Hello my lovely fashionistas! I hope you are staying warm out there, wherever you are.
In order to warm your day up, I’m going to share one of my personal favorite fashion tips with you!

Some of my favorite kinds of accessories are ones for my ears.
I usually never leave the house without a pair of earrings because I feel too plain without them!
But on top of that, I also have multiple cartilage piercings.
I love them because they give me a more intricate look whenever I wear my hair up.
However, some girls don’t like multiple piercings in their ears, don’t like the pain of piercings or even aren’t allowed (I couldn’t get some of my cartilage piercings until I got to college because my mother didn’t approve!)
For these girls, there is a way for you to get a similar look without the pain and effort of getting more piercings.

This fashion trend is the ear cuff.

While some work with cartilage earrings, there are others that don’t require you have extra ear piercings and allow you to get the same look without the difficulty!

Here are a few pictures of my earring cuffs:

Only one of these cuffs requires a cartilage piercing. The other two require just one piercing or no piercings at all! They are cheap, stylish and help you look trendier in the simplest way possible!

Find your own earring cuffs at:
Claire's in store or at Claires.com

So, I often find that the girls who love fashion sometimes feel they are hindered from truly expressing their style.
Many believe it takes money to buy fashion and the more expensive the label, the more "trendy" an item is. WRONG.
This is what I mean about drawing the line between fashion and style. Just because something is covered in designer brand emblems doesn't mean it portrays true style.
Just because a person has enough money to buy themselves a $400 purse and cart it around like a minature puppy does not mean they have style.
True style comes from within and can be anything you love; it is about wearing what makes you happy from head to toe.
Style is about wearing something unique and being true to yourself, even if others don't approve.
Sometimes the cutest outfit you can possibly find is on a sale rack or at a local thrift store, not your pricey high scale fashion boutique.
Although thrift stores may be a scary thought,do not fear, you never know the hidden treasures you can find.
Remember, what makes a great outfit are its pieces.
I have to admit, that is what works for me. I never go out in search for an outfit, I buy articles of clothing a piece at a time and make sure the item can be versatile and isn't good for just a one time use.
For the girl who is drawn to style, you must remember to never let others thoughts affect you.
If a person stares at me like I'm absolutely crazy for what I am wearing, I feel like it is a successful day.
Don't feel embarrased if a person gives you a double take or stares you down. Stick your chin up tall and your nose in the air.
Let them stare, you are clearly a sight to be looked at.
Wear what you want and what makes you feel comfortable. Dress for yourself and no one else.
