Animalistic Females

With the coming of Fall this next season, I am beginning to wonder...

Has female sexuality turned animalistic? In a time where it's okay to wear leopard print and maybe some feathers in your hair and no longer be considered tacky, has it actually become normal to wear animal-like wear? I have seen my fair share of celebrities wearing bunny and mouse ears lately. The Avant-Garde look of having antlers has made a long run in the stockings of photo shoots recently. Is getting back to the primal instincts making these women stronger or is acting like an untamed woman only for the strong?

Miley Cyrus, the former Hannah Montana, has recently come out with a very artistic music video, which I am completely addicted to and not afraid to say so, called "Can't be Tamed". In the video, the gorgeous bird, that is Cyrus, is in captivity wearing massive dark wings and a tight, black, spandex leotard looking outright beautiful. Also, I'd like to mention the perfect peacock dress, that may be one of the most gorgeous dresses The Blonds have ever created and is made from 2400 tiny metal pieces along with very large feathers, cost just over $25,000! Watch the video below.



Shakira, the past "Whenever, Wherever" girl, has come out with a song this past year called "She Wolf". The song claims that all women have a wolf in the closet and this wolf comes out when the woman wishes to the most powerful that she can be. Shakira would like the shewolf to "come out and breathe". Does this mean that wearing animalistic clothing just increases the animal inside the woman?

The girls in the Chanel 2010 RTW line are completely decked out in fur, below.


Rihanna's Elle cover shoot just reeks of animal tendancies, below.


So this fall, when we see more girls wearing those ridiculous fur go go raver boots, it won't be that peculiar. When we see the leopard print dresses hanging off of the shoulders of every woman in the city, we won't be so surprised.

Wear your animalistic wear and be as powerful as the animal inside you!

X, Y, Zoo time

If you live in the city and need a cheap date or an inexpensive day out then you should visit the zoo! My boyfriend and I went to the San Francisco Zoo yesterday, and it has tons of interesting animals and wild life. Many peacocks, as well, just wander around the area since it's too hard to keep them all in a cage. I must have seen around 4 different ones while we were there.

Surprisingly, very little people were at the zoo, so many animals weren't shy when we came up to look at them. Try and go on a day when busloads of children aren't pulling up, so the animals won't be so scared to come closer.


My favorite animal was the polar bear.


The San Francisco Zoo is only $12 a day for San Francisco residents, or $15 if not.

View their website here.

I just need to say, I withheld myself making a "Where the Wild Things are" comment the entire time.
