I am by no means a fashion blogger, but I do eat, sleep and breath everything beauty so I guess fashion just comes with the territory. I am very passionate about fashion and finding "ones style," but I find myself a little self conscious in front of a camera (even though I end up in front of one a lot.)
I was asked by Smartling , a translation software company to help with their Fashion Language Project. They asked "How do different cultures influence your fashion?" I had never been asked a question like that before so I began to go through my closet. What I learned: I am by no means prejudice or even predictable when it comes to my wardrobe. This may sound silly to some but I truly believe that finding "your style" is very important to your own happiness. Personal fashion is a journey, it can go through many phases, you will experience highs as well as lows. Let's be honest: there are a many reasons to ignore you; being poor (for real!) transitioning into post baby-body, learning to be professional while fashionable, staying modest but classy or fear of trying new things.
If you feel beautiful in your skin then you feel unstoppable and you act accordingly. Your children, family, colleagues, friends, peers and you, rely on you so why shouldn't you feel amazing?! I challenge you to work on building a wardrobe that is "you" and work on finding your "style." Your wardrobe doesn't have to be filled with gold and glitter like mine. What makes me sparkle on the inside is to sparkle on the outside. Let your personality, your likes, your dislikes and the world around you inspire you. This is my take on how different cultures influence my closet.
