Soooo many people confuse the terms style, trend, and fashion. So I've decided to give a little clarification and my two cents. :-)
1.Style- (in fashion): personal expression through clothing.
-Your style is a direct reflection of you. No matter what the trends are your style will always be the same, just with different trendy pieces.
2. Trends- any behavior that occurs among a large population
- Trends are merely what's HOT for the moment, some trends last longer than others. (ex. slouch socks were in for about a year, while skinny jeans have been trendy forever)
3. Fashion: the prevailing style (as in dress) during a particular time
- Fashion is just that. What we wear,all encompassing, trends and styles.
So a fashionable person may wear things that are trendy, but they may not have a personal style. They just wear what everybody else is wearing.
A person with style will take trendy pieces and make them work with their personal style. This is what sets them apart from a fashionable person.
Anywho, those were just my little tidbits.
Toodles,
