Play your own tune

Wednesday, December 29th, 2010

This is Anna Della Russo in one of my favorite outfits! I believe that true personal style comes from following your heart and wearing what looks good on you.

Personal Style is like playing the piano. 
First you must learn to play by the rules, 
then you must forget the rules and play 
from your heart.

Is it too late to make a post Christmas wish list?

    I love Anna’s dress. She does have a unique style, she transformed the street into her catwalk and she wears everything with such personality and a big smile on her face whenever she’s photographed. I love that!

    oh how i love your style, doll! it makes me so happy 🙂 that crop top is too cute for words!
    I am the most practical person with my money too. I have been working at 3 jobs and saving my money for a while now, living at home and never ever eating out. I feel guilty for just buying a Starbucks lol. Its like my monthly splurge. To me, the most valuable thing i could spend my money on is traveling, so it wasn’t hard for me to drop $1400 on a ticket lol. I never buy clothes either, haha. I think you should do it to- thats why im here! To inspire others to follow their heart’s desires 🙂 ps. i love what you said about the piano thing.

    kisses

    I love Anna dello Russos dress with the golden belt. I try to find my own style and very often I find it but sometimes I’m still not sure. It is often about some courage because with your style you might not “fit in” but it is better to be yourself and smile than to hide and be upset with it.
    I love dresses and when I wore one in school some years ago someone asked me if I had birthday because of the dress. And it was not even a formal one!
    By now, people like my style and friends often ask me for style advice.
    That showed me that it is worth a lot to find your own style.
