Dear Fashion Authorities, consider this our official admission of guilt.
We, the unapologetic rebels of Bold by Design, freely confess to a long list of fashion violations. Premeditated, intentional, and absolutely committed to the cause. And guess what? We’re far from sorry. In fact, we plan to do it all over again—louder, prouder, and in a graphic unisex t-shirt that simply says, “Oops.”
Crime #1: Dressing However We Want
Listen, Karen, if we feel like wearing our “I’M PICKLED” tee to a PTA meeting, that’s between us, our questionable life choices, and whatever poor soul has to make eye contact with us across the juice boxes. This masterpiece—featuring a slightly inebriated pickle—is more than a shirt. It’s a declaration that adulthood is overrated, and dressing like a retirement brochure model is not on our agenda.
Crime #2: Deploying Puns in Public
The only thing worse than dad jokes? Nothing. That’s why we proudly rock our “Say Cheese! I’m So Grate” tee, forcing innocent bystanders into groans they secretly enjoy. This isn’t just a funny t-shirt—it’s a tactical strike against awkward small talk. Because in a world obsessed with curated Instagram aesthetics, a grinning grilled cheese with a selfie stick is practically a revolution.
Crime #3: Announcing Our Chaos Through Clothing
We don’t have it all together, and we’re not pretending we do. Our “Adulting is Soup and I’m a Fork” tee isn’t just a fashion choice—it’s a lifeline for anyone who’s ever tried to “be responsible” and failed spectacularly. It’s for the ones who show up at a black-tie event wondering if their graphic tee qualifies as avant-garde. Spoiler: It absolutely does.
Our Most Notorious Offense? Recruiting Others
We’re not just guilty—we’re instigators. We’ve started a movement of fearless fashion misfits who believe clothes should make you laugh, make people question their friendship with you, and occasionally make HR do a double take.
To the so-called “fashion authorities,” we have one thing to say:
- Your no mixing patterns rule? We counter with florals, plaid, and polka dots in a glorious riot of color.
- Your “dress appropriately” mandate? We raise you an entire lineup of graphic tees that could make a corporate lawyer break character.
- Your fashion-is-serious-business attitude? We respond with a wardrobe that’s basically a walking meme.
Breaking Fashion Laws Since Forever
We’ve stomped all over the sacred style commandments:
“Thou shalt not mix metals.” Watch us wear gold, silver, and copper like a human jewelry store in crisis.
“Thou shalt dress for success.” Define success. Because we once wore a pickle-themed shirt to a business meeting and somehow got promoted.
“Thou shalt follow trends.” Nah, we’ll pass. We’re too busy pioneering “Effortless Chaos Chic” and “Casual but Confusing.”
The evidence is undeniable—we’ve influenced countless others to ditch the rulebook in favor of self-expression, comfort, and a good laugh. We believe that fashion should be fun, not a test of who can look the most pensive about fall collections.
So yes, we’re guilty. Guilty of choosing humor over haute couture. Guilty of creating clothing that sparks joy, not just judgmental stares. Guilty of fostering a community where the only fashion crime is taking yourself too seriously.
To our fellow outlaws: This is your permission slip. Wear that wildly inappropriate tee to dinner with the in-laws. Clash those patterns with reckless abandon. Rock that “I’M PICKLED” shirt to your next Zoom meeting (camera on, obviously). Because in a world full of fashion dos and don’ts, we choose do whatever makes you cackle.
Case closed. No regrets.
P.S. To the fashion police: Yes, we did start the socks-with-sandals revival. And yes, we’re designing a t-shirt to celebrate it. The fashion apocalypse is near, and we’re leading the charge.
Verdict: Guilty of being criminally awesome. Who’s joining the rebellion?
