Style icons

I always say I have amazing friends, its great when you have people around you supporting to do better. All my friends are very fashionable and they are my style icons. When I started this blog I said I am going to look at people that inspire me in my fashion sense both internal and external. I have decided that this month that Shade, Margaretta and Mary are my style icons. Why are you asking? Simply because I love their individual fashion sense they make it work for their own body shapes.

I love their everyday fashion sense but what I really love and respect from each them is when they use a traditional material and make a modern outfit from it. To me they are saying look we don't all have to conform to a particular image to be classed as stylish. couple of months ago I said its like we have lost our individuality within fashion, to me there is no point of 10 people all looking the same, all acting the same, all liking the same I look for 11th that says I am different, I have my own sense of style.

Like I said previously that I truly believe that style, fashion, body image, is understanding who we are have the conviction to express it. For me personally this is what these beautiful ladies have and do.

In the “what is beauty” post I said that young people need better role models that it’s like we are condition the youth to believe beauty must look and behave in one certain way. Sorry but NO, if you ask me beauty is these three ladies, as the love, respect, understand their internal fashion this is what I call role models not the celebrities that if they don't like the way they look they get airbrushed. No real individual women, that learns and works on their internal fashion first and then when it comes to external fashion it becomes effortless. For these reason they are my style icons luv ya chickens. xoxoxo
