tragedy, ecstasy, doom, and so on

This outfit was inspired by a Mark Rothko painting that was in my art history textbook. I was all stressed out and I turned the page and saw the painting and it almost moved me to tears. I can’t explain why. It’s just vaguely rectilinear areas of color, sure, but it moved me.

I really like this, the color of the sash is such a nice compliment to the dress (which is awesome, by the by)

All around fab! The jacket especially. I love jackets soooo much, but none of them ever look good on me because I'm so busty. >:(
