Communication today is instantaneous. Social media has made a lasting effect upon our thinking and this can be both a good as well as not so good thing about organising the hours in any day.
No longer do we need to depend just on women's magazines that came out monthly rather than weekly to read the latest fashion trends, celebrity gossip, what is occurring on the other side of the world. We hear about these things so quickly now that for many of us, our heads spin trying to take it all in. For "fashion trends" change not only seasonally but almost daily.
Yet many quotations by notable people from years ago are still pertinent today when it comes to fashion particularly.
I'd like to quote Yves St Laurent who said:
"FASHION FADES, STYLE IS ETERNAL"
Instead of chasing fashion trends (which so often don't suit us at all), why not study the effects of "style"? Observe other women and how they dress, whether it be casual or conservative, and see how confident and self assured women use clothing in such a way as to expxress their own individual personality, rather than being part of the "mob". And they do it with a certain panaché.
