Eyes glued to the
Backs of
Hidden universes,
Dredged of
Understanding.
The limitless gaze,
A leg lamp turned on,
Dusky shadows
Sweeping the room
Overhead
The car lights
Chasing nighttime
Cosmos escapades…

Propane anger,
Diamonds on a
Furious turn.
Night mists
Fluctuating,
Split nerves
Multiplying
Along glittering
Streets.
Rebel roses,
Grave shadows
Overturned
To shifting
Movie frames.
Pieces of the
Dream land
Undone,
Swallowed
By poisonous
Fumes beckoning
The seekers
To entangle with.
Does history seem to repeat itself every two or several decades? The 50s rebels had the greaser thing going on with their leather jackets, jeans, and t-shirts James Dean style. The 70s punk fashion came packaged with something similar: leather jackets, jeans, tees, and rock patches/pins on the jackets by way of the Sex Pistols and Ramones. I’ve had a fascination with “rebel” fashion since a young age, wearing custom-made patchwork pants and dresses to high school bohemian style. Nowadays, I wear light wash ripped jeans, a leather jacket with a pop of color, and pearl adorned sneakers with faux diamond rings, hoop earrings, and cat eye shades for a statement. The glamorous rebel look is my thing, where diamonds meet dirt, gutter to the stars. My love of glamorous movie icons like Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn meet rebel heroes like Sid Vicious or Marlon Brando in a Hollywood back alley. The dust kicked up by non-conformist attitudes marries with a love of flaunting beauty and bejeweled spectacle. Happy almost-weekend!
Tricking the pages,
Appearing in perfumed fantasies.
Crystal glass,
Moments preparing the
Skin,
Budded enchantment.
Adornment, the backwards effect
Of feeling,
Plummeting to dark waters,
The absent orator.
Hers the glance to
Eternity,
His the momentary realization of
Taste.
Piece of prism love,
Fractured steps of
A cool undulation,
Soft marabou slippers
Sliding across the living room
Rug…
Diamond reverie,
Candy body topped to be savored,
Sugar lips reciting the night’s revelation…
Smoky jazz,
Wrapped to the jams,
Carried under a satin layer.
Spat way up high,
Roused in music
Trailing past itself,
The oncoming quiet…
My boyfriend bought some Argan Oil from Trader Joe’s a little while back for his skin and hair. According to health sources online, Argan oil has anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties. It can lessen signs of aging and moisturize skin and hair.
For skin, it is recommended for people to use a small amount so there is no negative effect and the same goes for hair so the hair doesn’t get too oily.
Go to your nearest Trader Joe’s and give this beneficial oil a try. It only costs $7. Set aside some time for a little self-care each day!
My partner and I had discovered a site called Zazzle several months back where you can customize your own clothes, gifts, home decor items, etc.. and buy other designer’s creative merchandise. The Zazzle vision is “Our mission is to make “The Make Engine” to give people the power to make anything imaginable.” Their manufacturing processes are top-notch for bringing unique works to life.
Dez Del Rio’s page Ultra is a “Rock and Rock Story” in the making with cool Zodiac sneakers, rock shirt, and skate gear “because life is extreme.” Check it out here:
My Zazzle store Rock N Royal is also on Zazzle, with glam and cool rocker apparel, home items, and diamond sneakers. I want people to feel like they can be rockstars “because your life rules.”
Happy Weekend!
Here’s to looking back at 2011, when I wrote for a lifestyle/beauty/fashion blog called Lip Gloss Culture based out of NYC. I had just graduated from Mills College and it was a great first gig. My Mom Susan Karr, an accomplished writer and editor (Word Suite), showed me the magical Wayback Machine site where I could find prior articles I’d had published. Here are some beauty posts:

Happy Thursday!
Face of blue,
Coarse thorn
Behind.
Lonely
Nothing,
Dripped to
Depression.
Mean world
Chugging along,
Pretty things
Torn away.
Smoked up
In folly,
Fool’s mirror
To show
A vampire’s
Face.
Tracked down
And split,
Sod covered
Over
Wooden
Death
Embankment.
Carried along
To
Blackened
Bliss,
Moon shine
A reflector
Upon
What love
Had lain
Down.
It was a nice night to walk around Upper Haight Street with my boyfriend and neighbor Stina on Halloween. The vampire look really came together. We took lots of photos. Here are some:
Enjoy your weekend!
