I believe I may have gotten my first angry response to a Looks Like Beirut post. In February, I wrote about a post by Lizzie McCarthy and how to un-Beirut your bedroom closet. I never sent Lizzie an actual certificate because I couldn’t locate any physical address however I did receive this email from her:
Point taken and post removed. Thanks for the totally damning praise of my little blog. Have a good day.
Her original post is gone – which was never my intention – but I have no control over people’s actions. Was I harsh? Not really. I was trying to make a point as was she but to self-censor is a little too much.
In any case, I can chalk up one more on the Looks Like Beirut No More list.
Haven’t read her original post but if it is about having a messy closet then comparing it to beirut would actually be quite accurate. It does tend to be very chaotic. Nowhere is the traffic worse. Not to say that we don’t love it for what it is, of course.
