Mmmmh.... today i was pretty bobo.. I woke up late!

I think there's a difference between bobo and just being dressed down. I don't think everytime someone where's sweats and a nice bag it's intentional to look a certain way. I went out shopping in skinny jeans, birks and oversized vintage (ie I found it in my basement) hoodie with my Jimmy Choo Ramona but it was because I was dressed down and I'm not going to change my bag to 'match' the price of the rest of my outfit? I think thats a bit absurd. I understand that some people buy expensive pieces that look like a lot less but sometimes I think people just want to be comfy and mix and match and not bother.

Bobo is an attitude, a concept, not just a way of under-dressing..

About MK.... What is even more bobo than her fake-poor appearance is the fact that she got her bodyguard to look scrubby as well. afterall a james bond lookalike standing next to her would really hurt her newfound street credibility, not to mention it looks so much better when in magazine articles about the trend. so what next? a mashed up ferrari with broken windows and flat tires?

makes me think of Bam Margiela, you know that millionaire skater punk on MTV who invented Jackass. Last time i watched it he was drilling apart holes in his lamborghini because it was too hot, and drove his Hummer off a cliff after losing a stupid bet. He's like the godfather of BOBO-ism !

exactly, and I was suggesting that some of the pics weren't bobo because they were just 'under dressing'. but I really don't think Bam is bobo at all. Just stupid

Hahah, wow I never knew this had a title..I often dress like it, except not normally with designer bags/sunglasses, but with nice jewelry instead I guess.. I think muted colors work well on me, and I don't really know why I like wearing them so much more than brights but I do! Of course I don't have the whole "my attitude reflects my clothing" thing.. but I do like vintage looking things and...slightly ripped/mineral washed t-shirts. Especially if they're long. Okay, just my point of view.

I love the boho style, but Mary-Kate olsen is a exception.

 

[zashikibuta_vert]

I dunno..I appreciate this trend..Something irks me about someone who has to match their bag to their shoes to their nails...etc...

Or they have a chanel bag and they HAVE to wear chanel shoes, a chanel outfit....

In the Philippines, bobo means "dumb".

I agree, this will look good on some people. However, on some, it simply looks trashy. I love the look though.

but what about ppl who really don't give a damn?!

They wear sweatpants and t-shirts...trust me I go to school with them.

Is MK still dresssing in bobo chic?
