Blog #1; What is Fashion?

While many may think fashion is deeply superficial, it is something we all deal with everyday. There are a lot of people who say they don't care about what they wear, but they don't realize that the things they choose to wear says a lot about them and their current mood. Of course the more obvious reasons we may wear what we do are because of the weather, religious expression, identification, and for attraction. 

I remember in my last post I put up a quote that said fashion fades, but style is forever and I think I should expand on what that means. A fashion is a style of clothing deemed popular by most people within a country that lasts about 1-3 years. As fashion that comes and goes is known as a Fad. Style is classic. It is your own and is about individualism and self-expression.

Introduction.

"Fashion fades, only style remains the same." These wise words were said by the famous French designer Coco Chanel who has made an enormous contribution in the styling industry. Hi, I'm Alyssa Simon and I have had a lot of interest in the fashion world ever since I was small. In this blog I will blog about different subjects from trends of the season to interior designing to artworks!
