Sweet Jose Chung, Scully, are you going on a fox hunt? Is this the result of some incredible misunderstanding after a confession to your personal shopper about how you have to keep chasing stupid Fox all over the country? My favorite part about this look is the expression on Scully’s face, like she’s wondering how what she thought was going to be a fun camping trip has gone so far awry, or how an outfit can seem to fit so nicely but still be so massively bizarre.
i don’t understand why these aren’t on my feet right now.
seriously does anyone know anything about this picture or these shoes and how i can have them

Oh no, Rodarte. Tell me you didn’t put Aboriginal dot paintings on your ready-to-wear fashion… The worst thing is that, unlike the (rightful) fuss kicked up over appropriation of Native American culture, nobody seems to care enough about this to even raise a peep. This is truly shameful, guys.
“Art is one of the key rituals of Aboriginal culture and was and still is, used to mark territory, record history, and tell stories about the dreamtime. But its importance to traditional Indigenous life is difficult for non-Indigenous people to understand. To quote Morphy (1991):
“Art was, and is, a central component of the traditional Yolngu way of life, of significance in the political domain, in the relationships between clans, and in the relations between men and women. Art was and remains an important component of the system of restricted knowledge, and at a more metaphysical level is the major means of recreating ancestral events, ensuring continuity with the ancestral past, and communicating with the spirit world.”

“Doesn’t matter what sort of painting we do in this country, it still belongs to the people, all the people. This is worship, work, culture. It’s all Dreaming. The Dreaming is all over Australia. We must teach the whitefellas.”
- Wenten Rubuntja, Aboriginal Australian landscape painter

I tumble a lot about archery, SFF, and racism. I am a lefthanded archer, because we are the best.
