The nogoodforme Wayback In Time Machine: Guides to the Kinks and Red Lipstick, Pretty Pics of Pretty Rock Stars, Fashion-Centric Vids + When We Did Interviews With People Like St. Vincent
You know, normally we don't live in the past, but sometimes it's fun to raid our archives and rediscover stuff that even *we* forgot that we wrote. I mean, there have been MILLIONS of words written here! Lots to dig up! Anyway: here's what was up with us on the last week of June/first few days of July--one, two, three, even four years ago. CRAZY.
A YEAR AGO
LJ gives you a beginner's initiation into the wonderful world of the Kinks, which eventually lead to Ray Davies' induction into our Style Icons series. I was obsess-o about red lipstick and I thought pictures from amazeballs photog Tim Walker were super-pretty. I still think they are, but I'm over red lipstick. I discovered red lipstick is just too much responsibility for this woman, like cleavage and relationships that occur in close proximity to my physical location within a continuous period of time. I'm working on that last bit, but if that doesn't pan out, I may have to wield my red lipstick powers once again. And where was Liz Barker? She was probably surfing the ocean blue. That Liz Barker, she's so magical!

TWO YEARS AGO
It was more fashion news-y stuff at this point, but we did combine our YouTube sleuth skills with our love of stylee and made a list of our favorite fashion-centric videos. Would we still pick the same ones now? Also kind of funny to note that we hadn't color-coded our subheads yet. Who knew that I'd love bright, punchy yellow-orange so much?

THREE YEARS AGO
We did interviews! With people like St. Vincent and lovelies like Tara from SWANClothing! What do you think? Should we try to do more interviews again? Who would you want us to ask impertinent questions of and get style and music tips from?

FOUR YEARS AGO
Did you know that Liz is responsible for all the Jenny Lewis content in this blog? She is! I think she gets the trophy for the first unicorn mention as well. That Liz Barker! I told you, she's so magical!

I get really excited whenever y'all post anything about where you shop (it's almost always a brand/shop I've never heard of). That said, content is pretty perfect. Liz's post that accompanies 'Acid Tongue' (it involves kicking apples) is something I return to frequently, and I really love Reading, Watching, Wearing b/c each of you, plus the commenters, are always reading, watching, and wearing cool shit.
