ALYSSA’S STYLE: I’ve never been one for describing my style because it always seems to be changing. As of recently though, I’ve been really enjoying the grunge style!
INSPIRATION: Street style photos I see, especially photos on lookbook.nu, inspire me. If I see something I like, I’ll try to incorporate it into an outfit in one way or another. I love to experiment!
IF YOU COULDN’T BE YOU, WHO WOULD YOU BE? This is a tough question. If I couldn’t be me, I’d probably be my mother. She’s an amazing figurehead and has accomplished so much in her life!
WHAT ASPECT OF FASHION APPEALS TO YOU THE MOST? The aspect of fashion that appeals to me the most is actually the people in it. The people in the fashion community are so kind and supportive! They really do keep edging me on in doing what I love, which is blogging!
STAPLE ITEMS FOR FALL: I think I emphasize this a bit too much, but my staple items for the fall are knit sweaters. I almost have too many, but I can’t get enough of them! Also, chelsea-styled ankle booties have been fabulous this fall.
HOMETOWN GLORY: Edmonton has a wide range of styles! I’m not quite sure if you can say it’s known for its fashion (although some people consider West Edmonton Mall to be the epitome of fashion), but depending on which part of the city you’re in, what you see differs completely! As for its influence on me, a lot of what I see in Edmonton is considerably conservative in comparison to the fashion I see outside the city, so I try to stay away from popular trends here. Instead, I’m usually paying attention to fashion elsewhere.
WISH-LIST: My Christmas wish-list is ridiculously length, but some of the things that I’m lusting after include body chains, graphic leggings, and ridiculously outrageous jewelry!
