Pioneers of Fashion
Post-it notes are one of my favourite accessories. They're so versatile! Nowadays they come in all sorts of colours - here I've chosen peach and a pale glans - although the classic canary Post-it is a staple of mine. (Not literally! I am allergic to staples.)
I'm not all about Post-its, though. Strips of Sellotape on the clothes or skin can be a subtle way to highlight your best features - I sometimes use them to pick out a brooch or encircle my mouth. Or you can really 'tape out' and wrap yourself up in a big sticky chrysalid! Moving and breathing can be a challenge, but it's worth making the effort for that special party.
Did you know that Tipp-Ex is perfectly safe to use as mascara? Well, I think it is!
But the great thing about Post-its is you can write on them. (With a pen! I use a Sharpie.) I write all sorts of crazy stuff, like 'Set squares aren't square!' or 'What are clothes?' They make people think and/or smile.
I'm making myself a full set of chainmail out of different coloured paper clips. Or I will do when I have saved up for enough paper clips. I have 133 paper clips so far. In two different colours. Phew!
Some people say my sense of style is unusual. I tell them, 'Haven't you heard of stationery chic?' They seldom have, but that's what comes of living so close to the Arctic Circle.
