Underwear by Acne
I've been tagged by my dear fellow blogger from
Frauenzimmer. While I usually ignore those tags, I thought this subject is actually quite interesting and I'm going to answer the questions as well.
What are you getting weird looks for on the street?
Nowadays I rarely notice those looks anymore, but sometimes friends tell me afterwards and I suppose it's because of the way I dress. I don't know whether those looks are meant positive or negative though. Sometimes it's not just a look but also a comment, like are you gay or what and I find this rather amusing and quite silly to judge someone because of their style or even use the word gay as an insult.
How do you handle these reactions?
Depends on the situation. Sometimes I just ignore them, sometimes I stare back and sometimes I approach them and start a conversation.
Do you like to provoke people or stand out in the crowd?
I guess it's nice to be noticed rather than being unnoticed, which is also a reason why I have this blog. But I'm not dressing while thinking oh yeah, this will surely get lots of attention on the street. I dress the way I do because I like it and it's just me.
On another note, some people have asked me to present some of my favourite blogs, since I'm subscribed to so many with my
Google Reader. There's a link on the right side called
Inspiration Troves. I'm always tagging interesting blog entries in my
Google Reader and then they all land in a special folder in the reader itself and you can take a look at it by following the link mentioned before.
