To say that I am a slave to fashion would actually be pretty comedic to many people who know me. This does not mean that I do not like nice clothes and quality materials. What it means is that I have my own fashion sense. While I am a fan of t-shirts and short, when the occasion calls for it I am happy to don a nice wool suit and fashionable dress shirt. I appreciate the versatility in my fashion.

I don’t subscribe to GQ or Details version of what they try to tell everyone fashion means. For me, fashion is very personal, not formulaic. I am a fan of expressing one’s personality through fashion. I think the new Ed Hardy line by Christian Audigier fits my personality. I appreciate the graphic design element and the use of color in the prints. The image to the right is one example that I appreciate. It is very reminiscent of a Santana album cover (and I love that.)

Just because some fashion magazine or television commercial tells you something looks good or is in style, it does not necessarily mean its true. Be yourself in what you do. Being a sheep just means that others are making decisions for you. Isn’t it better to make decisions for yourself?
