Sometimes dressing exactly the same way as everybody else can be hard. Like, what if you see a pair of knee-high boots on another girl but you can't tell exactly where she got them from?
Luckily for you Topshop has it all figured out with their "What to Wear Guide" to the McCarren Park Pool Parties. First up, a wool beanie. Um, note to Topshop, this isn't London, it's like 95 degrees outside. Also, those retarded Kanye West glasses everyone is wearing. Those are so fetch.
But this guide isn't even the best part. Topshop also has a blogger! Her name is Chioma Nnadi, Style Editor for Fader. Let's take a look inside her world, shall we?
What with all the girls dancing around in puddles and Wellington boots everywhere, the pool felt vaguely like Glastonbury this week. I’ve been feeling homesick for British summers recently so a little rain was actually quite comforting!
Well, that would explain the whole beanie thing. Also, you lazy ass faux hippies should learn how to tie-dye your shirts like a real hippie!
My fingers are still stained purple from my last at-home tie-dying session, which might give you some idea of just how close to my heart I hold this particular fabric treatment. Being the hippie purist that I am, I honestly I feel tie-dye should always be processed with love, i.e. do it yourself! So yeah, maybe I’m a little bit biased. Ready-made tie-dye (or at a push ombré!) can be cool too, especially when it’s a fringed memento you bought on vacation in Ibiza.
Well, that's it for me today! I'll see you on the beaches of Ibiza (enter thumping techno music here).
is tie dye hip?
'kanye west' glasses are a strange thing to call new wave sunglasses!
and does this mean they are talking about mccarren park in england? because that's nuts.
