Our Mode

Our Mode is a his-and-hers blog run by a guy and a girl who perhaps love putting together outfits more than anything. They claim to know nothing of fashion but their sense of style makes up for their so called lack of knowledge. Their well-groomed outfits give wonderful ideas for what to wear, always in a very polished manner. They are also big fans of second-hand finds, helping you save dollars on your shopping habits.
