I'm not asking you to change your icon. Just saying you relate to frightening images. I still think it's funny how you tend to 'relate' to lighter-haired icons, and I tend to 'relate' to brunettes, though.

Well, in a very literal way, it's something I'd actually do. I have boots like that. I like wearing them with skirts. And I love trekking around natural places and pausing in front of bodies of water. Relatedly, I like the imagery of black boots with the more feminine skirt. Here especially, it seems childlike, and my associations with children (or at least myself as a child) are all like untamed, unprofessionalized, full of play and spirit and imagination. But at the same time, she's got boots to get her through the grass and mud, and to kick shit with, and to generally be not a dainty, indoor, doll-like girl.
