blog #12 Fashion Trends

Fashion. It is forever changing. One minute there is a new trend, then its gone and a few years later it comes back again. I feel that I fit into trends. My style is a comfortable style. I would rather wear comfortable clothes rather than look decent and be uncomfortable all day. I don’t necessarily follow a pack. Yet I do wear popular trends that fit into my style, such as: cardigans skinny jeans, flannel shirts, scarves. I will not change my style or beliefs to follow others. For example the trend of wearing leggings as pants. This is a trend I do not follow. I’m sorry leggings are not pants, they are tights that are meant to have something over them. So let’s say a girl is wearing a short shit and leggings, I do not think that looks right. Now let’s say a girl is wearing a skirt or shorts over the leggings or a long shirt or short dress, that is acceptable to me. That is a style that I have done in the past. I have my beliefs and I know that not everyone has the same, so if someone doesn’t agree with me that is fine by me, I just won’t wear it. Brand names aren’t a big deal to me. I would rather wear Kmart or Target than an expensive brand that is the same. A cheaper shirt sometimes lasts longer than the more expensive shirts that are sold at stores like Hollister or Abercrombie. Therefore I do not abandon brands that become to popular because brands are not my “thing.” I don’t believe I am a trend setter, I just wear what I want and if you want to follow me that’s ok, if not that’s fine to. People say they like my style so I must be doing something right. If a person wants to follow me that’s there prerogative.

  1. Go Girl! I always find it really impressive when people are able to rise above what the rest of society are doing and do their own thing. I totally agree with you that leggings are not pants. People need to learn to cover their butts better when they go out in public. Leggings belong under another article of clothing. And it is true that you can buy better quality shirts for cheaper proces. A lot of the name brand clothes stretch out or get holes in them. Expensive is not always better!!!
