Let’s face it, we’ve all spent countless hours browsing through Pinterest, be it for your portrait inspiration or street style fashion. This category allows you to proffer your inner Picasso or flaunt your Prada eyebags with poise and sophistication. We’ve all wanted to do something illegal, be it something really dangerous or just graffitiing the wall of that super annoying neighbor; this category will allow you to divert your anger and maybe be crowned as the winner at the same time. And who hasn’t heard of Alizey Shah falling on the ramp walk? Here’s your chance to prove you can do so much better!
