I dress how I feel like dressing - depends on my mood on that particular day.
My style has no limitations on how creative my outfit can be or how plain it can be.
My most consummate outfit would be some blue skinny jeans, a nice graphic t-shirt with either a cartoon character or a revolutionary saying, a sweater, and my favorite sneakers, Chuck Taylor Converse All-Stars.
But my style as also branches out to outfits that maybe include a bowtie, designer tights, a hat that was probably worn back in the day or my Run DMC glasses.
My attire conveys what I think about myself as a person - that I am an awesome individual who dares to be different. And that’s what I like to do - be different and dare others to be different as well.
The group that I belong to or I identify myself with I would called the “Others.” The “Others” are individuals who choose not to blend in with society but stand out and say something to the world.
Make a statement, even if it is done through a style of dress.
