Cold and wet weather has its good points and bad points. Esp the wet part. I’m one of those people who don’t like getting their feet wet. Fashion-wise, this kind of weather allows a different sort of style to emerge. Simply because there are certain fashion pieces, both apparel and accessory, that aren’t suitable to our normal warm and humid weather.

Why wouldn’t this idea sell here in our country? It’s brilliant, IMHO. We are a t-shirt country after all. I like how they even styled the shirt in some of the photos. They’re re-introducing the punk 80s look with their styling ideas.
How do you get the look?
Choose a shirt a couple of sizes bigger than yours.

High Waisted Drainpipe Jean
Topshop
Stylishly practical, don’t you think? I’ve got to hand it to Topshop. Add a generous applause, if it pleases you. This is one pair of jeans that a girl will appreciate.
