What’s your definition of fashion?
Fashion is something that allows a person to look their best you feel your absolutely best and by this you hold your head up and higher and have pride in yourself. It is a form of free speech since people can recognize your personality just by the type of clothes you wear. It’s a mirror of sorts in the society. Fashion is a way of measuring moods that can be useful in many aspects, culturally, socially and even psychologically. It’s is a way of expressing my taste and preference and it normally gives me a good sense of style and ability to look great Everytime. I love Style, Culture, Beauty, Talent and Inspiration..It’s a style of living in .e and that’s why I find myself interested in fashion always.
