Joie:  as the song says – “I used to be disgusted, now I try to be amused.”  and as another song says – “I wear black on the outside because black is how I feel on the inside.”i have a weakness for corset backs

outfit details: black corduroy cutaway military jacket was found at london’s camden market last year; black and white silk skirt is chaus; red mary jane shoes are tsubo acreas

song inspiration: ‘(the angels wanna wear my) red shoes’ by elvis costello.  because they do.  and because you know i love cutting lyrics set to infectious melodies.  this song is a sarcastic, pissed-off classic – originally released in 1977, it’s cynical and upbeat at the same time with a driving beat and an ‘i don’t give a damn’ attitude and it makes me want to sneer and spit on something to show my great disdain.  punkabilly rules, guys.  it just does.
