SARTORIAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY - ASHLEE BUSTAMENTE

Ashlee Bustamente
Folk Culture Intern and College Freshman
The Dr. Beverly J. Robinson Communityn Folk Culture Program
Mind-Builders Creative Arts Center


~All throughout my life, I always felt that I had a tomboyish sense of style, but I’ve always dressed with basic ands simple clothes.
~These days I dress casual and I always need to be comfortable in it. 
~I choose clothes that are simple yet don’t make me stand out of the crowd completely.





~There are never times when I don’t buy cargo pants or Arizona Jean Company skinny jeans.  I always buy colorful t-shirts with cool or funny sayings.  I also wear V-neck sweaters or striped t-shirts.





-When I am with my friends in Manhattan, I make sure to put an extra edge to my basic clothes.
-For example, a cool t-shirt with my Black Arizona polyester skinny jeans with my Airwalk Slip-On shoes.





-I believe that I dress like a typical teen, which is casual when around family because I’m the only teen in my family.
-I almost never wear skirts or dresses, probably because it feels too feminine and I wore uniform skirts & dresses for 15 years in school.  I also tend to avoid heels, which I’ve never felt comfortable walking in.
~However, I will always wear dressy tops or dresses with heels or for special occasions as the exception.
~Since I’m a 19 year old in college, I definitely identify with the group of people who don’t care about famous name brands for quality.
~I believe we dress for ourselves as well as to wear current trends, like skinny jeans for society a little bit.





~I always feel best wearing clothes that I personally love as well as to try to wear clothes and accessories, like my New York Yankees hat to give a piece of my personality.
-I always hope that my everyday clothing says that I’m a nice, approachable, and slightly quirky person.
