What Is Fashion?








Dictionary.com defines fashion as:

1)The prevailing style or custom, as in dress or behavior
2)Something, such as a garment, that is in the current mode: a swimsuit that is the latest fashion.
3)The style characteristic of the social elite: a man of fashion

To some, fashion is art. To others it is almost a religion. I consider it both: Art, Religion & Lifestyle. Realistically, fashion demonstrates the characteristic of one self. Every morning I'm in my closets making decisions. Depending on the day, it can take from 15 minutes to almost 1 hour to decide what to wear. Then there's other people that take the time by doing it the night before. Now, what if I were in their shoes? By the time morning comes around, my mind is set on something else, which means I would have to start all over again. Which also mean more decisions!lol. I don't mind..

Fashion statements can be made with clothes, accessories, shoes, hair, makeup, even your cellphone. I tend to make my own fashion statements with a wow factor!lol. I crave for leggings with cute tops, and blazers with 6 inch heels that complements a purse. Then adding jewellery as the cherry on top of an ice cream sundae. It's tasteful, clean and very classy. Others like the attention by showing off too much skin or looking like a train wreck. At the end of the day, a person can be a disaster or Miss Fashion Icon, but a fashion statement never fails. I view it as the most memorial moments are the first impression of a person. To me, Lady Gaga is a walking/singing state of the fashion art masterpiece. With her voice and outrageous outfits, she's on top of the world! Then again, her outfits can be a little too much, but we're still here talking about her. We will talk today, tomorrow and for always.

There's no pressure or stress, just thoughts, determination and achieving your goal. Let's put it this way, if it weren't for Lady Gaga's bizarre outfits, she wouldn't be where is she now. She'd be another pop princess just like the rest of them.
