The term fashionista can be described as a person devoted to fashion and clothing, particularily unique pieces or high end fashion. A person that should NOT be called a fashionista would be someone who obsessivly follows trends. Us REAL fashionistas do not believe in trends. That is rule #1 in the ‘How to rule the world as a Fashionista’ (not an actual book, but it should be!). A dedicated fashionista truely appreciates her individuality, and is constantly looking for the exotic, bizarre and offbeat pieces to accentuate her, admittedly sometimes corky sense of style.

But it’s not always about being the most shockingly dressed at a party or event. You can be as vibrant or as subtle as you would like, and still be able to call yourself a fashionist. That’s the beauty of this lifestyle. It‘s all about creating YOUR own indivdual style and being comfortable in your own skin, not trying to look like anyone else but yourself!
