J. Crew

The pattern on the inside of my brain

About 90% of the shirts I own are striped in one way or another, a fact that Cami likes to point out in a sometimes mocking tone as if to say, “Can’t you express your crazy in a more flamboyant way?”

Actually, isn’t that the perfect way? It’s OCD and obsession and fixation all wrapped up in a very graphic presentation. Do not try to control my crazy, okay?

So this collection of inspiration here, this one is for those of us who like things a certain way, and please. Stop. Do not move that salt shaker. It’s facing north for a reason.
