Convention(al) Wisdom
by darkspilver inconventions satisfy a basic human urge: the longing for belonging.. at conventions, people who share similar interests - even obsessions - come together to bond and to be themselves.. the outside world doesn't matter.
in fact, for the weekend duration of most conventions, the outside world doesn't even exist.. the conventioneers have each other and that's all they need.. http://conventionalwisdom.com.

Kelsey Lu - 'spin around' dresses at the KH
by darkspilver inkelsey lu: "i was very particular about what kind of dresses i would wear and want.
they had to be what i call 'spin around' dresses, and if i spun around and they made that wave, then it was a go.
