What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word fashion? Is it a designer, expensive clothes that you read about in Vogue? Or maybe red carpet photos?  If you really think about it, what does it mean to you? I think that the word fashion could sound sometimes intimidating to someone who’s life doesn’t exactly evolves around fun shopping trips and flipping through women’s magazines. I’m really talking about myself. What do I know about fashion?

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. To be perfectly honest, I couldn’t even care less about brands, designers, or what’s in right now. If I like it, I’ll wear it and that’s the extend of it. I’m just not knowledgable about the fashion industry and ever changing trends and I am not someone that can put the time and effort into focusing on that. Also I’m someone that appreciates clothes that can be worn to places where normal people go. When I say normal, I mean the rest of the 99% of the population that doesn’t attend red carpet events, award shows, and other parties requiring the latest creations from the top, well known, and fabulous designers. Even if I had a fabulous new dress from Gucci, where would I wear it? To the Zgym? Or maybe for a nice walk around the neighborhood? Oh no, I know! I could just wear it when I’m sitting all by myself by the computer all day…

I just like to buy clothes for a different type of occasions such as the weekend by the lake (which sounds amazing right now), workout time,  day at the office, or the classic dinner and a movie date. I have my own favorite pieces of casual wear just like everyone else that I’ve had for ages and outfits that I will probably wear forever. One them is a classic black v-neck sweater, distressed boyfriend jeans, and black wedges. I just love this combination and I wear it a lot. It’s a no-brainer to me just like a tank top and jeans, or cut offs and flip flops. I know how I feel when I wear it and that makes me feel comfortable. Shouldn’t fashion be all about being comfortable “in your own skin”?
