遅い 大掃除 - Late Housecleaning

  My roommate's out of town for five days. The last time he left town, I turned the entire apartment into Aya's Crafting & Cosmetics Emporium. I even rezoned our balcony for small retail. (It sold fog.) It's probably going to happen again.

  Since the semester ended, I have pretty much no sense of time until I start summer school, and it's only through whimsy discipline that I am still on a diurnal schedule. I set aside today to put my apartment back in order. It really needed it; sleep, food, and housekeeping all stopped around my 3rd research paper and 2nd final presentation.

  Today's outfit is for: housecleaning!


  Still love shirt shells, but avoiding long, trailing sleeves since I'm washing dishes and cleaning a gas stove. I think this one looks a little like a yukata. What do you think?  It was overcast today, so I do not know if the photographs picked up the gold threads running vertically through the fabric. I'm really not a floral person, but I was quite taken with this shirt.


  I live most of my life in jeans. I dig skirts and how they dress up an outfit instantly, but to share a bit about myself, I am terrible at being still. I don't sit well for long periods and I don't stand in one place. I spend my time either moving around or lying flat on my back passed out.  Skirts don't mix as well with squatting, sitting splay-legged on the floor, lying upside-down on a chair with my feet on the wall, and all of the other positions I shift between throughout the day.


  What about you? I'd love to hear about how the way you move or what you do affects what you wear.
