Something about items of clothing that are out of the ordinary are so inspiring and liberating to me. I love these words of wisdom from Second City Style: "And so, I encourage you to try something different, try on something you never thought you would and see that sometimes, taking a fashion risk can really shake things up."

I've been thinking about this a lot lately - how much power what you choose to wear has on other's impressions of you, and your impression of yourself. How taking risks challenges you to expand your horizons and grow. My interest in vintage clothing as of late has a lot to do with my hope of being unique, discovering my true style, and expanding on the fashion and style visions I currently have.

Isn't it a fun journey. That is what I love about fashion. There is never a dull moment as there are endless ways to express yourself.

My dilemma has always been finding something that accentuates the positive. I could easily be one of those ladies in the don't do this section of a magazine.

All-in-all I remind myself to try and have fun with fashion. And you are a good role model for me. :)
