👋😍 Hello, FabYOUlous
I've been thinking about something lately...
As I continue writing these Wednesday blogs, you may have noticed something. I really don't talk that much about what you "should" be wearing.
There's a reason for that.
I love fashion. I love putting outfits together. I love accessories. I love experimenting with different looks and styling things in ways that make me happy. But am I a traditional "fashion blogger"?
Nope. Obviously. Lol!
Here's the thing... I don't enjoy telling other people what they should wear, what they shouldn't wear, when they should wear it, or exactly how something is supposed to be styled.
Who am I to decide what's right for you? You know yourself better than I ever could. You know what makes you comfortable. You know what makes you smile when you catch yourself in the mirror. You know what colors you're drawn to. You know whether you want to dress up today or throw on something wonderfully comfortable and call it good.
And most importantly... You're the one wearing it.
So if you love it? Wear it.
If it makes you happy? Wear it.
If someone somewhere decided it's no longer "in style," but you still feel absolutely FabYOUlous in it? Wear. The. Thing.
It's your money. Your body. Your creativity. Your style.
I'm certainly happy to share ideas and show you different ways something can be worn.
But I never want my message to be: "This is how you have to wear it."
I'd much rather say:
"Here's an idea... now make it yours."
I believe the person wearing the outfit is ultimately what makes that outfit pop. You bring the personality. You bring the confidence. You bring the creativity. You bring the YOU.
And maybe that's why these Wednesday blogs keep wandering away from fashion.
We start talking about clothes...
And somehow we end up talking about kindness, confidence, home, trees, perspective, or one of life's little lessons that happened to find me that week.
And I've realized... I like it that way.
These blogs are probably going to be less about telling you what's trending and more about telling you what's on my mind and in my heart. Sometimes we'll talk fashion. Sometimes we'll laugh. Sometimes I'll share something I've learned.
Sometimes life will hand me a little perspective that I wasn't exactly asking for. And hopefully, somewhere in all of it, you'll find something that makes you smile, encourages you, or reminds you to embrace exactly who you are.
That's what I really hope to inspire.
Not for you to dress like me. Not for you to follow every fashion rule. Not for you to become someone else's version of stylish.
I want you to have fun discovering your version. Because fashion should be something we enjoy—not another place where we feel like we're getting graded.
There isn't going to be a pop quiz later. Lol!
So play with it. Experiment. Break a few fashion "rules." Wear the accessory that's a little extra.
Mix things someone else wouldn't. Pull that old favorite out of the closet. Or wear something simple because that's exactly what feels good today.
Whatever you choose... Make it yours.
And I'll be over here cheering you on. 🥳🎉
A Little FabYOUlous Thought:
Maybe personal style isn't really about knowing all the rules. Maybe it's about knowing yourself.
Wear what brings you joy. Style it the way that feels like you. And don't worry too much about whether everyone else understands it.
After all...
The most important part of personal style is the person.
And there is only one YOU.
Until next time...
Be kind to yourself and Be Your Own Kind Of FabYOUlous 💐🙏🦋
