interested in casual
sportswear, ankle length
pants, pedal pushers and
Bermuda shorts are coming
into fashion. These styles of
cropped pants and shorts are

tops for a chic, casual look.
Many people left their
bulkier shoes from the 30s

darling footwear option! So
you can style
yourself to look
totally hip! Don’t
get left in the
past because
fashion
is only moving
foward!
