Rococo is the way to go

Yay for rhyming titles! Any way I have been neglecting this blog, not that anyone actually reads it at this point, and was trying to force some kind of inspiration. So I went to the place that always gives me inspiration. ROCOCO!

If i had enough hair I would wear it like this

Rococo is one of the best movements in art in my opinion. The colors are all pastel and girly, even men wear them. mixing silver and gold was big too. Complete and utter decadence was the order of the time! I need to build up a collection of clothing and jewelry inspired by this. If you have not seen the Marie Antoinette movie you should see it just for the beautiful colors and aesthetic.
