You would think I posted a string of photos of Justin Bobby rocking a mullet or something...I never imagined that the documentation of our cavortings could ever be so controversial. I realize now that perhaps this shoot was sharing too much, in that ..hem hem.. uhh 'Caldwell' was putting himself out there to be judged on a platform that sort of has nothing to do with him. I understand that because these photos did put him in that place people are going to feel free to judge him and comment on his appearance and style and that is completely fine, I'm glad to have such opinionated readers, I was just taken aback at the sometimes extreme negativity involved in doing so. I have never deleted so many comments in this blog's short lifetime! Well and one directed at me calling me an 'Asian hooker', I suppose an environment of negativity just feeds more to emerge. Or I secretly stalk the streets at night. <BR/><BR/>So, in regards to Caldwell, let me just say that I'm the one that's into fashion, not him. Those are my (awesome!) vintage sunglasses he's wearing, it was my trapper hat in the previous post, so all the random 'obnoxious' accessories are fully not his. He does subscribe much more to the Southern California look than I do, and he wears skater shoes works out and likes to surf and listens to Pepper and honestly, it's okay. I'm not going to try to change him - maybe sometimes I'll think something will look good on him that he probably wouldn't normally pick out himself so I'll get that stuff for him as a present, which is how he came into his first blazer and American Apparel items. And anon 7:33, we both liked your ideas :)<BR/><BR/>However, I'm not one of those girls that likes their boyfriend to look like they took longer to get ready than they themselves did. I'm fine with the fact that he wears random jeans and tshirts most of the time, because when it comes to males, I think they really are hotter when they look like they didn't try..at all. And wife beaters are cheesy and horrible, agreed, butttttttttt oh well. When I was getting on the ferry recently I saw some guy wearing the same 80s shades, super dark wash skinny jeans, and fitted leather jacket as I was that day (alllmost embarrassing) and thought how even though I subscribe to that style of dress, I would find it highly odd to have my boyfriend be a mirror image of me, and also sort of effeminate. But that's just my PERSONAL outlook and it sort of has nothing to do with anyone else. A lot of my friends are completely different and prefer a metro-ish look, and that's great for them. I know that people probably assume that my bf would look a certain way from the way that I dress and I'm sorry you were let down...but he's not the one with the fashion blog, I am! I definitely learned from this post that some things are better off kept less exposed and everything will be strictly fashion and Rumi from now on...<BR/><BR/>But thank you so much to EVERYONE for all of your comments..especially about my neon dress hahah, I love it so! Let me see if I can get to the logistical questions now...<BR/><BR/>In regards to the photo count and loading problems, sorry, I use imageshack to host and because they're so unreliable I try to post more so that at least some are likely to load! And for this post, it was hard to edit since there were so many different settings I wanted to share :)<BR/><BR/>The blazer was a secondhand find, I had to remove the shoulder pads to make it wearable! BUT since it's sort of pointless to have two navy blazers, I'm thinking about listing my other one this weekend in the store for all of you blazer-hunters! <BR/><BR/>Rich Hippie, definitely okay to feature!<BR/><BR/>Anon 12:04, they are indeed my perforated ones, good memory you have! They don't look as perforated as you would think, do they?<BR/><BR/>One Sweet day, ahhah I noticed the unevenness afterwards and kind of liked it too :)<BR/><BR/>Anon 1:33, you sound so sweet, thank you for your kind words.<BR/><BR/>Anon 4:58 haha sorry if you're serious, but you gave us both a good laugh!! :p<BR/><BR/>Friar, thanks for your many insights and taking the time to write that out, I hate the Rs and the 7s as much as you do! Oh wait let me add to that males in button flap pocket jeans, not sure if it's worse when they're actually True Religions cause you know they paid $300 for them or if they're knockoffs...hmmmm. Anyway, will call you soon, chuff!!<BR/><BR/>Lianne, we took these behind an out of business grocery store...random huh!<BR/><BR/>Ida, I'm currently using a Sony Cybershot DSCW55, super cheap and I got it at Target...I'm thinking about upgrading soon!<BR/><BR/>Haha anon 8:58 perhaps you're right that it was a "you had to be there" thing, we just wanted to share :) - thanks for your sweet comment.<BR/><BR/>Kit, hahha crocs. I actually saw an ad in the latest VOGUE (the Gwyneth one) for HIGH HEELED CROCS! I almost retched on the spot.<BR/><BR/>Talioo...glad you like our writing, that means a lot!<BR/><BR/>Whew...sorry I can't respond to each individually, I'm off to eBay land to put up some more vintage. Thank you to all of my readers, once again, this post was quite an experience. And I will refer to my boyfriend as Caldwell on this blog perhaps forever. That is hilarious.

But I can't help commenting on Caldwell's outfit - after all, he is accessorizing to match you, is posing, and is essentially, modeling fashion. <BR/><BR/>Caldwell: Being defensive and saying that the only way you'll please the readers is by dressing like a band member or wearing skinny pants is not only close-minded, but wrong because 1.) you neglected to entertain the fact that they could be right and 2.) no one ever said you need to dress a certain way. If your outfit was normal in a way that was not offensively awful, readers probably would not have commented. Unfortunately, your outfit is offensively awful, and it doesn't matter if it was a hot day or if you were just lounging around. You don't just look bad, you look unrespectable and like someone who is uneducated and unintellient. Someone above described it as NJ Guido and LA douchebag. Those are pretty offensive terms, but...it's true. I'm sure you are a great person, but our exterior needs serious help.
