Mirror in the Bathroom: Touques Off
I am told that touques will be a key accessory this spring. I, for one, welcome this trend as I really need a haircut but can’t afford one at the moment. Here is a selfie of me, in my bathroom mirror, sporting a hat that I just finished knitting. Eclecticism continues to be another big trend in fashion for spring. Mixing and match bold patterns and textures and marrying them with pieces inspired by tribal looks — and we’re talking tribes identified by musical genre as much as ethnography. So I’ve whipped up a grungy South Western school marm ensemble here.
