End Notes:

I have our color wheel to thank for today’s outfit, an example of the two-thirds color scheme. I’ve never paired this blue-violet patterned top with this yellow-green color before, I love how it freshens the whole look. And I’ll need to be fresh since we’re talking through Julia Kristeva’s decidedly dry theory of the semiotic and symbolic in class today.

    So I’ve been following your blog for a little while now, and I have to ask- what does remixed mean? It’s stumped me time and time again! Thanks.

    C, “remixed” is something we picked up from the wardrobe_remix community over on Flickr. It just means that we’ve worn and photographed that item of clothing before in the pool. It’s a quick way to keep track of how we’ve used the same piece in different ways!
