You know when you’ve assembled an outfit and it’s not like you just threw on jeans an a t-shit, this is an outfit outfit?  Sometimes it’s a look you really want to stand behind and you think it looks awesome, but you’re a little nervous that you might have crossed the line between edgy and “what was she thinking?”

You know when you dig an old vintage piece out of your mom’s closet and it smells a little weird, but you want desperately to wear it despite the fact that you’re not quite sure how? With bangles? Unbuttoned? As a dress?

You know when you have a simple black dress and for the love of god, you have to accessorize the hell out of it or you know you’ll just end up looking like a legal assistant? But which accessories and does your scarf clash with that wide belt?

And finally, you know when you have this great look put together but you’re trying to decide between two different pairs of Barefoot Tess shoes? Both look cute, but there’s got to be a winner in this equation.

Sometimes you just need help.  Fashism is a website that allows you to ask an entire website of followers their opinion before you leave the house.  You upload your picture and the feedback just flies in.  Because sometimes you don’t want your sister to know you took the tags off of her new short, or your roommate is napping, or your mom will tell you that sweater is garish–you just don’t get it, mom.
