Cultural Immersion

I feel like one of the reasons that people like studying abroad is that it is socially acceptable for them to wear ridiculous clothes under the pretext that they are truly immersing themselves and trying their best to get to know the culture.

Why does this come to mind right now? Because I'm wearing a South American version of what looks like a sweater your grandma would knit for you for the holidays (my mom just gave it to me from Ecuador), and I own one pair of new-age Aladdin pants that are all the rage right now. I've been eyeing the purple version of these pants for quite some time now, so why don't we just go ahead and make the Aladdin Pants Count two.

Studying abroad: Where the Worst-Dressed List becomes the Most Culturally Saavy List. Hey, I'm a fashion disaster anyway - I'm not complaining.
