Sitting back browsing fall lines for top designers as I often do, and I started to think to myself, “what makes a person a fashionista?”
Is it dressing with a personal style that no one else has? Is it knowing exactly what Karl Lagerfield is up to these days? Or is it just having a love for design and colors and textures? Maybe it is a combination of all that.
My opinion? Well, I’m so glad you asked…
A fashionista never grabs the top and skirt the mannequin is wearing. A fashionista is in tune to trends and classic styles of her favorite designers. She cares about her personal style but doesn’t have to necessarily wear 12 colors, 13 layers and printed logos of high-end fashion designers to prove that she has a personal style. And most importantly, a fashionista doesn’t give herself the title, she allow those who impressed by her style compliment her with the term.
Now that you know what I think, weigh in. Why do you think you’re a fashionista?
And just for kicks, look at these hot items that represent my personal style.
