Fashion, passion, and action!

Many of you have asked me to write about the fashion of teenagers in school.  Well I have not forgotten about your request.  Actually I have been trying to subtly take pictures of people at school, but it hasn't been working so unfortunately I do not have pictures of the fashion. 
The boys dress very classy (so to say) - They wear collared button down shirts (almost always stripped) with jeans.  The jeans are not skinny jeans, but they are not flare or boot cut.  They are slim (?) I guess? I'm not sure how to describe it.  If they are not wearing button down dress shirts the guys are in sweaters.  Sometimes the guys wear a polo under the sweaters (double wammy!!)  As for shoes, by far the most popular shoes here are converse.  Everyone wears Converse; not just students, but adults too!  They wear white Converse that 9 times out of 10 are high tops.  The people who wear high tops then roll up there (slim) jeans a little bit just so that people can see that they are wearing high tops.  Boys also wear Sperry's, the ones that kind of look like slippers with black socks.  
The girls wear a lot of black, white, grey, and brown.  They all wear black skinny jeans!  As for shirts, well they wear a lot of sweaters, just like the guys.  There are also a lot of shirts made of nylon or polyester that are like translucent kind of...I am not exactly sure how to describe them, but that's my description. :)  The girls wear converse all the time but also wear leather boots that just go right above the ankles.  
Both boys and girls wear leather jackets with circle scarves when they are outside in the cold.  

I was able to take a couple pictures of an Innebandy practice.  There are little guards up around the outside to show the playing field.  And from what I can tell you really cannot get called for a foul unless you raise the stick above your waist, hit someone with it, or deliberately hurt someone.  As you can imagine with the ball being so light people pass it in the air or the ball just pops up when you are competing so you are allowed to use your body to bring down the ball an shield off other players.



This is what I ride past everyday on my way to school.  I thought it was especially pretty on this day!
