i am
tickled to define these ideas .
Blazer Graphic Tee
. love the look of a tee under a blazer .
graphic tees under a blazer bug me because i can't view the graphics, which in itself is a cool experience because it evoked my curiosity .
which led me to ponder—and delightfully imagine—designing and experiencing people wearing legible graphic tees designed to pair with a blazer;
moreover
Frame Lapels
blazers
with lapels
that actually look like gilded
picture frames
or textured and or quilted
or puffed up, plush, to hint, or expand upon
... or perhaps literally
as a wood carved
lapel
frame .
how wonderfully silly
.
My first imagining is for simple words written vertically:
J L g (important messages - quick reads)

would be cool to have a signature, long, happy face that fit in that frame/window ...
love the sensation of the flow of ideas parading through me ...
which brings me to my current(3) favorite

*when the blazer frame is moved aside, perhaps to fetch a bit from a pocket, the wearer gets to see the tag line—i don't know how to here and aren't going to spend the time now to discover—reads upside down . or as Goose would say "inverted."
an intimate reminder . an awareness tool .
i wrote it backwards, because it current(3)ly is possible ;D
and it looks really weird!
thus evoking aforementioned
curiosity .
mmm
which reinvigorates an idea i've had for a reversible Shirt of Opposition a fun awareness tool to play with—because IT IS possible—as in we have the power and ability to choose our current thoughts ... and also in this case how we want to wear our shirt, what we want our shirt to say ... can have a lot of fun with this tool .
the first one i would print would be:
i
k
n
o
w
thus the reverse would read:
i
don't
k now
(you get the idea of horizontal layout)
. loving the sensations of both of these (it wasn't always so) and i love the idea of being able, and actually choosing, to physically shift them around throughout the day ... I'd stick with the inverted tagline too, it's cool and use-full .
