I Ever wonder "what's my style?"
I know this is a question that has resonated with almost anyone at least one time in their life. The problem is we compare ourselves with the glitterati, modeling ourselves to look exactly like them!
Yes I will tell anyone to live a little, step outside the box, try a color, pattern, or fabric you would have never saw yourself in ever! However, you should never step so far away that you lose the very essence of your very own unique style.
Even if you are in a elegant style dress, with pearls, and you are use to long tees and cardigans, I should still be able to say WOW, that's so You!
Every piece of clothing you put on can always be a reflection of who you are, and magnify your own personality in monumental ways. This is the very reason I love fashion. We can express ourselves, tell a story, show our mood, without ever opening our mouth, or using a pen. It's amazing!
One of my dear girlfriends comes to my mind when I think of individual style. I met Amaris, (I call her Mari), at SAU in 2007, and we instantly became glued to the hip. Inseparable. We were college roommates, sisters, we were everything to each other. Today we are even more intertwined more than ever! She has always maintained true to herself. I know without a shadow of doubt that she will be the one in cute sundresses, tanks, cardigans, neutral tones, peep toe heels, sandals, but no matter what, she looks adorable and so comfortable in her own skin. I love it!
However, this girl will take chances, she will step out of her comfort zone to experience new looks any chance she gets. When I go visit her, getting dressed for our planned outing for the day is one of my most favorite moments with her. Everyone's strategy is different when figuring out an outfit to wear, but to see her, and her charismatic personality shine through during this process is beyond amazing!
She's a lover of smell goods too, so that plays a huge factor in adding to our style. I love her style, I love her willingness to try new things, and most of all I love her! I would love to design clothes for her, she would be a designer's playground! She's classy, she's comfortable, she's Bold and Beautiful!
Let's see her revolutionize from casual, comfy beach day to fashion runway It Girl!
