Why Fashion?

Ah, fashion. Every since I was a little girl I was obsessed with trying on different clothes and bugging my mum to let me try new dresses. People who know me find that surprising, cause I am not the cool type. I'm a math nerd and analyst - hardly the type you'd expect to care about what clothes I wear, right? Kinda like when you think of the movie The Devil Wears Prada, that was me in the beginning.

But fashion is so much more than just about looks. It's a way of expressing yourself, of seeing the world. You can tell sooo much about someone by the way they dress, and the brands they wear. Think it's shallow? I disagree. We all (or most of us) pay attention to hygeine, grooming, making ourselves look presentable and so on. But none of that really distinguishes us like the clothes you wear. What you wear really allows you to express yourself and let people know, at first glance, maybe where you come from, what you do and what you're passionate about.

I'd originally planned to post this on my site (OutwitTrade) but figured It'd be better suited here instead :)
