When we see you on the street and think you put some thought into your style, we may take your picture and ask you things. We call it Street Style.
On Saturday, September 1 the North Texas State Fair Grounds were crawling with people attending the first-ever Hot Wet Mess music festival (put on by the 35 Denton crew). While most people were sporting nothing but swimsuits, some flashier folks caught our eye, so we snapped their pics and asked them some questions about their personal style.
