The One Fashion Rule You Need to Follow

Not a day goes by without an article about the latest trend in fashion whether it's the current 'it' bag, jeans, hairstyle, nail color and the list goes on. Even though we all know that 'latest' trends are trotted out season after season to get us to buy more clothes, we still fall for it every time for fear of being 'out of style'. Oh the horror, what could be worse?

Actually, wearing something that doesn't flatter your body type or work with your lifestyle is worse than being out of style. More importantly, who cares? A woman who is confident in who she is and what works for her would never be a slave to trends designed to part her with her hard earned cash. So what should you do instead?

Wear what makes you happy, it's really that simple. The happier you are, the more confident you'll be. Confident enough to pull off that 'eccentric' but uber 'stylish' outfit that no one else can pull off the way that only you can. How do you think Rihanna and Iris Apfel get away with being called fashion icons no matter what they wear? Because they wear what makes them happy and don't give a damn what anyone else has to say about it.
