it's nice if the shoe shows, just half to one inch, otherwise you look like the footless wonder.

I'm a huge fan, I think it's stylish and very attractive- either preppy with mocs/boat shoes or hipster with an oversize tee and bike sneakers. Also agree with the Wesley comments, I thought he was adorable.

i'm dreaming of more closet space, let alone TWO shelves just for shoes. my shoes are relegated to the closet floor to leave shelf space for all my sweaters.

if you've got the boyish body, it works- maybe with a bodysuit or slim button-up... always tucked in!

Entry: Would You Wear A Knock-Off?

As an environmentally conscious fashion designer on a student budget, the concept of the f21 fast fashion knockoff is tempting but unappealing in the end. There's so much more to be considered than the look of a garment; sure, a dress might be cute and inexpensive but its creation represents all that I dislike about the industry. There's the toll on the environment from global production and the huge amount of clothing that's thrown away because of cheap construction or materials.
I'm not coming down on everyone who buys from mass manufacturers; it's completely understandable. I've just made a personal choice to invest in a few pieces and buy the rest secondhand. I love the history behind thrifted and vintage clothing and love that (to a certain extent) I'm not wearing watered down versions of whatever designers are doing each season.

I look best in warm colors because of my hazel eyes and red brown hair but honestly wear whatever color attracts me at the moment. I'm really into deep teal, eggplant, charcoal, and orange red at the moment. Pink is the one color I don't wear, unless it's a peachy shade, and black is always a staple.

loved last season, hate this season- he does dark/dirty/boyish sexy better than anyone, why go so pastel and boring?!
