///VELVET///

I remember Topshop miniskirts ruling my high school wardrobe when Christina Aguilera's Dirrty music video was my one & only inspiration for nightly outings. It's pretty safe to say I own every single miniskirt they ever came out with from 2002-2005. I remember  buying four pairs of heels from Topshop a couple years back & expressing my distress aloud knowing I was only buying them for the sake of buying them. Lo & behold, I actually wore two of the four pairs! ..albeit once each. Now I'm foreseeing the future wherein I remember buying three pairs of these luxury velvet platforms & only ever wearing the black ones because the other colors were just a novelty purchase. Speaking of velvet, I remember being properly introduced to the Velvet Underground by one of my snowboarder ex-boyfriends & listening to them during every car ride (along with Bob Dylan, Pete Doherty, Johnny Thunders, &.. you get the picture). I remember Pale Blue Eyes on loop being the perfectly pleasant soundtrack to my smoking tar for the first time, after which I promised myself never to smoke that amazingly blissful shit again.

& I never did.

thought of you as my mountain top
thought of you as my peak
thought of you as everything
i've had but couldn't keep
i've had but couldn't keep
