Tavi is my life.
So there’s this 12 year old girl who I assume lives in Chicago (thank johnnnny) or some metropolitan area and is the face of serious change. She was born in 1996, think about that! She has grown up with the internet, cell phones, hd, xm, you name it. She probably was fluent at basic html,css and photoshop by the time she was 9 and her blog – Style Rookie is the product of this amazingness.
She is so witty and intelligent i’ve spent the last 90 minutes thinking about it, this is what the future looks like. She probably has some graphic design momma and architect dad and their dislike for comic sans and crappy furniture has manifested into a love for fashion in her. It’s really pretty incredible; she is the first byproduct of a generation who’s intellect, taste, and “swagger” were directly shaped by the internet and age of communication. Awesome.
Tavi did the video below after rushing into H+M trying to get the collection by Rei Kawakubo (Comme Des Garcon). So ill.
Edit: I got bored and tried to cut up these vocals and throw em on a beat, my gift to little miss Tavi for killing it on the internet lol.
