Fashion Fabulousness




I believe in simplicity, timeless elegance, and the perfection of imperfection. My definition of beauty, when it comes to the fashion world, is something between extremely ugly and extremely fantastic!

Practically necessary

My grandma's old sweatshirt I found in the back of her closet.
Whenever I walk into a vintage clothing store or a thrift store, I wonder why we ever buy brand new clothes. I think it's better to wear something that is not as recognizable as Prada. Vintage is timeless. Timelessness is important to me. I personally think it is better to be old-fashioned and right than to be up to date and wrong. But when it comes down to it, I base my fashion taste on what doesn't itch.
