From Pinterest to Real Life…

So in hopes of not letting this be true… I have decided to try to put into reality some of the many outfits that I have been pinning to the “My Style” board on my Pinterest.

I suppose these fragrances are inspired by or named after her entourage/backup dancers, the Harajuku girls. If you are familiar with Gwen Stefani then surely you have seen these four girls. Anyway.
