Hi Edan! I have purchased so much clothing over the pandemic and I am so excited to start dressing my body again. My teenager, Harper, and I have been busy in the thrift shops. She is all vintage all the time. It's such a trip to see her reliving my own teenage years. But, these trips have reborn in me my own fashion sense, which was way on the back burner for quite a while. My husband actually just asked me when I decided to look so cool again. It felt nice:) So you are not alone. I read somewhere the the fashion of the Roaring 20s was due in large part to the Flu of 1918. I don't doubt it. So here's to our own Roaring 20s! Let's enjoy it while it lasts.

A book I love on clothes/fashion/women's bodies is Women in Clothes by Sheila Heti & a host of other contributors. Insightful, funny & poignant! When I think about my own fashion choices, I sometimes think of that Supreme Court case on obscenity laws, where one of the justices said "I know it when I see it." That's how I think of my style, which eludes categorization. I can't really describe it in a coherent way but I can quickly identify things that fit my general vibe when I spot them.
