I'M GONNA WALK ALL OVER YOU



I'm not much for trends... In fact, I'm so stubborn & against the general brainwashing attempts mass media imparts on the human psyche, that for years I would only read two magazines; TRACE (my absolute favorite publication for all things fashion, music, creative & socially conscious related movements happening all over the world. No longer in production- which is so sad since there's nothing quite like it. I'd have to dedicate a whole blog- or five- to truly commemorate its greatness. So' let’s park it.) and Playboy, for the articles of course (wink!)  I’m not in the business of looking like anyone else but ME, so I try not to allow myself to be influenced by the calculated marketing tactics put forth to monopolize the fashion industry.

 
HOWEVER...

seems as if the trends are always catching up to me... BASTARDS!!!
Check out Miss Keri in her combat boots


a trend I've been rocking since my teenage years... back when baggy jeans & cross colors were the thing (YIKES! @ Cross colors...You see how trends got us looking like acid tripped out clowns right?! LOL) They are my signature look... the girliest tomboy: I will rock a pair of combats with skinny jeans, an evening gown, a bathing suit, my birthday suit (don't judge me). I wear them to work, parent/teacher rendezvous, to plant flowers, cook a meal, church, life changing events, chance occurrences... If I ever get to walk on the moon, they will be my space boots...Move over Buzz Aldrin!!

Some women need a freakum dress..
Give me a tall, vintage, worn out pair of combats & watch me 
TAKE OVER THE WORLD! 
 

 


FASHION IS PERSONAL! 
Decide who you are & ROCK YOU LIKE NO ONE ELSE!!! 

Ri Ri & THE BOOTS... a love affair!



Equestrian meets Haute Couture


Nothing HOTTER than a clean cut guy in combats... rough around the edges


Sexy, effortless, girl next door, grunge look... my fav!


STAY TUNED FOR A HISTORY LESSON ON KREYOL IN COMBAT!!

I AM KREYOL!
