Style: Girly punk
Wearing: Skirt from Chinatown, leggings from high-school band t-shirt with accidental bleach stains, roommate’s jacket, thrift-store shoes, sunglasses from Kensington Market
Punk-dressing credo: “I used to live in a dive with a group of punks and be a drifter, and I cannot detach myself from the style of punk life. It is a comfortable and unique way of dressing that doesn’t require caring about how it looks and what people think of it.”
