"You are the only English woman I know who manages to be really chic in really hideous clothes".

No.3    Elaborate fashionables
a splendid menagerie[1] (also known as fancy-full gallants[2]) place particular importance upon appearance, refined language, and leisurely hobbies, pursued with the appearance of nonchalance in a cult of Self.[3] Historically, especially in late 18th- and early 19th-century Britain, a dandy, who was self-made, often strove to imitate an aristocratic style of life despite coming from a middle-class background.

a blade runner retro-fit future




the other night someone told me
that they thought of me as a pris...
then there was a pause
and went on to add
'Pris from Blade Runner...'
i took this as a supreme compliment
and must tell you
that i have indeed been told
this quite a few times....
i certainly am in love with the look of
combining past with future.
an all time, anytime, no time
all put into one...
mixing utilitarianism
with overly fancy.
space age club kid
with a bit of antique frills...

at 4 in the morning for that last and first cup of coffee...
