I have a not-so-secret obsession with dresses and skirts. I like classic silhouettes. The hour-glass shape is the most overtly feminine shape out there. I think dressing is about creating a 3-D illusion. Clothes can make you feel good, because when worn well, they can cause people to see things that just aren't there :P But it's also fun because personality informs color, pattern and style. So combining personal preferences with dressing for body-type can grant any girl a classic hourglass, even when she tends naturally to another form. But as no girl's body shape and personality are ever identical, no girl will ever have the same style. Not precisely.
So for me, it isn't about imitation, or rebellion. It's about adaptation of trends, modern and classic to fit form.
My main focus, then, will be on evaluating trends, DIY, and keeping fashionable on a low budget. But some of my other interests include a fascination for small businesses. So I've decided that I'm going to sprinkle in features and interviews with local artisans starting their own lines.
Hope you enjoy my exploring! :D
