Snowflakes like true individuals are one of a kind. Taking shape as they fall through the varying complexities of the sky's tricky atmosphere. Arriving and manifesting themselves in their own unique way, different from every other snowflake that falls that day, because each person just like snowflakes have their own experiences, intricacies and beautiful stories.
Hobo, bohemian, unisex style... Like all things dope it's hard to categorize, compartmentalize, and label that which is truly unique. It's been pretty male dominated in these parts and I think it's time to let the ladies shed some light. When I initially started this series I had to shoot women. But I wanted to make it relatable to me and all of you. So the rules were and will continue to be if I photograph a woman, a man should be able to wear the exact same thing and look just as good. You have your work cut out for you gentlemen. For your daily inspiration, the truly unique... Tanya Romero...
way to go, love it! -chinatownwill d;)

great to do a post with the slightest hint of androgyny. many women do wear men's clothes, and some like to add style to their wardrobe. great post!
