Rodarte Crush


Just read an interview with Kate and Laura Mulleavy of Rodarte. My crush on them commences (again) thanks in part to this part of the interview:

I read somewhere that you funded your first collection by selling Kate’s vinyl collection to Amoeba Records. Are there any records you regret giving up?

KM: Oh, man. I can’t even talk about this.

LM: I had to sell the records. Boxes and boxes, I made so many trips out of that Amoeba basement in Hollywood. And the guy there seriously could not believe that the collection belonged to a girl.

KM: Which is really infuriating.

LM: Like in college, the way guys would be weirded out if you had a lot of different kinds of books, as though having varied taste is a gender-specific thing.

KM: I’m getting mad about this all over again.
