Dear Karlie Kloss, I'm Sick of Your Face

/

Dear Karlie Kloss,

I respect that fact that you are one of the most beautiful girls in the world, that you have “limbs that could kick Jesus,” and you even make nice jeans. However, I’m writing to inform you I’m really sick of seeing you’re face, EVERYWHERE. Each month I get a new Vogue hoping to see the newfound talent that they deem worthy of the editorial pages, but it’s always YOU. And I feel you; you’re like a fine wine, gets better with age …but what’s wine without cheese sometimes?  A little variation, you know? You can’t answer that question because it was very clear to me after I saw your nude spread in Vogue Italia, you have probably never tasted cheese. Maybe this is more a profession of my love for you and your discipline; I like cheese, a lot.

You probably don’t remember that time we met. You were strutting through Nolita like the Amazon princess you are; casual, alone, I said “hi” and walked by; it was hugely relevant. What I'm saying Karlie, is I’m a fan of yours, always will be, but right now can you stick to making “Karlie’s Kookies” somewhere dark and pressless, and let someone else get an editorial? That is all, stay tall!

Best Regards,

Claire

In a frantic clutter-attack today, I decided to get rid of everything in my closet I did not love enough to hang on my wall and look at forever. I don't actually plan on displaying my coveted clothes on my studio walls, however I am passionate about buying less and loving what I own. In practicing what I preach, today happened.  Buffalo Exchange on 26th street in Chelsea was ecstatic, and I'm sure anyone else who comes and sifts through the racks will be just as excited to see half of my life there. In all seriousness, it's a tad bittersweet, the empty hangers are a bit nostalgic, but I'm not sure I needed a studded camo LF sweater, or the teal patent Victor&Rolf flats I bought at Barney's when I was 14. Looking into my almost bare closet today I laughed to myself, thinking I'm now going to be a little more French. What I mean by that, is having fewer things of nicer quality, non-trendy, classic pieces. After selling all my clothes, I replaced the old with a few new timeless pieces that speak to this new classic minimal chic vibe I'm trying to achieve from my closet. Overall what I'm sayin' is; sell stuff you don't wear, buy things you love, and remember minimalism. xxx
