Trendy vs. Style

I don't claim at all to be the "trendy" type. I don't follow what's hot for the season and I don't know anything really about fashion designers and their latest collections, and I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with those that do! I actually commend and applaud those that do.

However, I am one that likes to wear what I want to wear, when I want to wear it! It doesn't matter what season it is and if it's appropriate or if it's "fashion faux pas". I've been known to rock a wool skirt in the summer (it was knee length so I don't think it mattered), I've rocked white after Labor Day (isn't always after Labor day anyway), and I've even done a strapless dress in the winter (I had a short jacket over it)!

I think rules sometimes stifle our creativity and I think trends shouldn't serve as a pattern to copy but a template to inspire your own style. Don't be afraid to do you and be free!
