Sounds of Silence







Every time I come back home, I end up digging through boxes and boxes of old clothes, things that at some point I decided I didn't want around, but couldn't bare to fully part with--so I shipped them north for my endlessly patient parents to deal with (to be fair, however, being a pack-rat runs in the family). This is a good thing, because odds are that my tastes have changed since I last was up in my little attic room, and it seems like I always come away with some rediscovered treasures. So far, I've found this pretty creamy I. Magnin blouse and a pair of yellow Gloria Vanderbilt flats (just like my trusty green ones!) And of course my record collection, that thankfully will be coming back East with me this time. A thousand hoorays!

I prefer Simon and Garfunkle on cassette, preferably with hand-drawn art.

Oh and nice shoes.

you get to revitalize your wardrobe with things you've already bought, but possibly forgotten about. no extra $ and guaranteed to fit. it's the perfect set-up!

Those shoes are divine! If I had enough clothes to be spilt up, I'd probably do something similar with them, leave some at my Mum's for re-discovery at antoher time! Want to swap links? Char x

I love looking into the family costume box and my old clothes and finding something I like. What great things to rediscover! The blouse is so pretty, and who doesn't love Simon & Garfunkel? And I must say the mask is fantastic.

Oh, I like these photos a lot. Maybe teh light makes them so ethereal? Lovely anyhow.

Maybe I also like this post because I've been listening to Simon and Garfunkel recently... :)

Thanks everybody! I've been on a pretty heavy Simon and Garfunkel kick too lately. I think "The Only Living Boy in New York" is probably one of the greatest songs ever written. Char, I'd love to swap links. And alex, I'd probably prefer S&G on tape too if SOMEONE hadn't given a sweet record player for my birthday...
