Fashion Faux Pas

No matter what phase in their lives they're in, these two BFFs have always made it through together and come out stronger and closer. They even made it through their '90s fashion faux pas and oversize sweatshirt phase.

I am better, stronger, and more accepting because of you! You truly are one of the greatest humans I know and I love you beyond words."
