Edmonton, the city of fashion?

I don't know if it was because of just not having a vacation for over two years, that my fashion senses were heightened. The first two days were really just perusing the U of A campus, but even the lowly students walking off to their next classes looked well put together fashion wise. I mean seriously, when I looked at them, they had clothes that fit...clothes that looked good. They looked like freaking Milan models compared to the FSJ people I usually see.

Of course it doesn't help that my microcosm of the convenience store has narrowed my fashion view to flannel, dated rock t-shirts or t-shirts in general, faded jeans, clothes that are either too tight or too loose on the teenagers and hoodies. But still, it is quite true on how behind FSJ is in terms of fashion, at least 3-5 years behind. I don't know if Edmontonians (or at least U of A students) are just more fashion concious, or if it is the big city culture that makes them dress better in general. It's funny on how natural it seems to come.
