January 26, 2012
I know everyone thinks they’re different, unique and expressive in their style, but in reality, they’re not. If you think about what girls wear at our school, I’m sure everyone would have the same answers. Leggings and Uggs, Sperrys, t-shirts and jeans, etc. I’ll even admit... Read more »
