OOTD: Fashions Fade, Style is Eternal (GFW 2013 throwback)


Graduate Fashion Week 2015 is coming to an end today, but before I show you what I wore this time (only attended 1 day, catwalk photos are on my instagram @magdarling) I figured it would be a good opportunity for me to show you one of my outfits from GFW two years ago.

 Why would I post such an old outfit now you might ask. Well the main reason is that I'd still wear the same look today exactly how I did it then, which in turn makes me want to talk about the trends
 versus style debate. Yves Saint Laurent once said that "Fashions fade, but style is eternal." and I couldn't agree more. I'm all for new trends and I'm not afraid to try new things but I'd never blindly follow new trends if they weren't something I liked or something that would suit me. I know what I like and what looks good on me and whenever I buy something new I make sure it's something that will fit in with my already existing wardrobe even if it's a bit of an experiment for me. All this means that I wear and love my new clothes pretty much as much as clothes I got 2, 3, 4 or even 5 years ago. All I'm saying is: Enjoy fashion but always stay true to yourself, it will lead to less impulse buying and clothes that you actually wear and not just keep at the back of your closet.
