The Rose Hanger Shop
Regina George wore army pants and flip flops so I wore army pants and flip flops.
In reality, nothing will be worse that outfit-twinning with the person next to you on the first Saturday night out post-quarantine, because you both buy your clothes at the same national retail chain.
If you shop small at boutiques like The Rose Hanger, you avoid this fashion faux pas.

Revolution Buffalo
