'Crazy Old bag lady!'

'Ha, she looks like a crazy old bag lady' whispered a passer-by as I shot this look. Funnily enough, the  'crazy bag lady' comment didn't offend me, it was more the 'old' part. I thought I looked my age (23), so that comment cut to the bone. I have to say; when my outfit 'offends' a passer-by so much that they feel they have to comment, I feel I have achieved something. The achievement... not looking like a clone or a sheep. If your a lover of fashion, like myself, you may have experienced the the odd jibe, remark or even funny look when you don't blend in. In my opinion we actually show, and improve our confidence daily by not conforming to the masses and wearing what the hell we like! To be honest, I think I'm putting to much emphasis on this outfit, especially since it sort of happened because I found  a summer dress I wanted to wear, but since its winter I layered up. So here's your check list for the Crazy, not so old, bag lady look. 1. Baggy dress 2. Layers; preferable a shirt you have worn to death 3. an ill fitting jacket 4.a woolly hat... And finally (this is optional), some cat hairs or a shopping trolley full of bags and rubbish.  So make like a bag lady and vogue!
