The ever changing world of Fashion is what makes the world go round. I mean everyday there's a new craze, whether it be Harem Pants or Tartan checks, there's always something new. Working in the retail industry, I see many customers who are after the latest craze to relate to their fave celebrity. Not all celebs are glamed up in Christian Dior, Vera Wang, Jimmy Choo or Vivien Westwood. Many celebs such as Fern Cotton and Alexa Chung dress in Topshop and Urban Outfitters... Not the Crem da la Crem of High Fashion, But these two icons can defo work it!

Take for instance, Lady Gaga. She is know for her flamboyant dress sense, which to some can just be weird, but to others a symbol of individuality. Her big bows and luscious locks are key to most of her appearance as well as her makeup. Even Celebrities Such as Rhianna and Christina Aguilera and even Kelly Rowland are dressing to be noticed. This is a big shift to how many women aspired to be the "Marylin Monroe" of the 20th century, but it seems like Lady Gaga is the new Fashionista of the 21st Century.
Personally i would not dare dress so extravagant, as there is a little part of me thinking.. "Hmmm what would my mother say", but i can not dismiss how she can pull of every look that she has ever tried. WELL DONE GAGA!
So what does this mean? do we need to dress like this to be noticed? I believe that even though Fashion is ever changing, it all comes down to the persons own personal touches. Vintage and Newness can work amazingly well together, mixing up brands with garments and key pieces you can find in Camden Market or Brick Lane will also add emphasis to your look.
However wearing items that are all from the same shop can be a bit tricky for example males and their Ed Hardy Hype! I was on my break the other day at work and in the distance I see a male about my age wearing head to toe in Ed Hardy... Now that is just plain wrong, therefore key pieces like a belt or a hat could have worked well with some simple jeans and a plain white tee.. But this guy took it further even his jeans had the Ed Hardy label stamped on the back a definite Fashion NO NO! Minimal is KEY!

Since moving to the Fashion Capital, that is London Town; i have discovered a huge range of people walking the streets. One saying comes to mind, "If you got it, flaunt it". I've seen males dress in pieces that id find in Topshop! I've even seen males asking if a Boyfriend blazer looks good on them! But in all fairness they want to be noticed not for the bad, but for the good; therefore the latest trend is a defo key, but also remember to mix it up with a few vintage items... it will always set the outfit off.
If i was to choose between vintage, High street labels and Designers; i would defiantly mix it up. I mean its all about individuality... that's what makes the world go round!
