What is your idea of style?
Style is about being comfortable in your own skin and not caring about trends or blindly following fashion. It’s more about knowing who you are and maintaining your sense of individuality. It’s best summed up in this quote “you laugh at me ‘cos Im different and I smile at you cos you’re all the same”. You can buy fashion, style you have to possess innately.
