Well ManChic is all about finding your personal style and reinventing your self, but are there any limits to individualism ? Yes , and good taste is probably one of the limits. We love Marc Jacobs and each of those items he was wearing at the premiere of "Defiance" in NYC, are really stylish and should be used in moderation to enhance your look, but all of them together is a definite fashion NO. Sorry Marc, we love you in skirt but sometimes you should "dress down" a bit.
