What is TooMuchPatentLeather?

My name is Alex and this blog is more of a diary or mood board, expressing my own original thoughts about fashion, beauty, art and what exactly is too much. The title of this blog is like my personal style in that it is ironic- there can never be too much patent leather. Fashion is more than self expression or art, it is a form of communication and this page will be committed to communicating both simple and elaborate conceptual ideas and also opinions. Whenever I place pictures of myself I am not using professional photography tools. I do not own or claim property on any images. Feel free to leave a comment expressing your own opinions and constructive criticism. Thanks for reading!

Selina Not Cat

Selina Kyle, the woman behind Catwoman, is a character full of contradictions which fed into her increased confusion over self-identity. What I love about Selina Kyle is her ability to maintain a precarious balance of innocence and a sense of corruption. Selina is both troubled, and free of care. She also reveals a sexiness in a leather bodysuit, and yet wears a button up brown 40s suit. I absolutely love the winter jackets she sports throughout the movie. Behind the structured suit, is an unraveling fragile and dangerous soul. The black sequin dress is to die for. Literally.
