Down and Back up

Spring/summer coming and my newly found obsession is just about to get into its best because what's 60's all about? Hippie, jeans, hippie, skirts, hippie, hippie and whatever else. I was trying to find some pictures that would at least give me an idea of what the ACTUAL hippie outfits looked like (because right now there are just tons of new retro-like pictures which you can't almost recognize but in the end it's just another today's bored-human's cliche) and found some that made me not want summer to come (but I wouldn't be wearing that kind of ... clothing anyway):
No okay, I admit that this is too much and it's just a costume anyway (but I realized that just now). It's a really bad one because the clothes would be alright but look at her fricken face, which one of hippies wanted to look like Pamela Anderson/Paris Hilton with mouthful and probably faceful of botox. Fail, what a fail. Anyway this dress really reminded me of one dress I used to (or maybe still do) have for barbies which I ended playing with over 10 years ago so I don't exactly remember what it looked like but as soon I'll find it I am going to compare and laugh my ass off because not only the dresses, but the face and pose will be the same as well. So here we have another fail example of today's perspective on what hippies were actually look like. Poor them, if they've seen this, I'm sure they'd flip shit.

This one seems more like a legit 60's 70's 80's ???? picture but who the hell knows, it might be another one of those fakes that drive me mad. As you can see, they weren't afraid to wear anything and as you can see AGAIN, they didn't give a shit (I admire that). That's what I like about hippies in overall, not the clothes, oh hell no (just those kick ass Lennon sunglasses), but it's their attitude that made them who they were but after all, one czech quote says: Dress makes who you are. So maybe they dressed how they felt. Just a second, than I don't know how to describe what the second guy on the left felt like. But acting all aware of what hippie is, I will just excuse this by quoting Wikipedia: The etymology of the term 'hippie' is from hipster, and was initially used to describe beatniks who had moved into San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district. Both the words "hip" and "hep" came from African American culture and denote "awareness."
Isn't it so funny weird when Wikipedia talks about the weirdest things that people won't even describe normally but Wikipedia keeps all cool and describes literally shit using special terminology n stuff to make it obvious even for the biggest idiots on the beginning and then with the fiftieth paragraph make it the most complicated shit ever using all those alsjgrhdogdifghawoierer439witjreld words. I just love that. Don't you?
But after those crazy ass outfits, finally the good (not the good, my favorite) part comes which I already said are the sunglasses which is one big cliche but get used to it, I'm cliche (and so is the peace sign that everyone uses even though they're not hippie including the emoes, goths, anime and whatever else there is nowadays). But honestly just imagine hippies without those glasses and that sign. In the end, the cliches are the most important things (that you don't realize are important until they are missing) that make you/the certain thing/whatever who you/they/?? are. I got so confused after all those slashes that I will just literally picture myself out of this and move on to the next phase.
Now the another good break through comes. TWIGGY. Not hippie, but that's not the point, right (or is it)? Starting off the skinny bitching model life made her famous and unforgettable forever. But why am I saying this anyway if you can just google it and Wikipedia will tell you more about her using that terminology and stuff because it's simply just got it all. The sad thing is (and I think I already talked about this one time but I don't remember when or where now) that 1, I don't remember a shit and I'm not even in that age to excuse myself for not remembering anything and 2, that we all keep going back with fashion, music, everything, because it simply just was the best (and I keep going back with remembering because that's only way I can try/actually remember that thing again). But before I am off to talking complete non-sense again, I will continue with my pointless monolog otherwise I'll forget it again. Too late, I forgot what I was going to say. Oopsies. So yeah what can I say - Twiggy and flower power all the way ! ! !
And even though this is completely off the point again (but now I realized it's not), there's another thing that made the 60's 70's and so on rock. Kurt Cobain of course, but I think I'll get to him again because he's one of my most favorite people from that period of time so I won't spend my evening talking about his biography and music etc because everyone knows it anyway and you can Wikipedia it again if you want to (see link above if you're not familiar with Wikipedia/the web address). Well and how is this linking to that hippie period? Well, this basically sums up their attitude and as was said on the beginning, they didn't give a shit what others thought about their behavior and clothes, Kurt Cobain's got it all (another one who's got it all, god bless him). Now I wonder why Kurt Cobain hasn't been a hippie if they both had the same attitude and opinions on life, and they both (mostly) did drugs, but that's just another Cinderella story and I don't wanna go off to that right now. Phase #?
Now here's me again, no idea why I put up this picture (but I blame it on that I just want to show off my brand new arm party elements (see left hand). And that's the life story, I try to get myself into things that I don't belong into but since I'm a cliche 'fashion' blogger, I do need to show off my outfits n stuff so I guess that's just the part of the process. So to do the blah blah blah-ing must, I am going to talk you through my outfit like an idiot even though you can see all of it yourself (except for the t-shirt sign that by the way says I <3 NY, which is true). What should I add, just another on of my 'professional' blogger syndroms - using photobooth to take pictures of myself and not even myself today because I look like a .... so I just covered myself to then blame it on that the main point of the picture is to look at the bracelets, not me, duhhh. What else could be interesting/interested:
My cat. Of course. You can literally see the HAPPINESS sign all over his cutie patutie face. If my cat was a person, he would be a killer or just a really emotionless person (probably doing some mafia shit), I swear. And I mean it. He would be so bad ass if he were a man. That's why I'm so glad he's just a cat. I'm out of words right now. I'm just looking at that face expression right now which makes me laugh because me pretending to be all happy n stuff and my cat ruining it moment is just epic. It's the 'what the fuck is she doing' expression that he's got on every time I pick him up (because he's too badass and fat to be picked up, ah-viouslay). Be surprised or not, he's the best pet to have because he just stares and doesn't show emotions or doesn't want to pet or anything, so it's all fine. He just lies there with his 6 kilos on, and when walking, his stomach almost touching the floor. Epic, just epic. Oh, linking this to the hippie movement. He could also be a hippie - because he simply doesn't give a shit about anything. I think he'd be like their god.
I just got an idea that I could dress him up as the hippie king but no, I won't do that, because he'd probably look at me like this again and start talking just to tell me to fuck off finally.
G- night. Meow Meow.
