I mean, if I decide to dress like a New York glamazon or something, who's to say that that isn't MY style? Could it even be the case that what is considered "our" style is something projected onto us by our audience?<br /><br />Or am I overthinking? :-)Chalkdust and Bootshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12149895782195943926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6121494988300540592.post-88212452578264468032010-11-09T13:06:15.297-05:002010-11-09T13:06:15.297-05:00You raise a good question about projected identity...You raise a good question about projected identity - what's an accurate reflection versus a kind of costume. It's really a blurry line. I realized yesterday that I often dress like a dancer. I used to take classes, perform, and go out dancing for fun, but I never considered myself a dancer at all, just a recreational one if anything. I love leotards and tights and swishy ballroom skirts, though, so a lot of my clothing mimics those shapes, and it makes me feel very elegant...at my office job. Er...bleh. Sometimes I wonder if any of my clothing is REALLY me, or if, as I've been immersed in fashion blogs for the last couple of years, I'm on a long experiment. Though clothing has the power to project my second skin identity, chosen or existing, I think sometimes it can overwhelm me...and I guess part of it is just needing to know myself really well in the first place.<br /><br />All to say, that's a good, deep question!Angelahttp://www.angelavicente.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6121494988300540592.post-44983482979724687662010-11-09T00:05:02.653-05:002010-11-09T00:05:02.653-05:00Arrrgh!
