According to most people, I probably don’t have a lot of “style”. I don’t follow the latest fashion trends. I don’t spend money on the most popular designer fashions. But I gotta say, I like my style, because it is unmistakably me.
I’m a blue jeans and t-shirt, flowered Dr. Martens, coffee-drinking, Pentax-shooting, cheap aviator sunglass wearing kind of girl. I like to roll down the car windows and sing along loudly (and probably badly) to the radio. I like to strike up conversations with strangers in the grocery store. I smile easily, laugh often, and let most of life’s little annoyances just roll off my back. I believe in miracles. I like to walk in the rain. I see things that a lot of other people don’t (or don’t want to) see. I love deeply, dream often, and hope that when I leave this world, I’ve done something to leave it a better place.
So, maybe my style isn’t exactly what some other people think it should be, but it’s mine, and I’ll proudly own it.
Now, tell me, what’s your style?
I like your style 🙂 I also like that Pentax you got there!
Thanks Rob! I’m a Pentax Girl for life! 🙂 The K-7 was my first DSLR. I shot with my old film K-1000 until film got waaaaay too expensive. I’ve since upgraded to the K-5iis and LOVE it!
It’s a tricky thing! I wouldn’t have said I was much for fashion last month, but I went on a shopping spree and I have to admit, it feels freaking awesome wearing new clothes and redesigning yourself a little bit. It’s nice to dress classy, and I will suggest that fashion may be fickle, but it’s still relevant to our culture and to our lives, and there’s no shame in following it lightly and with a grain of salt. Having good taste is always in style.
I do like your photograph up there, that’s a nice assortment of essentials. I am a cheap aviator wearing sunnovabitch as well, and don’t regret it for a second. Keep your style girl! But don’t be afraid to try new things, even just for the sake of it =)
As much as I HATE shopping, I do admit if always feels good to try something new and broaden those fashion horizons. I draw the line at stiletto heels and purses though. That’s just never going to happen. 🙂
