Varsity Captain

July 3, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Today I’m playing with the idea of an old-school cheerleader. A very preppy, athletic outfit as far as my outfits go. I found this cropped sweater at Forever21 and love the versatility of it. I can easily replace the shirt with leather shorts and the sneakers with heels for a totally different look.
