Since I have begun writing this blog, I have started taking pictures of individuals who break the cardinal rules of fashion while hoping to share these great sins with my readers. In the future, I hope to introduce a new fashion victim and possibly give you a little fashion sense. First, I must define what a fashion victim is. According to wikipedia, the term "fashion victim" was coined by the great fashion designer Oscar de la Renta and defines a person who is unable to identify commonly recognized boundaries of style. For a simple example, an individual who wears a black belt with brown shoes would be a fashion victim. Anyone who follows the guidelines of style or just wears clothes in general should know this unspoken rule. Of course, it is obviously spoken of in our household. Maya would never go out without matching her collar to her harness!
When it comes down to it, I hope to prevent breaking the fashion laws instead of policing them. I'm not the type of person to go up to someone and tell them that their belt and shoes don't match, but I can stop you, as my reader, from committing these acts in the future. Please allow me to introduce you to our first victim (drum roll):

| A tourist in NYC |
Although there is much to be said about the plaid outfit, tall socks, and tennis shoes, I shall focus my time on the thing attached to her head. First of all, I believe this item to be a hatisor which happens when you breed a hat with a visor. Second of all, the size of this thing is outstanding. I feel that a plane could make a landing with ease on that wide brim. When speaking with her, you must take a few steps back so as not to intrude on her extended bubble. An attack from above would go unnoticed. The sun completely gives up on burning that face....oh but those arms. Her turning radius is greatly wider making it difficult to clear nearby walls. Fashion rule: Never wear a hatisor large enough to shade two faces. Well, I think that about sums it up.
Stay stylish, my friends.
