"vampire" is not a career choice

Okay, I don't care about all the haters when it comes to this outfit of Michelle Obama's; shit, that is how you wear a cardigan when you want it nipped in at the waist but it needs to fit over your hips and ass. To hell with alla y'all!! I love it.

Last night we went out for [livejournal.com profile] star_maple's birthday at Vancouver's Most Parasitic Restaurant, and across Davie Street I noticed a new green canopy that proclaimed, "Transylvanian Traditions". !! It's a relatively new bakery boasting Eastern European pastries and whatnot, and boy do I love new bakeries.

Unfortunately it was closed by the time we finished supper, which I suppose is to be expected; Transylvanians have busy night-lives, I understand.

The cut of the cardigan makes it obvious that's the way it's supposed to be worn. The first few commenters on that post don't seem to have noticed the irregular cut and I'm not reading the rest of their lame-arse fashion-crippled statements. I suddenly feel like such a fashion wanker except not so much because if I were a real fashion wanker I'd have a link to hand of a model wearing that cardie just like Michelle Obama is wearing it.

Also, she is gorgeous and I love that she wears imaginative and beautiful clothes, not just prim frocks and suits.

Okay, I am a fashion wanker.

Other Junya Watanabe cardies.

ahahahah AWESOME. I welcome fashion wankery from my friends, b/c I am lucky enough to have the type of friends who can talk about anti-racist feminism and fashion with the same aplomb. *g*

Her cardigan is beyond reproach, FARREALS.

Also, Michelle Obama appears to favour designers of colour. Fashion activist!
