Whoever decides seasonal fashion trends is pretty sneaky and powerful. Almost always, a fashion statement that I find bizarre will get into my head until I start thinking it’s actually kinda cute. Then it becomes a favorite. Just like that! I have a couple of really strong fashion-related dislikes that I don’t think will ever change (velvet and paisley…) but for the most part, I try to stay open-minded because I know that in time I might be sucked in.
These are a few of the fashion statements I have unexpectedly fallen for:
I used to always gravitate toward warm neutrals, but last spring when I worked at Gap, I started loving hot pink. A lot. Stores are coming out with a lot of neon shades as it is that time of year again. I’m all about it. I’m not a fan of every neon color and I only like it in small doses, but that could easily change.
I am so happy that the floppy hat exist. It’s the most adorable accessory ever, right? In the past, I only admired floppy sun hats on others. Then one day I decided to become a hat person, and the rest is history.
Have you ever fallen for a fashion statement that you first claimed was awful? It’s a lot like listening to the radio. You’ll think a song is so obnoxious and then once you hear it 10,000 more times, you just might find yourself singing along. :)
