Art of Style

I LOVE THIS...TO THE FULLEST!

 I have always been the type to never follow the crowd, like literally all my life in some form or fashion i knowingly and unknowingly always seemed to stand out. Whether it be my hair or my clothes, i just never seemed to wanna look like anyone or follow trends as much. As i think of a specific situation, one pops into mind.... i guess.. i was totally t.o'd that i had to literally wear a uniform every single day of school, due to the fact that i went to a Gifted & Talented Junior High 
shout out to Philippa Schuyler for the Gifted and Talented IS 383 located in Brooklyn,NY

anyways.. i had to wear these uniforms like everyday and me wanting to be that creative peacock, i created my very own two-tone tights....no....like i did ..by wearing two different colored or patterned tights and tying each leg not used around my waist ...like a damn waist trainer .. yeah i did that! and started a trend at my school.
ever since then i kinda knew id have an impact somehow, someway in the Fashion Industry.

looking like everyone else has never been a thing for me, i mean if anything i try to not look like anyone else but myself, and even though I'm 31 I'm still in the process of figuring that whole "who am i" thing out, however, i know for a fact after all these years that i am NO FOLLOWER..I only Lead honey..
Being comfortable and confident in who i am and portray to the world, did not come easy for me. Just like almost every woman out here i dealt with low self esteem and confidence when it came to my appearance, mainly because i have always been small. 
small boobies
small booty
legs for days (they used to call me mannequin legs in JHS hated it then..but i get it now)
it was constantly mentioned and put on blast whether it be some rude shit like
"damn girl you skinny"
or something so innocent but annoying as
"you can eat whatever you want and it goes nowhere"
it bothered me so much more then, then it does now...
my stature became my enemy for awhile and as a result due to lack of self-appreciation i was seriously thinking about getting work done. Its crazy because i was shown countless amount of love at home from my parents and loved ones, but for some reason that didn't matter,  now this was like as early as me being 15/16yo, my then adult goal was to save enough money to get my boobs done.
yup
whelp... I'm here to say that it never happened and it won't
as time passed, the Universe placed amazing people and unconditional love in my path, helping me to see my true beauty
we all come from a path that we either laid for ourselves or it was placed before us. the real test is whether we choose to detour or stay consistent,there's nothing wrong with either because any choice made can go either way, its really the trip that makes you , not the road. 

Ive always been a detour kinda chic, that's just my nature. it reflects in my choice of clothing as well as lifestyle. Fashion to me is inclusive, anyone and everyone can achieve it, Style on the other hand, is exclusive to only YOU.
Fashion and Style do however have a lot in common, they are both ever changing 
whether it be due to seasonal, personal, commercial, or habitual reasons.
That is the pure and true beauty of it all.
Fashion and Style are also very dependent on each other, they work hand in hand
You cannot have one without the other, but one will always trump the other
