And do you know what I realized... PERSONAL STYLE isn't categorical. It doesn't live inside any one box (preppy, classy, outdoorsy, hippy, etc.). PERSONAL STYLE is a reflection of who I am on the inside. And who I am on the inside is complex, dynamic, ever-changing, and sometimes even contradictory!

AND THAT'S TOTALLY NORMAL! 

If I don't want my clothes to feel like a costume, then I have PAY ATTENTION to how I feel, and how I want to feel. 

It's an INSIDE JOB! And I AM THE GOLDEN THREAD!!
