHS"
http://fuckyeahgoths.tumblr.com/ for some Batcave realness mixed with some Neu Darque flavour...and also the more cold wavey "sand in lungs"
http://sandinlungs.tumblr.com/ for something a bit more auster and esoteric...but still just dark enough.......
So theres are just a few of my daily stops on the information highway.. I do...and...please stop by...
XOXO
