A popular opinion that most of us will agree on definitely is the fact that fashion is dynamic. It recycles itself over centuries whether we like it or not. However one thing that remains consistent with fashion is creativity. Over the course of a few decades, styles have changed dramatically but trends from the past have been kept alive.
As far back as the early 80s to the present, your style could be linked to your identity and you are often perceived by what you wear. The fun part is that there are many different ways you could style yourself as derived from the media, fashion blogs, prints or even your favorite fashion icons.
