At JFK airport in New York City there's an Air train that runs from the terminals to the city's subway system. It's a needlessly complex way to get around the city, but the subway system came before the airport so they didn't run a train line all the way to the terminals. The only redeeming feature of this short, $5 ride is the last stop before getting to Jamaica station. Lining the ground near the tracks are single flip-flops that people have lost while making a mad dash to get on or off the train. The tracks are sealed off from the station by sliding glass doors, so when you lose a flip-flop there's no retrieving it. Whenever I got to that station (While visiting a friend there recently), I always hoped to see someone standing there with only one sandal, rifling through their luggage looking for a pair of shoes or accepting their fate and walking off the subway with one bare foot.
As we make this transition from Summer to Fall fashion at Long Tall Sally, try not to lose your flip flops along the way! Oh yes, we will be running to catch all of their incredible brand new collection which is very cool- And finally 2 choices of leather jackets - SCORE!! This is clothing that we don't need to fuss with just live easy in.
You might also see aerodynamic balances, geometrical shapes, interesting surfaces and unexpected textures that are emphasized in their big, bold and very black designs. Some pieces are androgynous, like the 'boyfriend jacket' and the new leather jackets like the new “Tracy” style which I've just ordered! The stark colour palette Long Tall Sally is offering also permits an abundance of creative mixing and matching to make a wardrobe stretch to its limits.
Minimalists, the tall gorgeous ones of course, ignore obvious trends instead marching to our own loud and dramatic beat! Walk tall and proud babes!
