A person who has chic style is someone who thinks independently about
fashion. She is confident and self aware enough to know what looks good on her.
She adapts fashion to her style, not the other way round.
This
person is a free spirit. She doesn't like to be showy or obvious. She
likes to keep a little mystery, and by that way, she unknowingly keeps
everyone guessing! She embraces change at the right time and is not one to
sport the same hairstyle for the next couple of decades. She is fresh,
exciting and passionate yet comfortable in her own skin. She likes to
reinvent herself when she feels she needs a change.
My
model for the "chic" theme in my recent photo shoot is Giovanni. I
think the above definition describes her style very well. Over the years I have observed all of the different styles that come into the salon, and each persons unique style gives me a sense of their individual personality. This personal style in turn gives me a sense of
inspiration for their hairstyle.
For
some time I wondered what what did "chic" mean. I have leaped
through fashion magazines HGTV, and clothing catalogs. I have looked at
the images and pictures of various interpretations of "chic." I came to the conclusion that a person that is "chic" is an individual that dresses with a little elegance and class. I also learned that there is a shabby or vintage side of style.
I am
on a quest of looking at my own personal style in comparison to recent fashion trends. I am not trying to change my style or anything because
it is what it is, but I would like to define it on paper. Join
me in this quest and let's take a look through magazines, TV fashion
shows, sight-seeing and online editorials. Stay-tuned to my blog
as I do my research on fashion themes (elegant, chic, classic, modern,
glamorous, sexy,etc...) and learn what the experts are saying. Let's make
ourselves more aware of our place in fashion.
