Street Seen

LARA KENNY, 19.

I AM IN Flinders Street Station, city.

I AM a service station attendant and university student.

I AM WEARING a white and black checked dress from Zara. White shoes, a black backpack and white square earrings – they're all from the op shop. I woke up late today for uni and threw the outfit on because it was the first thing I saw, I was going for comfort.

MY STYLE IS If I had to call it anything, I would describe it as 1700s prairie girl-slash-grandma-slash-futuristic bald alien chic!

I ADMIRE THE STYLE OF My main fashion icons are British folk singers Laura Marling and Florence Welch, and American drag queens Trixie Mattel and Katya Zamolodchikova.

MY FAVOURITE PLACES TO SHOP My main haunts are my local op shops, I live in the country so there aren't a whole lot of options for unique and cool clothes. If I'm in the city I like to shop at Zara, Quick Brown Fox and American Rag.

MY BIGGEST FASHION MISTAKE WAS Thankfully I don't really have any fashion regrets. I just see my bad outfits as something to laugh at now.

WHEN I WAS A KID I WORE a lot of fun little pinafores and some two-piece outfits that I wish I could fit into now.

I WOULD NEVER BE CAUGHT DEAD IN low rise pants, they are unacceptable.
