She also added to her growing tattoo collection with this new ink that says, “rebelle fleur” which roughly translates to rebel flower. What do you think about her new tat?

Why Did You Wear That: Ten Things I Hate About You(r Clothes)

By |August 8th, 2010|Why Did You Wear That?|
So, while perusing the internet, it occurred to me that people are making fashion faux pas and probably not even realizing it. These may just be minor things, but they are like nails on a chalkboard for me. They aren’t the obvious mistakes like VPL or wearing white after Labor Day. Here are ten mistakes you may be making without even realizing.

1. Heavy belts on light fabrics.Picture 1

2. Belts over shirts at hip level.18173203_111_a

3. Greys that don’t match.00370m

4. Matching your bag to your shoes (or vice versa).3614922884_7e9e7cbf31_o

5. Casual fabric at formal affairs.6222_1_493_p

6. Cuffed jeans.Picture 2

7. Sleeveless turtlenecks.6a00d8341c624253ef00e54f1eed948833-640wi

Why Did You Wear That: Put a Sock in It

By |August 4th, 2010|Why Did You Wear That?|

Considering this summer has been my coldest on record, I have decided to go ahead and embrace the fall fashions that are already in store windows. As you’re aware, I’m obsessed with boots and I have always loved legwear (perhaps it has to do with my own time spent in private school) whether it be cable knit tights, over the knee socks, or just some good ol’ fashion knee socks. That’s why I’m elated to see a the return of socks with a vengeance!

Chunky knit socks with boots is the first way that I’m loving legwear:

By |July 29th, 2010|Why Did You Wear That?|

I’m really feeling for shit kicking boots right now. Maybe it’s because I just saw a man flip out and throw something at a pizza place and feel the need to toughen up my look. Whatever the case may be, I love them paired with denim shorts and an oversized v-neck or a flirty floral dress. Here are some of my favorites:
