Bad Fashion = Good Fashion

Bah, okay I lied. I've been awful at posting, I'm sorry. The truth is is that I haven't gotten around to taking pictures of the stuff I bought in New York, so I've been avoiding my blog. Don't get your hopes up, I haven't snapped any pics yet, I'm just here to show you a bad fashion check list. I think a lot of it is valid and I see where it's a good guide for someone recovering from style disaster, like the women you see on TV getting make-overs (Thank-you What Not To Wear, you keep me entertained for hours). But the main problem I have with this check list is that almost every single one of these so-called faux pas's can be taken and turned around into a fashion statement. It's the simple principle of "Once you know the rules, you can break them" (same goes for writing, by the way). There are a few 'infractions' that really are inexcusable like camel toe, inappropriate bulges, and visible pantyline. Anyway, I think you should take a look at it, and do the checklist. Don't be worried if you have a couple checkmarks on there, in fact, give yourself a pat on the back. Go against the grain, man.
