In addition some believe Style is uncomplicated, timeless and not dependent on trends and that true style should be equivalent to culture i.e. a way of life and solely depend on you. Your style should embody all you believe in and all that defines you.
And according to Eguono Agofure of Bella Naija, there is no ‘must-follow’ trend. Have you ever“why is everything recycled?” Why do all the 1920’s, 1960’s and the likes come back? Did you know the empire-waist cut is as old as 1800? Surprised? Don’t be.
A trend is only a word embodying just what it means; “in vogue, the latest, at the moment” and nothing more. So, what happens when all the clothes in your wardrobe are not trendy, in vogue, the latest or at the moment? You revamp your entire wardrobe because you can afford it? Indeed! So how do you determine if you’re truly stylish or simply trendy?
