I crazy bananas broke out (for those of you who speak proper English that means super duper badly) recently and I've been battling these bumps for the past little while! Is this a little TMI?

In our recent Fashion Challenge Pose Off, Mandy wore the heck out of an old school inspired varsity jacket and we couldn't get enough of it. I've been seeing a lot of collegiate jackets in stores, on celebs and on the backs of chic ladies on the street. This got me thinking that I need to jump on the varsity jacket bandwagon!

In this Pose Off, we decided to shake things up a bit and add a new element in the mix. We issued a challenge in this edition. Mandy and I both had to take a pair of basic tennis shoes and blend them into an outfit, making them as fashionable as possible!
