That's what passes for Fashion, folks! Clothes don't have to last. They are out of fashion and are thrown away. I can't believe what my Sister in Law and my Niece spend on "fashion"- at outlets, no less. The quality is so poor plus, in my opinion, they look like they work the street for a living wearing these clothes ! And they pass remarks about MY clothes.
We all went to London and Paris this past August. My 21 year old niece had nasty words for people who stared at her. Well...when you are in Fashion Meccas like these, and no one else is wearing anything remotely like you are-????? And, your male friend has tattoos from wrist to shoulder on one arm only...Hmmmm
I say this sitting here wearing my sweats. In Europe, I wore shorts and t-shirts. No fashion model am I !!! But then, I don't try to be one.
