London Dressing
Okay, I promised, here you go.
During my recent trip to London, while it was snowing here in Boston, Londoners were shedding their macs to enjoy the warm, sunny weather. Perhaps people were caught sartorially ill-prepared by this, because I have to say that, on the whole, I found the men in London to be far more stylish than the women. Frump much? And I thought Bostonians were bad. Nevertheless, a few noteworthy style trends emerged. I need to perfect my stealth street snap technique; unfortunately, I left with no photographic evidence. You’ll have to trust me. Continue Reading

CommentAn April Fool Misses the Lion of March
Last week I took the opportunity for an impromptu weekend away in London. Staying in Mayfair, as I did the last time I was there, I didn’t stray too far afield, but this time I saw much more of the city than before, courtesy of my hotel room! What a view! Continue Reading
Sarah Burton’s Brilliant Show
To say that I haven’t been paying much attention to Fashion Week and the Spring 2011 collections would be more than an understatement. My focus has been on trying to get a few choice pieces from the Fall 2010 collections into my closet and wishing for some true Fall weather in which to wear them, not what anyone might be wearing come Spring. However, when reports started to spread across the interwebs about Sarah Burton’s brilliant show for Alexander McQueen, I couldn’t help but pause, and gasp, and begin to dream. Continue Reading
Nihilism, Pessimism, Cynicism – oh my!
I love language. And when someone strings together a bunch of wonderful words in a clever way then I bow down in covetous worship. Even when it’s a movie review. Like this one in the New York Times from A.O. Scott: Continue Reading
At Paul Smith, London
I was checking out the Sartorialist this morning hoping to find some inspiration for transitional dressing and I came across his reportage from the Paul Smith show in London. I have to admit I haven’t been following much of the runway shows – the Spring collections don’t inspire me the way that Fall does. Anyway, these caught my eye. Continue Reading
London Photo Essay
Despite my intention to keep blogging from London, for a variety of reasons that never really happened, not the least of which was the lovely weather and everything to see and experience that was outside the club lounge where the computers were. So here are a few photos I snapped with my iPhone as I wandered around. No particular theme really, just images that caught my eye. Continue Reading
London Blogging
You have to read that to the tune of London Calling . . .
At the invitation of a dear friend, I am spending the weekend on an impromptu visit to London. Believe it or not, this is my first time here and I was excited at the prospect of a hop across the pond. I spent most of my day yesterday traveling and, with the time difference, by the time I arrived in London it was nearly nine. We had dinner at a wonderful little French restaurant around the corner from our hotel in Mayfair and then had a cocktail in the hotel lounge. My perfect Manhattan was just that – perfect.

My name is Angela Eloise and I am a freelance writer. I recently moved to Seattle because I wanted a better home base to support my creative goals. And my shaman told me to. Cloud of Chaos was born from my desire to dance with the absurdity of life, to create a space where I could write and share all of the gorgeous, fun, snarky deliciousness I find spinning around me every day. What does a spinning cloud of chaos have to do with writing? Everything, as it turns out.
