Ok, so Delia*s may not seem like the best place to find some threads once you’re out of high school, but if you look in the right places, it’s a wardrobe gold mine. They have some great basics, even better accessories, and a lot of their stuff is trendy on the cheap (especially if you check out their seasonal clearance/sale). There really is a lot to choose from, but here are some of my absolute faves, all for under $20! Read More »

[Do you ever feel like you can’t pull something off? Have trendy pieces in your closet that you would never have the courage to actually wear out? Well take those pieces out, shake off the dust, and continue reading!

Um. It looks like my grandpa started designing clothes!
Or maybe not. Even he doesn’t wear his pants this high. What were the people at Society for Rational Dress thinking?
Their designs are typically chic, simple and beautiful. But these? These “pants” are pleading for a camel toe. And a nursing home.
And where exactly does the zipper start? What does one wear with a pair of pants that belts at the breasts? Does this look come in capris?
I know that we are trying to move away from the low rise fad that leaves cracks exposed and the infamous muffin top, but this is taking things a bit too far, no?
