Let's just take a moment to appreciate ALL of the lovely people who entered our #Reddskinwoman competition! YOU are AWE-inspiring!
We asked "Who is your style icon?". We love that so many of you cited your mothers and grandmothers as being style inspirations to you. Often our first role models are the closest to us and sometime we're not even aware of it. Our earliest memories can be drawn from experiences watching a parents dress up to go out, to work or having fun at a family gathering.
We also asked "What is 'style'?" The words and phrases 'Confidence', 'grace', 'being individual', 'unique' and 'effortless' and 'unafraid' were all used.
We may agree to disagree on who takes the Style crown but there is something about the wearers confidence that shines through any outfit. No matter which size or age you are, body confidence is one of the most effective accessories you can rock!
We've pictured just a few of the style icons that you mentioned. Others were Mexican artist Frida Kahlo for her colourful individuality, German Punk singer Nina Hagen for her unapologetic look and screen siren Lauren Bacall for her classic androgynous style.
Oh - almost forgot... *winks* ...our randomly picked winner of a #ReddskinWoman 'MINI' package is Niola H! Congratulations!
Lets face it, STYLE doesn't follow trends or chase fashion. Style endures the test of time and does whatever TF it wants. And we should too! So wear what makes you feel GOOD! And do so as often as you can! What are you waiting for?
Do you have an item of clothing that makes you feel special? Any particular reason why? Do share ...we'd love to hear about it!
