What Your Style Says About You.
Style is one of the most intricate forms of communication. Although style is not limited to communication, it is at the crux of what your personal style has to offer. Your unique style can create a powerful first impression. It can also act as a conversation starter or icebreaker. Personal style can indicate that you are approachable and outgoing, or the very opposite. For example, an outfit comprised of a classic black pencil skirt, a bold complimentary coloured top tucked in with a coordinating belt, and a pair of striking heels…and you may just hear, “ I love your outfit, where did you get your…?,” more than once. There is no easier way to build a rapport with a person, than by sharing your fashion secrets.
Style is empowering because it allows you the freedom to choose what aspects about yourself that you wish to express and emphasize. The possibilities are unlimited. Your favourite attributes, colours, music genres, work environment, recreational activities, personality traits (i.e. detail-oriented, down to earth, etc.) can all be inferred by what you wear.
Style does not have to be static, nor should it be. It is as dynamic and fluid as the chapters in one’s life. It can evolve and mature into a creative masterpiece. A key aspect is that style is as multidimensional and unique as each individual. Each distinct style is like a signature that enables you the ability to communicate on your own personal level. Most importantly, being the master of your own style can not only make a first impression, but can leave a lasting impression!
