My name is Elaine. I’m not going to pretend to be the first one to do anything- because I’m not that good of a liar. The most important thing one can ever know about me, is that I have nothing that important. I have an affinity for international films, glass galleries, and closing doors. I also have an ongoing co-dependency issue with tall, lanky, emotionally unavailable fictional characters. My best jokes come from early Sunday mornings, late Saturday nights, and unintentional double entendres. I don’t make it that way, I certainly can’t change it, however- the question is, are you reading enough comics? I have the occasional good day, though most of my days are littered with bitter remarks, cynical thoughts and of course in respect to the other two, beautiful strangers. I am in between being a writer, psychologist, criminologist, and perpetually failed anthropologist. And eventually, I’ll take you down the only road I’ve ever been down. ———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— Tumblr (3.0; @plainveins)http://plainveins.tumblr.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/83a5cd9f238b29e1e65b3f135e91e5e6/tumblr_mli7h3CW9g1qgnhx0o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><blockquote> <p><em>Johanna Stickland</em><span> at </span><em>John Galliano</em><span> Spring 2007</span></p> </blockquote>http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51223274160http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51223274160Fri, 24 May 2013 23:34:32 +1000<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/1458c51eba1ce9df3530eeb079ea3289/tumblr_mn5bu1r9lh1ropwwwo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://lu-moss.tumblr.com/post/50983018682/julia-nobis-by-collier-schorr-for-i-d" target="_blank">lu-moss</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Julia Nobis by Collier Schorr for i-D magazine</p> </blockquote>http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51144794754http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51144794754Thu, 23 May 2013 22:46:45 +1000Such a natural incongruence, you would think two carbon slates of jagged rock might collide to      ...http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51140562754http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51140562754Thu, 23 May 2013 20:42:00 +1000Thoughts<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/e08e5615f347321b80b862d04148d40f/tumblr_mn6xw0by3O1qch5uco1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Dior Fall/Winter 2010 campaign</p>http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51139614727http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51139614727Thu, 23 May 2013 20:09:00 +1000<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/b61cab6ea10610adfe0500c10b1df941/tumblr_mn6d56rXFL1qia1o1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://vergen.tumblr.com/post/51031979064/jessica-chastain" target="_blank">vergen</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>jessica chastain</p> </blockquote>http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51072191218http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51072191218Thu, 23 May 2013 01:01:23 +1000<iframe class="tumblr_audio_player tumblr_audio_player_51058166557" src="http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51058166557/audio_player_iframe/plainveins/tumblr_miwb5tUeLZ1qdulys?audio_file=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tumblr.com%2Faudio_file%2Fplainveins%2F51058166557%2Ftumblr_miwb5tUeLZ1qdulys" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" width="500" height="169"></iframe><br/><br/><p><span>Diálogo | Antonio Carlos Jobim </span></p>http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51058166557http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51058166557Wed, 22 May 2013 18:23:16 +1000SoundsNot listening to anything else but Antonio Carlos Jobim tonight<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/c09a3ddccbdd755e0425620f4ec178dc/tumblr_mn3fmyMZ8U1qdu4c7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://tat-art.tumblr.com/post/50899409327/dioralop-aw-13-14" target="_blank">tat-art</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><span>DIORALOP AW 13/14</span></p> </blockquote>http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51058128935http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51058128935Wed, 22 May 2013 18:21:58 +1000<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/16070a9285cf394767f4af011bf06106/tumblr_ml6qm0xzLv1ro90kmo1_r7_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Maison Martin Margiela<br/><a href="http://www.interviewmagazine.com/fashion/maison-martin-margiela" target="_blank">Interview Magazine, September 2008</a></p> <blockquote> <p><em>“Martin Margiela decided not to appear in the public eye. He wants the light not to be on him but on what really matters — the clothes, the philosophy, the Maison, the team. And now it’s become the landmark of the Maison. But what some consider a marketing strategy and a sort of snobbism is more like a sacrifice: He could have all eyes on him, and the glory and the fame. But instead he decided to step away, to let the garments and the Maison speak for him, for his love of what he does, and for the respect he has for his team. If people are touched and like to wear what we propose, then they are free to buy and wear it. What Martin Margiela looks like has, for us, little or nothing to do with this process. We prefer that people react to a garment through their taste and own personal style and not their impression of the individual or group who created it, as translated and hyped by the press. Unlike actors or singers, we do not need his physical form to express our work. The Maison Martin Margiela should exist independently of who he is, what he looks like, and any answer he, as an individual and member of a team, may have to any question not directly linked to the clothes.” - The Maison</em></p> </blockquote>http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51058014268http://plainveins.tumblr.com/post/51058014268Wed, 22 May 2013 18:17:43 +1000Quality“Reduce cellulite.
