A trend is defined as the general direction in which something tends to move, and when it comes to fashion, that something is the current or latest style: what's en vogue. Certainly, it's easy enough to be trendy by purchasing the latest looks off the mannequins each season, however this strategy is both prohibitively expensive and does little towards creating your own personal style. Style – and especially personal style – is something which cannot be bought off the rack.
Fashion Trends
Many people make the mistake of thinking that trends are fashion commandments to be slavishly obeyed season after season. On the contrary, trends are merely suggestions of how to develop your individual look - cues in the overall tone of your personal style.
Personal Style
Fashion Fantasy
Each Spring and Fall, year after year, the fashion industry churns out sartorial fantasy: innovative garments on Amazon models marching down skinny runways and poised uncomfortably in airbrushed photographs on the pages of glossy magazines. While exciting and incredibly entertaining, fashion fantasy rarely has any place in the life of real women.
Fashion Reality
Fashion reality requires a woman to perform an ongoing honest evaluation of her body type, frame, and lifestyle. Fashion intuition is the necessary third ingredient to being a fabulously stylish woman; it's how you incorporate trends into your wardrobe and make them your own.
No trend is for everyone, so you need to be judicious about what garments and accessories, colors and cuts are appropriate for your figure, features, coloring and lifestyle.
