A Window into Fashion Bloggery

RantWoman received the following couture item in email.

RantWoman especially likes that the copy is often enough to get at least some sense of the look, no mean feat for someone who obviously thinks very visually.



There also seem to be a lot of links to other fashion blogs. RantWoman does not know whether she will follow them, but other readers might be interested.



It does not hurt either that Ferrener Husband is one of the featured looks. RantWoman is leaving her readers to guess which one.



Ferrener Husband was trained as a theater teacher so he has this interesting sense of visual precision. The second law of thermodynamics, more or less about everything in the universe tending toward entropy is particularly in evidence around RantWoman. It's not exactly that RantWoman cultivates the mad scientist, girl nerd look, It's just that collars and facings seem to flutter off into separate universes whenever RantWoman puts her clothing on. Sometimes it is all RantWoman can do to get the buttons lined up correctly with the buttonholes. One of Ferrener Husband's charms is the brusque impersonal way he would come along and try valiantly to impose conventional order by pulling and tucking and generally fussing. RantWoman decided she could not possibly feel offended or affronted to feel kind of like a prop simply because she saw him do the same thing once or twice to other people in his orbit. RantWoman was always genuinely charmed rather than annoyed by this peculiar attention, no matter how embarrassed she is to need it.



Then especially at night RantWoman insists on eccentric baggage and lots of reflective elements designed to stave off hostile encounters with automobiles, another look that RantWoman actually wishes she could gracefully refine.



RantWoman is totally charmed by the blogger's interest in footwear. Footwear is one of RantWoman's enduring fixations. RantWoman is always striving for footwear that fits, that keeps her feet dry and holds up to a whole day on her feet. When functional looks fabulous, glamorous, so much the better.
