Remember the rule about stripes and plaid, and shapes and patterns? We'll they've booth been abolished and juxtaposition has taken a stand.
Remember when you would see a teenage boy sauntering down the hallway in ups and downs, lefts and rights and your eyes would cross. Now, only several years later, fashion designers have taking said boys ideas and run with it! Take Vivienne Westwood for example - we don't ever know what direction she's heading in ; all we know is that we're coming!
Forever have we been scrutinizing and upholding "fashion laws" but as the street style, blogger, vlogger, and the sartorial world have grown, their ideas of regulations has been stricken from the records and "fend for yourself" fashion has taken over.
With swinging colors, fashion masquerades and daunting details, we've begun to realize that with style, restrictions are like Tom Hanks; "Cast Away" but this time, there is no saving us!
So enjoy the scary ride of fashion. Feel what you're meant to feel and for pete sake - wear stripes and plaid!
As you can probably tell I love handbags, and not just handbags but accessories. My closet is full of vintage pendents and frilly necklaces and a vast selection of clutches and purses. My favourite thing about nick knacks is they can help give volume and class to your ensemble and make you look less bland. Many of us, myself included, get a little cowardly when it comes to trinkets, we seem to stick with the mainstream look, the simple silver necklace of the gold bangles but we never really venture outside of our comfort zone and that's such a shame. Same thing goes for bags and hand candy, we never seem to go for the loud and proud it always has to match. The one thing that is fantastic about fashion and couture is that it never has to match, it just has to complete. Sometimes the best accessories are the ones that are just a little awkward, it gives people an excuse to stop a stare.
My name is Erica, I've been blogging for several years now. I enjoy mens fashion, women's couture and LA street style.
I began this blog in hopes of showing off my own style as well as helping others with ideas and inspiring all to dress better.
Thank you Toronto for being a great place to investigate fun fashions, create a fantastic wardrobe and for having people who enjoy taking street style photos.
