So, here's a non-secret. I like pink. And bows. And dresses with ruffles. I'm girly and giggly and feminine, and I've always considered it to be a non-issue. I mean, without getting into the whole feminists vs. the world argument, I'm a little confused these days as to why my "style" is suddenly controversial.
Lost? This article (and this post and this one) got me thinking. Regardless of whether or not you like Zooey Deschanel, she definitely has a style and a brand. I don't know that I copy her, or anyone else for that matter. This past year, I've developed my own tastes and style to a point where I've had friends recognize me from far away because of my high bun and/or bows. These things make me happy and feel comfortable. That shouldn't be a bad thing, should it?
But, I want to know your opinion. Do you think girls dressing this way is a negative thing? I've heard a lot of negative comments lately about it, though not necessarily directed at me. I can say, however, that the confidence I get from truly being me far outweighs any negative impression that others may get.
I wear pearls and high heels and pencil skirts on a regular basis. But I'm also a strong businesswoman with a mind of her own. Would you think less of me if you saw me on the street wearing a bow in my hair?
