Spring Fashion 2015

I am so mad at Style.com.  They deleted the all the Lookbook accounts and didn't inform users beforehand.  My years of lookbooks are gone now. :(

I had to restart making lookbooks  using Pinterest, which can sometimes be a pain to use. So here are my Spring 2015 Lookbooks.  I hope this works correctly.

My favorite Spring/Summer 2015 Ready to Wear looks:

Follow LilyFair's board S/S 2015: Ready to Wear on Pinterest.

What Color Is Your Name? Quiz

Your Name is Black
Your name tells people that you are serious and sophisticated. Your name makes you seem like a total mystery.
You are elegant and a bit apart from everyone else. You are much more formal than those around you.

People see you as smart and together. You also come off as a bit eccentric, and others respect that you are different from them.
You can adapt well to most situations, but you never feel like you truly fit in anywhere.

Art excites you. You try to bring it into your everyday life as much as possible.
You have a few key interests that are borderline obsessions. You can't stop thinking about them!

The Small Vase Quiz

You Are Sophisticated
You are well known for your sense of style. You tend to influence others without even meaning to.
You are a trendsetter and a spotlight stealer. Even when you're just laying low, people notice you.

You may have a high social status, but you are still accessible. In fact, you are quite warmhearted.
You are always ready to make a new friend, and you don't judge based on appearances.

"I'm Not Being Racist, But..."



P.S. Nice point about the Pepsi/Coke thing. My family calls all soft drinks "coke" even when they are not Coke. When I go to a restuarant and ask for a coke I really mean a Pepsi because I prefer Pepsi. When the server says they don't have Coke, but is Pepsi okay, I am actually glad.
