How do you guys feel about trends? To me, they’re something I can never decide about. As a teenager, I did my best to avoid anything mainstream – and, back then, skulls were reserved for the rock and punk crowd. They were outrageous – and so were biker jackets, distressed jeans, safety pins, stacked leather & metal bracelets and military boots worn with skirts, i.e. everything I liked. And here we are in 2013 with all these being fashionable and adored. I’ve worn this sweater three times already, and every time I got comments on how trendy it is. I don’t know, I just wanted something a bit edgy to pair with lace dresses like this one for contrast. I didn’t realize I was so spot on until I saw it in pictures: burgundy, cropped, with skulls and crosses – everything that girls love these days. And you know what? It’s a great sweater.
