Passing Fashion: Sofya's polka dots

Passing Fashion Sofya

Pretty in polka dots.

Who?
Sofya, a pre-med student at UAlbany

Where?
Uncommon Grounds

Where do you shop?
I shop at the mall a lot. Express, Forever 21. And thrift shops in New York.

What's with the polka dots?
I'm obsessed with polka dots. My grandmother and my mom are obsessed with them too. I think it's a comfort thing. I love them because I saw them a lot when I was growing up.

How would you describe your style?
It depends on my mood. Comfort is most important. I like layering things. I like an outfit that will work all day.

Do you wear a lot of black and white?
Definitely. Black is my thing. I think that's because of my mom too. You never see her in anything but black. I wear a lot of black and white and pink.

AOA's Take:
The layers make it look comfortable and ready for day or night, the black and white give it a sophisticated look and the polka dots add a little vintage fun.

I can't tell if she's talking on an invisible cell phone or picking wax out of her ears.

i like it kinda but my initial reaction was that theres way to much black. why not a colored cardigan? or a metallic? or if your gonna keep it all black go with a colored shoe and some shiny accessaries. its a good attempt but its definatly kinda boring. just add color. otherwise i like the dress n heels

Who would have thought that the city of Troy could have chosen a building uglier than the one they're already in as the location of their new city hall? It's okay, actually. If the plans for the future of the current City Hall site pan out, they can put the new city hall in Cohoes for all I care.
