I'm a Trend Setter

Perusing LookBook the other day, I discovered that I am, in fact, a trend setter.



When I was 12, (and I have photographs to prove this) I tended to have a bit of a... 'style of my own' shall we say, this was before I conformed to the classic black NZ uniform (as Jacqui talks about over at Hazelnuts). I thrashed the 'denim shorts over tights' look so hard that everyone else in my class at school knew to just 'not go there' as I had that look done and dusted. You know? I topped it off with oversized fleece sweatshirts that I made myself.

So imagine how amazed I was to see that this look has finally caught on around the world! Even if it has taken 14 years to show itself again... hehe
