What is Fashion, What is Style.

Hi guys,
So! This is my first actual post on the blog and I want us to start with fashion and style in general. Lol of course we all have an idea on what fashion is, I mean, we wear clothes don't we? But still being sure won't hurt :)
Clothes are actually meant for covering ourselves up in some sort of way but fashion and style have modelled this simple reason into an art. Over the centuries it has become a channel for aesthetics, self expression,  creativity, and communication just to mention a few. You can have an idea of the kinda person someone is just by looking at how they're dressed. Let's create this scenario in our heads, you're say chilling in KFC having a snack by 11:00am because you're bad like that Lol and a guy walks in and he's all suited up, you can begin to guess the kind of place he's coming from or going to. Exactly!  He hasn't said anything y'know, you only saw his clothes.
But then, wearing clothes is a norm, fashion goes deeper than just that. Fashion is an art of personal self expression,  it is a reflection of who you are. When you come think of it, it really is. Fashion revolves. It's a cycle, things that were worn back then in the 20s can be seen becoming the trend in the 90s, but something makes the difference and that's Style.
Your style is your personal approach to fashion. If I take 2 ladies out shopping and I buy the exact same things for them, the difference between how they wear those Same things is their personal style.
Figuring out your personal style makes fashion much more comfortable and fun, not trying to obey a set of rules like you'll get shot if you don't, Lol well with time I'll try my best to help those of us that haven't already figured that out do so. Trust me, fashion gets boring, stressful and tiring if there isn't that personal style driving you. It becomes like taking  the Pharmacology lectures I'm taking this year, they are the worst :(
You don't even have to buy the most expensive clothes to look impeccable, that's what style does for you.
So on here we'll be talking about a host of interesting stuff, trends, lookbooks, fashion tips, and collections my work included, What's HOT and what's NOT, and gist chipped in here and there. Lol I'd really love it if you're Involved. Yeah, You!
Feel free to comment, suggestions are very welcome,  let's make this work.
Byee guys. And yeah I have something amazing In store for my next post .. and Lagos fashion and design week in a week!!!!! :D..  Lol Adios. Stay stylish and don't stop slaying.
