Dress for the way you feel.

When I collage, I look for bright colors, bold prints, textured fabrics, creatively framed portraits, and mixed print layers. This image is from an RVCA catalog and it caught my attention because of the decayed walls in the background, the bold and contrasting colors, and the confidence that the woman shows in a relaxed standing pose. I like to collect fabrics and images that I like, but I usually don’t get a sense of how they can coordinate together until I toss them in a pile and sort through them. 

I heard recently someone say “Dress for the way you want to feel” and I think about that beyond artmaking to every time I put together my own outfits for the day. It’s not about dressing for success or the job you want. Your job will stay your job. Dress for the way you want to feel.

Disclaimer

Sometimes going into work short on time, I stop into a CVS for a quick morning snack. There are three aisles where the granola bars are shelved, and the type and brand vary every time I walk in there. I have a nut allergy, so I take a minute to examine the nutrition label before selecting one to purchase. I know Cliff Bars are a reliable brand. I know what type doesn’t contain nuts, like “Chocolate Chip,” “Mint Chocolate Chip,” or “Chocolate Coconut Chip.” I’m not sure how healthy these really are for me, but I only need something to start my day. Every product will say something like this ALLERGY STATEMENT: CONTAINS [ALLERGEN]. MAY CONTAIN TRACES OF MILK, WHEAT, AND TREE NUTS.”

For my own personal allergy, I’ve come to learn that “may contain” is a legal disclaimer. The allergy statement will state exactly what it contains and that’s all I need to know. I can read the full list of ingredients too. If I find a bar that doesn’t contain my allergen, they are additionally informing me that they assume no liability for what I eat. So what? I’ve found this “may contain” on every food product. What does “may contain” contain?

When you start writing, it is common to feel unnerved by hearing the persistence of the question What are you writing? The question may appear more often cynically from your own apprehension. What would you call this?

I have come to learn that there is only one time when you can define your writing and that is when you have finished writing. Until then, it can feel paralyzing. Sometimes it helps to have a disclaimer.

“This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places, and incidents either are the products of the author’s imagination or are used fictiously, and any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, businesses, companies, events, or locales is entirely coincidental.”

I take the first bite of my Cliff Bar. Chocolate chip, without allergens. Later that night I indulged in my mom’s holiday sugar cookies (pictured) that arrived in the mail and sit down to write.

After the disclaimer, the writer is free to write.
