manrepeller

When did repelling become attractive? Seriously it is not only me, there are thousands of people (well women), fashion editors, designers, department stores who think just like me :) Yes I am talking about Leandra Medine (aka Man Repeller) It has become like an addiction, I cannot keep myself from checking her blog everyday.

So what is man repelling? See it in her own words;

[Man repelling is] outfitting oneself in a sartorially offensive way that will result in repelling members of the opposite sex. Such garments include but are not limited to harem pants, boyfriend jeans, overalls (see: human repelling), shoulder pads, full length jumpsuits, jewelry that resembles violent weaponry and clogs.

It is hard for me to dress like her. In fact I think this kind of dressing is better
on Androgynous types (like Rumi from Fashion Toast or Erin Wasson or Ezgi Kıramer) But I definitely get some inspiration from her, especially her arm party thing. (I should do a post about my new friendship bracelets from Mexixo... They are so cute. )

Hhere is a selection of Leandra's posts, yes she is crazy :) For more, check her blog.












Her arm party !



She is also friends with DANNIJO designers and designed a set of jewellery this season with them...





But I must admit, I also like her style (even more) when she is not being man repelling :)
