Indiecore vs. Preppycore

Tomorrow is laundry day and that means I'm running out of things to wear.  I dug deep into my dresser and found a black Lacoste polo that I bought a several years back when I was prepppycore [catholic highschool's a bitch [stifled my creativity]].  I really haven't worn it since then but then I got a crazy idea.  I decided to wear the polo for the sake of irony; BOOM, automatic transition from preppycore to indiecore.  I mean, that's just about as authentically indiecore as it gets [indiecore kids dig irony].  
Maybe I can accessorize with a bandana and rad shades like the indiecore bro pictured above just to make sure that everyone knows that I'm trying to be ironic.  Gotta keep it authentic, my personal brand is all that I've got.

Miniature Alt




I am the miniature alt
///I am 12 years old but age is only a number  
///All my friends are in college or grad school
///Leggings are not a fashion accessory, they are a lifestyle
///I was born with my own sense of style and my own personal brand
///I grew out of my "Limited Too" phase when I was in pre-kindergarten 
///I have to alter all the clothes I buy from vintage stores to make them miniature size
///my ex-boyfriend is a 25 year old party photographer that used to be in a shoegaze-core band  [still luv him]
///I went to my first rave when I was 8 years old
///I liked No Age before Pitchfork ever wrote about them
///I lie to people and tell them my mum is Lykke Li 
///I got this posing shit down
///I am the miniature alt and I've been told that I'm very mature for my age

My Blog Crush

This is my blog crush
///We met at a show in Paris.  She's a native but I'm just studying abroad
///We go shopping for indie/vintage threads together at least once a week
///Her greatest accomplishment in her young life thus far is being featured as #5 hottest on Lookbook
///She downloaded my December Mixtape when I didn't even message her about it
///She writes self-motivational messages on her bathroom mirror in red lipstick to help her get through the day
///She wished she had poor eyesight so she could have legitimate perscription glasses instead of just frames
///The pose pictured above took her 6 hours straight in front of the mirror to master
///Her jacket is made of pleather because she thinks leather is morally wrong
///Her parents 'just don't understand'
///This is my blog crush and I love the idea of her
