For Real...

"I can't smile
Can't sleep like a child
Can't feel safe in this wide world without you
I can't go
Can't disturb this flow
Can't begin to know what I would do
I can't see
Can't find strength to be
Rather not be me without you
I can't deal
I can't even feel
Without you: I'm not real...
I can live
I can love
I can be better with you
For real..."

                      

Don't you just LOVE that feeling you get when you fall instantly in lust with a new piece? That's precisely what happened for me in regards to this haori by Tomo Wachter. A haori is a garment traditionally worn to protect a kimono, and I've worn them as jackets pretty much all of my life. My Mom would always bring back haori's, kimono's, and happy coats when she'd travel to Asia, and I have an affinity for them all. This particular one is impecabbly constructed, beautifully textured, REALISTIC PERFECTION; and I knew I had to have it the moment it rezzed. It's available in 3 other prints, but this muted shade really was the standout for me. Tomoto is full of Asian-inspired garments, and is definitely worth the teleport if you dig killer multi-cultural pieces as much as I do. This is one of those looks that really feels like me; elements of TRADITIONAL fused with a few items a little less mainstream...
