to wear things like this.

I'm used to it. All my friends i used to scramble around with used to like things like this too. we go out of our way to find cheaper versions of NY chic jackets, outfts, accesories. we used to waste our book money on clothes. But now where i am, people arent so fashion forward. they are rather backwards. they still wear turtlenecks with sweatshirts. and soccer mom jeans. they either stare when i go to the mall, or come up to me and compliment. men flock like they've never seem a woman before. recently i've seen some girls in my school trying to copy how i dress. its cute b/c i feel they were inspired by me. and i was inspired by designers, so it's cool. they never used to do it. matter o fact. they used to talk about how they thought i was a B. they used to ask me to tone it down. lol now they ask me where i got this, and that. hehehe they can go jump in a lake. cant even pull it off correctly. hehe.

on a serious note, ths area is depressing. cramping my style. i have to travel 45 mins into the city to just get a descent outfit, and pray that no-one else wears it the way i do. hehehe. no boutiques around. no consignment stores. no fashion schools. you'd be surprised how cheap u can get a student to make something for u. lol ....oh well
