Fashion Blog #1- Trends

I was thinking about what to write in my first blog and what came to mind is trends and trend setters. I think it is interesting the trends that circle the style elite and how consumers pick up on those trends so fast! The people wearing the clothes and setting the trends are usually celebrities and I am not sure if that is because they are already in the public eye or because they are trend setting and that's why they are in the public eye. I don't consider myself as a hard core trend follower but I do find myself latching on to certain trends. I also notices that once I like a trend I tend to stick with it even after it is long gone. I know UGGs are debatable but that is one shoe I will always hold on to. I love them! But I haven't caught onto the trend of wearing them with shorts...don't know that I will ever approve of that. Its just not functional. Anyway back to the subject. Trends like the caged shoes we talked about in class and feathered hair pieces are extremes in my opinion. I think it takes a certain person to pull of the caged look or the presence of a bird in the hair. Enough blogging for today! I need to evaluate further how I feel about trends. :)
