Lesbro Lessons: How to Wear Snapbacks Without Looking Like a Tool

image

(from this post)

Anonymous asked: What do you think about snapbacks? Tips on wearing them without looking douchey?

A.D. says: Wearing a snap-back requires a few things, including swagger and a slight smirk. Both can lead to douchey-ness, BUT you can totally rock a snapback without looking like an asshole. You just gotta strike the right balance. Snapbacks, for starters, should be paired with something other than shorts and a tank top. I think snapbacks go with most outfits, even a blazer and tie (but, like, outside the office, obvi). In a snapback, avoid the ‘I’m so cool’ face, in which you never smile, have your earphones in, and look miserable. You will look like an asshole; instead, SMILE. 

That’s it.

Hat Do’s and Do’s

Anonymous asked: I would really like to start wearing hats with some of my outfits. I own a few, but whenever I put them on, I feel like it’s too much & end up not wearing them. I’m partial to fedoras. I’ve never tried to pull off the skater/trucker hat, but I’ve always wanted to. Any ideas for fedoras, skater/trucker, or hats in general? & what kinds of dos/don’ts with outfits?

My friend A.D. says: haaaaaa, my eternal question.

Here’s the deal: if you wear it right, nothing is too much. But I understand your issue; hats are tricky, especially fedoras. Even though I’m not partial to fedoras (my head is a weird shape), I think fedoras can be worn just about anywhere. They look especially good when paired with dapper items, like collared shirts, oxfords, ties, etc. (Extra points if you wear a fedora on a date!) I’ve seen people rock them in jean shorts and T-shirts, too. The key to wearing a fedora (or any hat, really) is confidence. You’re wearing this cool/vintage-y hat, and it’s right there on top of your head with no place to hide. 

Swag/confidence is required for skater/trucker hats, too, but it’s a different type of confidence. Fedora says, “Yeah, I know I’m wearing this, and I look damn good!” Skater/trucker says, “Bro, I’m cool and silly, and I know it.” Skater/truckers are rocked best when paired with some skinny jeans/tank top OR shorts/shirt (or tank).

Ashley and Sarah Continue to Charm

Ashley and her friend Sarah from the controversial “Fashion Police Lesbian Edition” video have one more thing in common: a love for varsity jackets. These the high school popular-kid nostalgia pieces seem to be especially popular now, though never really went out of style. Forever 21 has about 10 different kinds, but based on my experience with their clothing quality compared to H&M  which goes for the same price  I’d recommend H&M’s version for women.

Ashley continues to dazzle us with her urban swag meets hipster chick style. She satisfies all of our urban desires with the snapback sitting high on the head, graffiti backdrop, huge cup, and key chain hanging from her belt loop; and then soothes all our hipster needs with the Vans and Urban Outfitters belt.
