look in the book.

A casual browse on the LOOKBOOK website is a part of my everyday web browsing. To be serious, though, I actually check the site about four or five times a day when I feel I need to take a break from any sort of mundane task I’m doing. Or to just take a break from work. Or, when I wake up in the morning.

It could happen at any point in the day, really.

However, today, I decided to share some of my favourite looks with you. I browsed through, probably, over one hundred looks – generally the newest and the ones with the most HYPE. These are some of my favourite shots – a job well done to every individual appearing in these photos. You have a great sense of style, and, one day, I hope to have enough cash flow that I too can afford to create a new outfit for every damn day of the year.

I’s a kid of the 90s, so, naturally, I gravitate toward anything acid wash, the same way I gravitate toward lumberjack-plaid. I also love that even though these cut-offs are so ridiculously short, they’re paired with a loose T and a great menswear blazer.


If I was thin enough to pull off great menswear like these following looks, I would. Most certainly, actually, because I love dropped-crotch trousers, a touch of floral, Burberry-chic, and olive green – one of the only colours I actually have in my wardrobe.


The lack of colour in my wardrobe being noted, if I DID do colour, this is how I would do it:


I do not like this dress. At all. In fact, I think it is downright horrible. However, I love this girl’s hair. What would you think if I went all short and uberblonde? Yes? No? Maybe so?


If I could date both of these men, at the same time, I totally would. Just sayin’.


These next four looks are just the epitome of the type of style I love. Not so fashion forward that you’ll walk through the streets of Hamilton and people along the sides of Jackson Square will be thinking, “what the hell”, but enough that I could walk through campus knowing that there is an end in sight to the terrible inclusion of TNA, lululemon, UGGS, and Abercrombie in the wardrobe of nearly every girl.


That’s all. I encourage you to check LOOKBOOK.nu as often as possible. Get inspired, or, inspire someone else.

Much love,
s.
