Bewildered glances and long stares seem to follow me everywhere I go, but I never mind. I know that my style isn't for everyone and that the margin of people that will "get it" is slim. After all, I'm not trying to blend in. Style is personal and largely subjective - equal parts confidence, risk, and applied principles. While not every trend in fashion should be adopted, an open mind towards new proportions, silhouettes, textures, and colors will keep your look fresh and relevant. If it's been a while since somebody asked you where you purchased your dress or gave you an approving glance, it's time to rethink and refresh.

Even the most stylish fashionista can develop certain habits and become too comfortable. We often limit our options with self-imposed "rules" - "I don't do hats" or "Orange? I'd never wear orange." Maybe you just aren't reaching for the RIGHT hat or selecting an orange that flatters. For me personally, this Spring has been all about challenging myself to try and adopt the unfamiliar. My look is typically "rocker runway" as I like to call it. Although it's edgy and daring, it is sometimes too predictable. Now I'm trading in the dark and severe for amazing pastels (think pale pinks, butter yellows, and Tiffany blues) and neutrals such as soft grays, nudes, and wheats. I drew a lot of inspiration from the Spring/Summer '09 Burberry Ads. Newsboy hats, bow ties, and canvas totes by Marc Jacobs have become staples for the reinvented me.

A pair of Christian Louboutin patent leather peep toe pumps will polish off this new look. Branch out this season. Maybe you just need to give a jumpsuit a try. I love this black sequin jumper by YSL. Experiment with a fantastic gladiator sandal. Or maybe what you need is a new direction entirely! No matter what you choose to wear, wear it with confidence! After all, confidence is the sexiest thing that you could ever dress yourself with!
