Style is Knowing Who You Are

“Style is knowing who you are,

what you want to say,

and not giving a damn.”

~ Orson Welles

 

I agree, Orson.

 

I know who I am.

 

I know what I want to say.

 

I know what I want to wear (or not).

 

I don't bow down to the fashion police simply because someone says this or that is "in style."

 

And whether that makes me vogue -- or a fashion reject,

 

frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

 

 

I just saw this banner on the Yahoo browser:

 

 

I didn't bother clicking on the blue arrow. 

 

I'm not looking to "get ahead" of the style curve -- however significant that may be.

 

But if I have to choose among these four styles?

 

No brainer.  I choose No. 4.

 

As for 1, 2 and 3?  Seriously? 

 

Mercy.

 

I'll stick to my own style, thank you.
