“Style is an expression of individualism mixed with charisma.” ~John Fairchild

The amazing thing about personal style is that it’s in constant evolution. As we continue to grow and morph into new versions of our former selves, so too does our style. Sneakers to match every possible outfit may have defined our aesthetic as an 18-year-old, but with age comes sophistication, and those sneakers may no longer serve the same purpose for the 25-year-old version of oneself. The beautiful thing about an evolving style is that there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. It’s a good thing, so embrace it.

Don’t be afraid of where your style takes you.  The process is one of learning and discovery. Have fun, be free and enjoy every minute of the journey. Style should be easy. When the world gets a glimpse of what makes you you, it shouldn’t look like you used every ounce of energy in your body to make yourself stand out from the crowd. They should say, “Wow, she looks good,” or “Wow, that look is so fun,” and it should end there. They shouldn’t have to ponder whether it’s all for show because style should never be for show. Save that for the costume parties.

Style is all about you. Nothing more or nothing less.
