In the Eye of the Beholder

What is considered fashionable is relative. Question is, relative to what? Relative to the fashion moguls who live and die for couture; relative to the fashion-acclaimed magazines such as Vogue, W, and Cosmo; or relative to the fashion-studded celebs that we all admire? Really, it is the industry that sets the bar for what is considered cutting-edge fashion. So for us, fashion-savvy nobodies, what dictates good fashion? Is it the above, is it your surroundings, like what your friends & acquaintances think, even complete strangers who compliment your style, or a combination of all of the above. I’d like to think, the latter. However, I truly believe that if you feel great in your clothes and if that confidence exudes through your demeanor no matter what any expert or magazine says, then more power to you.
It is a diehard philosophy of mine. Opinions and feedback welcomed.

Okay, I've joined this since you've asked for feedback. Actually, I should thank you for it since this is going to be my new creative outlet for my whimsical rants.
Anyways, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Although I love looking at all these fashion ads on your page and magazines, I would never be able to wear some of the material since it doesn't fit my image.
