In many of my favorite films from my teenage years, if there was a young protagonist, I could be sure that they would be rebellious in some form another. Lindsay Lohan in Freaky Friday defied her mother in all of her gothic glory. Even Violet, in The Incredibles was too suave with her jet-black hair to be bothered by her parents for much of the movie.
While I did have a head of frizzy hair that could have easily set a scrawny teen off balance, I didn’t not attempt any acts of rebellion as a kid. Instead, I expressed myself with what I wore. In the rural town of Fruita, Colo., I was at an advantage against my peers who opted for Wrangler denim or Volcom tees. Although, I was an offender of donning four-too-many pairs of skater shoes without any ability to maneuver a skateboard.
Thankfully, my sense in style has progressed. To add to that, I’ve recently found a blog, titled Scout Sixteen, which features current, young fashion. One of the most noteworthy aspects of the blog is that the author of the blog, Justin Livingston, understands the versatility of his readers. Adventuring as a twenty-something can’t always call for a suit and tie, and his blog posts address this fact with looks that include denim, sweaters, and the like.
Drawing inspiration from Justin Livingston, at Scout Sixteen, I’ve added a ‘Style’ dimension to A Furled Brow. And if your own style staples include sweaters from your granddad’s era to layering outrageous graphic tees, I hope you’ll follow along.
