~*~*someone please tell anne boleyn, chokers are back in again*~*~

before my 5 year spiral into the 'spooky kid' style during high school, there was someone who inspired me to wear vintage slips, ripped stockings, and mary janes. this was when i was in 6th grade. i quit gymnastics and started taking guitar lessons. i sketched babydoll dresses and had my gramma make them for me out of pink satin, vintage lace, with giant bows.
in 1998 my best friends from sedona and i saw HOLE play and i think we were all completely blown away. we made signs covered in glitter hearts and waited for her after the show. but there were hundreds of people waiting. she ran by and waved, jumped in a limo and drove off. right after moving to LA i ran into her at a rehearsal studio. we walked by one another and she cracked a smile at me. my heart sank. what do you say to someone who has been beyond a huge inspiration?





you dont.

to this day she is one of my biggest fashion icons. ♥
