The Art of Self Expression

Trial and error seems to be the way to go when searching for your own individuality. How will you know what you like if you don’t try different things? Try styles that are out of your comfort zone or styles that you wouldn’t normally gravitate towards. During this time you may be hyper-aware of what others think of you and you need to try and forget about that, in fact, forget about trends or what’s ​in and just enjoy experimenting. Perhaps you’re someone who loves flowers, floral print can be your new best friend. Maybe you have a thing for Victorian dress, and high collared blouses and lace is how you communicate that love. If you wish you were a product of the Woodstock era, then vintage graphic tees, long beaded jewelry and bohemian skirts may be the right move. Think about what moves you, what inspires you, whether that is music, an era or a plant, have fun with it.

We chose Janelle Monáe because she epitomizes the Art of Self Expression.
