Although ideally the fabric covering our bodies creates a cohesive statement with the material encasing our feet, it’s rare that the two elements share space. Did…

Take a Look: Seamly.co
They say romance is dead. Articles pop up relentlessly on the world wide web lamenting that social media (I’m looking at you, Tinder) has squashed our ability to have healthy, committed relationships.

Abercrombie & Fitch: Remixed

Introducing: The Sartorial Mullet
We all know how the saying goes. Business up front…what in the back? Well, in this case we have a top almost completely unbuttoned, revealing an amount of skin that would most likely leave it’s original owner in a state of shock and horror. I somehow doubt that “party” was a term frequently used by…

Trend hate: A personal struggle.
The first time I saw this ruffled contraption of a blouse, I wrote it off as ridiculous and kept on browsing. Fast forward a few days. I’ve returned the very same thrift shop and, lo and behold, there it is! The perfect piece if Prince were to take up fencing! As I laugh and start…
