Don't Be A Follower

I speak to my daughter all the time about this particular topic and it is one I find children today have almost no concept of and that is being there own person. Now a days everyone looks the same, now don't get me wrong we all have had our trends to follow but put your own twist on it, make it your own. I say this cause, as you can guess, I was not a follower. Name brands were not so important to me. Maybe because I was a military brat. I traveled to many different places and you find the "fashion" for that particular area is different from where I had last lived. I gave up on trying to figure it out and just did my own thing. Some people liked it and some people didn't but I didn't care so much. I thought I looked pretty good and eventually it was not even noticed I was just ME. So I encourage all young girls to JUST BE YOU!! Try to figure out what you like and add a little you to the mix, that way you are not so off the wall but you are still an original. Because who wants to be a carbon copy of someone else? Hey the trends had to start somewhere from someone right? Why not let it be you....
