This blog is serving a duel purpose for me. It is a place that I can go crazy venting about the path to becoming debt free and it is also somewhere that I can share my many thoughts on fashion. Before I start blathering on with my opinion on the latest trends, I thought I would throw a disclaimer out there and lay down a few of my "ground rules of fashion."
First, I in no way claim to be an expert in any way in the area of fashion. I just know what I like and I glean a lot of information from magazines like Glamour, Cosmo and Vogue. I do follow trends- a little bit. However, anything I write in this blog is my opinion and only my opinion. If you don't like what I say or if I somehow offend, I am sorry. Leave me a comment and maybe we can have a good discussion about it.
Alright, on to the good stuff.
My own personal basic rules of fashion:
1. When I speak (or type, rather) about fashion, I am not talking about designer labels. I am a Midwestern girl and live in the real world, where I can't afford to spend $500 a piece of clothing. Most of my clothes and accessories come from stores that you should be able to find at any good mall. There are only two exceptions to this in my wardrobe, and I will talk about those in a later post.
2. I don't think looking good should be uncomfortable. I'm not trying to squeeze into something that doesn't fit my body because it's trendy right now. I don't buy a smaller size pants even thought I can get them up if they make it hard to breathe. I'm not going to wear a shirt that in order to look good, I have to suck my stomach in all day. The only exception to this rule is shoes. Sometimes, your feet are just gonna hurt.
3. It's only cool if it looks good on you. Perfect example: high-waisted pants. They looked good on NO ONE. That's why the trend was over before it began.
4. Ultimately, it's not about what other people think. If you love it, rock it.
Always Fabulous,
