I have much bigger residences to focus on.  But seriously, isn’t this building INSANE?  It looks like they shipped it directly from Paris to Brookline:

The credo here at Boston Fashion File is not that we need to travel very far to find our fashion.  The fashion simply comes to us.

I’ve been reading lately about New York, Paris and Milan fashion week.  The beauty reports, the new stripes or dots that are in fashion this season.  Marc Jacobs used no makeup for his Spring 2015 runway show!!!  STOP THE PRESSES.

I know.  I was just as shocked as you.  Well, Boston Fashion File concerns itself with more local matters, so without any further jabbering, I’d like to present to you, my reading public Boston Fashion File, plumage edition.

Last Sunday I arose late from my bed.  It is a rare Sunday that I am not awakened by an alarm and don’t have some appointment to do something at 6am that doesn’t involve obstacles, skiing, jumping, insanity or eating.  But I arose late and was running late.  Would I make it for my appointment for the still not obvious to me plumage?

Well, I made it on time because the plumage, more specifically the attendee’s of this year Cambridge Carnival got the ball rolling late.  We’re on island time here.

Look away now if you don’t like birds.  Or more precisely, women wearing costumes of birds that are so large that they require wheels:

 

 

Last week I visited a very pleasant city on the shoreline of Massachusetts that features a very beautiful beach.  And absolutely no bathrooms of any kind.

So I spotted something called a Bath and Tennis club.  I saw the word “private” and I disregarded it.  Because I am that kind of person.  I walked into the back of the Bath and Tennis club and saw a very clean empty bathroom.  No one saw me, no one stopped me.  If I got caught, I would say “I left my membership card at home” and be done with it.  Well, surprisingly no one caught me.

And as is the usual style of this story, I got a photo to prove I was actually there:

Even the dogs:

Oh and by the way, this is my future:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When you are going down Fifth Avenue in a car in a rainstorm fiddling with the ISO on the camera, that’s when:

Me, I wake the fabulous:

No, says the woman.  You are just a seagull and I am a woman.  There will never be anything between us:

I have mentioned before on this blog that I am an educator of English as Second Language.  When I am not photographing feathered creatures, pretending I live in a castle, running in mud or doing any of the other crazy things that regularly appear up here.

As an educator, I am at the forefront of new trends in classroom design.  A technological classroom benefits the students and provides a stimulating environment for classroom learning in this digital age.

Now I’d like to make a suggestion for a new feature of 21st century classrooms.  A feature that will no doubt revolutionize classroom design in the coming years:

HA!!!  Like I’m going to be serious up in here?  No way.

Well, I am going to be half serious.  Why not have a classroom that features tentacles?

This classroom design is genius and again, as an educator, I recommend that it be implemented across the board.

I turned around and my young charges had disappeared.  I turned around and they had scrambled to the top of the highest hill around.  I can’t even fathom how they got there and how they had managed this so quickly.  And don’t they seem proud of themselves??:
