I realized the other day that most of the fashion blogs I follow I found by reading the IFB weekly round up. I’m not all that familiar with most of this week’s winners, which just means I might find even more that I have to start following.
If you like to hit the Goodwill for bargains check out “Adventures in Refashioning“ for some interesting thoughts on thrift store shopping and why you might want to pay with cash instead of credit.
If you are a blogger yourself you won’t want to miss “Blogging for Bucks: Why I don’t just blog for me.” and the post on Leia’s Delights on why she loves outfit posts “Sunday Musings: Why Outfit Posts?”
If you’re feeling crafty, check out Kristin Marie’s “DIY Floral Mary Janes”.
Style is what you make it. We are all different and beautiful in our own ways. Many of us have different techniques to display how we want to present ourselves. Some people are very “structured” “prim and proper” and live by a color scheme while others go wild with mixing patterns and have the “unpolished” and “don’t care” look. It’s all about where you get your inspiration from and your personality in general.
Here are some classic quotes on style:
- “Fashion fades, style is eternal.” -YSL
- “Fashion is not something that exist only in dresses. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.” -Coco Chanel
- “‘Style’ is an expression of individualism mixed with charisma. Fashion is something that comes after style.” -John Fairchild
