The scent of the decades
To me each decade has a different smell, taste, feeling. In the '80, '90, everything was sweet, almost vanilla taste, warm, fuzzy, the hair were big, fluffy, the trousers were loose, you could make your own clothes by coloring them in random color in the washer, writing slogans and peace signs all over them. You
could be creative and create almost whatever you pleased, you could even wear a lower part of pajamas and a sweater from your father, and you would be IN! Cut those jeans there, cut a shirt short, tie it into a nut under the chest, put a big bow in your hair, let your hair dry naturally- the bigger, wavier and fuzzier- the better! Everything was loose, aloud, free, loving, sweet. Girls were warm, sweet too.

missing allstars sneakers, big wavy fluffy hair with big red or pink lips, loose pants and loose one-shoulder dance shirts, big bows in my hair, shirts with songs written on (that I wrote), freedom... Maybe, or most certainly it is so, it's a growing thing too. All the things are the things that separate Youth and Adulthood, but still...the Carnival time is upon us- I see this time as an opportunity to be whatever I want and whoever I want for one night.
I can live out my sentiment than,wright? ;) So,what will you be dressed as?
