Why Some Women Can Wear It All!

t’s like one of the Seven Wonders of the World - how some women seem to look the Fashion Gods in the eye and they just seem to constantly give into their every whim. You know the ones I am talking about, they are everywhere, everyday. On the Bus, in the car beside you, hell their even there as you try to buy a guilt free muffin on your ten minute lunch break making you feel even worse about the fact your leopard print cardigan & leather skirt just doesn’t look the same as when you flicked through the pages of Grazia.

When we come across these women we feeling an overwhelming urge to first of all look them up and down and secondly and crucially either slap them in the face or make them your new best friend (depending on your mood of course). What do they have that we don’t and why oh why does it feel so powerful? They make it seem like the very word ‘trend’ was thought of just to encapsulate everything about them. From skinny leather jeans, to Chanel ballet pumps, from cut off denims to folk mini dresses. It is the girl who can go from red carpet to festival chic with one wave of her magic wardrobe wand. While the rest of us, no matter how hard we try would make a Luella Prom Dress look like an over dressed marshmallow.

We all want to be that girl, where there are no rules only endless possibilities. Where street style & city chic lie side by side in our edgy & envied wardrobe and it is for this reason Fashion is undoubtedly a hugely powerful force. It tells a part of our story to the world, it is about method and madness in one complete look & Some day in the not to distant future we will all be one of those girls…but in the meantime, we will have fun trying!
