It's Called Winter....

Please examine this picture carefully...

Every other Thursday night I attend missional arts. This week was no exception. I arrived a little earlier than normal not expecting or anticipating much. I walked out of the bathroom and ran into my best friend and former roommate Lauren (far left). We have this horrible unconscious habit of always being vaguely in the same vain when we get dressed. It could be similar colors, silhouettes, and sometimes the exact same thing! Lauren looked at me and started with, "we're kind of wearing the exact....NO we are wearing the exact same thing!" We haven't lived together for over 6 months, and the last time we saw each other was over Christmas three weeks ago in Texas. Everything was the same, even down to our nail polish. Our poison for the night was a white t-shirt+black skirt+grey cardigan.

About two minutes into the night we realized that not only did we match each other, but our friends Nate and Mike (L-R) were matching each other, and full circle, the four of us coordinated. New York in the winter depletes the city of all color. After a weekend of birthday celebrations, brunches, and shopping sprees I noticed that the neutral palette has infiltrated among all our friends/city.

So this is winter!.... layers upon layers of neutral components... and possibly a great study for exactitudes (an interesting study you should check out)!
