SARTORIAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY - ASHLEY BAILEY

Ashley Bailey
Folk Culture Intern and High School Junior
The Dr. Beverly J. Robinson Community Folk Culture Program
Mind-Builders Creative Arts Center



I dress with a lot of pride.



My style of clothing is very unique.  One of the words that I use is “Priss-Cute-Ous.”   

I use this word because Priss is my prissy but unique style.  I like shoes and tops that suit my style and feeling of the day.

Cute is my style because of my bags and jewelry - plus everything has to match with the bag.

Ous means that you will never know what I will wear the next day. One day I might end up in some boy-shorts and some flip flops and then the next day some heels and a skirt.
 


My attire says I'm a very unique person.




Just like my mother, I love earthy colors like brown, purple, olive green, etc.

I'm growing up and I have a mind of my own. I go by what I want to wear and not what others want to see me in.  I dress the way I do because I'm different from a lot of people and I would love to keep it that way.




My style is made to fit me because I'm a phat girl that takes pride in what I do and wear. Phat is the word I learnt meaning Pretty Hot and Thick. That means a lot to me because it defin's who I really am and the people who are the same size as me.

One community of style that I’m a part of is the very weird authentic.  It is mixed with priss-cute-ous and simply me. The reason is because I don't usually wear retro colors because they’re too bright and out there.  So, I go by what I feel comfortable with.
