Fashion inspires me because of its versatility. I don't feel as though I have to fit into a certain bucket or category, because I can make fashion work for me. In the last few years, the creativity that I've seen, especially by lesser known brands, helped inspire me to lose 55 pounds so that I can feel amazing about my body, whether I'm wearing beautiful clothes or not.

Liked and followed! I love fashion because it's an opportunity to express yourself and is an art. Fashion is inspiring as it's really about personal expression - how each woman wears an item is totally different and speaks volumes about their personality. In terms of bathingsuits and beachwear, fashion is amazing! I am a warm weather girl and there is nothing better than waking up in the morning and throwing on a bikini and sundress and starting your day with the warmth of the sun on your skin.

I think that fashion is a great form of art, the kind that can transform your mood, let your imagination run wild, bring joy to your heart! When I wear something beautiful, I FEEL beautiful. I love the different textures and colors of fabrics, the way dresses flow in the wind, the way all elements come together to create beautiful looks. From shoes, jewelry, sunglasses and hats to dresses and of course SWIMSUITS...I LOVE IT ALL..It truly bring me joy to see beautiful fashion and especially to wear it. I am inspired by beautiful things around me every day to create fashion, I draw all the time! I say to myself "Ahhh, this sunset is beautiful, look at all the colors nature creates, this would look beautiful on a flawy summer dress!". I often daydream about being a fashion designer..maybe one day..;)

Liked OYE and I've been following you on twitter:) My favorite thing about fashion is it not only reflects your moods, feelings, and inspiration but you can change your fashion and syles as often as your moods, feelings, and inspirations change. The versatility of fashion is what makes it so much fun and wonderful!

I don't have facebook but I want to enter anyways!! :D
My mermaid fashion is inspired by...
O* Ocean waves lapping on the shore,
Y* Yellow sunshine rays peeking through my door,
E* Ever ready bikinis in my drawer (but still wanting more!)
S* Swimsuits that hug and enhance each curve,
A* Almighty summer heat making my hips swerve,
L* Luxuriating by the pool while being served h'or d'oevres!
L* Long summer days and summer moons to observe...
Y* Yes yes yes to a chic new bikini I deserve!!

I am inspired by fashion because it is not something that exists in clothing only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street. It has to do with ideas, the way we live, and what it happening around us. Fashion is about all kinds of change.
What truly inspires me about fashion is how it has opened up in recent times. There’s been this whole media explosion that has allowed people to become their own journalists and their own editors. Things like blogs are continuing to gain in popularity and this has been so great to see! Fashion has always been important to women. But now, it’s even more of a mode of self-expression. It’s become so democratized! For this reason, it’s become something I continue to appreciate more and more every day.
Thanks for all the giveaway opportunities Tala! xx
