KIDS

love the vibe of this story on style.com, which can't help but remind me of larry clark's "kids". and middle school. even of a boyfriend i had back then, called larry. these are new, but is it always 1990-something in the new york skater scene?

anyway, browsing through the zara trf floor today i saw essentially this outfit with a more high fashion-"inspired" approach, and despite my maybe irrational opposition, i'm feeling like it's more borg ("resistance is futile") than boring at this point. or??

trends: when they remind you of an earlier you it's at first a bit funny... and then urgently inviting of sartorial reruns (random need for reconnection with freer times? – dramatic), until ultimately, an amusing afterthought. 

i'm already on the sneakers train. one baby step at a time.
