the problem with brocade

lobsterdust:

The only problem with brocade is there is fine line between looking hot and look like you should be hung up by a window because you are a curtain

hahaha i laughed out loud at this because you are not alone in feeling that way. my mother used to call a brocade coat of mine my “couch coat” because she thought it was more appropriate as upholstery than clothing fabric.

also reminds me of one of the funnier youtube comments i’ve gotten over the years, on this video where i’m wearing a 1960s dress:

why are you wearing your bedroom curtains? how do you sleep at night?

har de har har.
