I remember the hunt for new shoes and release info and how much of an adventure/accomplishment that was. You couldn’t just go to flight club and cop whatever you wanted. Everybody just buying their style today, before it took research, skill, and your own personality

 

[ninjahood]

The Preppy Handbook was the original Hypebeast drawing

I learned so much from Tim Gunn's Fashion Bible, if you love this stuff, GET THAT BOOK
the book itself isn't terribly deep, but it leads you down a nice path for your own research

i guess if we're keepin it funky, da jenner girls are bringing back that sporty sexi in da new era...white girls had veen pretty much written off for me since da early 90's when grunge hit.

 

[servechilled81]

I was watching some documentary it talked about how Vogue magazine hated the grunge era, this right during the time when Supermodels were a big deal
and they hated having to put them in the magazine in grunge wear but it was the thing at the time so they had to do it. They wanted to kill that trend quick
