First off thanks to glamour girly for making me her blog of the week!
*Rolls out a piece of paper* "I'd like to thank my boyfriend for buying me this domian and the acadamy of fashion blogs, mum...dad..." *tears*
Onwards! I've noticed quite a bit of discussion regarding the the Prada turban and Arafat scarfs and I thought I would give my input.
With stores like H & M & Top Shop are trying to make the Turban mainstream my personal stance is that I would never wear one, I would feel like I'm offending people from Hindu and Islamic decent that use this as a religious tradition. I do however think it's fine for it to appear on runways as a one off, but I hope I don't start finding people walking down the street wearing pearly bright orange or pink ones. Remember this is my own opinion.
I love the look of an Arafat scarf, but I still don't think I could bring myself to wear it, much like the Prada turban I feel that it is a sensitive issue, and apparently so does UrbanOutfitters because they pulled them off their shelves once they realized what a hot controversial issue it was. Wearing them is suppose to make a strong political statement that people are not aware of, I don't know much about this to get into a debate so I will just leave it at that.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I thought you guys might enjoy this, they are a indie girl group hailing from California called 'The like'. I don't know much about their music, but what I do know is that they have a great sense of style!
I'm obsessed with the girl on the Lefts multi colored dress!
I had a grey and white shirt like the girl on the right, but it doesn't fit me anymore!
High waisted shorts, a must for the North American summer season.
Mahalo fashion,
