Is fashion influenced by Hollywood? When we see a popular celebrity wearing an amazing outfit, is it the latest trend? The editors of fashion magazines may think using famous people will influence "what's hot and what's not." But what's HOT on a model may be a NOT on many people!

I think there are many factors that sway us in certain directions when we go shopping. Ethnicity may be an influence. In certain cultures you have to dress a certain way. Showing a lot of leg may not be appropriate. Obviously how you are built is going to affect what type of clothes you buy. What a celebrity wears and looks incredible in may look unflattering on you. Money is a monumental influence when buying clothes. Most of us don't make millions a year and therefore can't afford to shop in the boutiques or stores our favorite actresses or actors frequent.

Even if we like what the hottest stars are wearing, why would we want to copy them. The marvelous, fun part of shopping is the statement we make when we put an outfit together. It doesn't have to be a loud statement; just a subtle one that shows our individuality. If we dress just like Lindsey Lohan or Ashley Olsen we still won't resemble them. When you see your favorite star on the cover of a magazine, it's enticing you to buy that particular issue, which is exactly what the company wants you to do. Inside will most likely be a fashion spread featuring what the "It Girls" are wearing. In my opinion, use it as a guide and then tweak it with your own personality.

I like to be fashionable, comfortable, and not spend an absurd amount of money. There are many stores that sell the latest in stylish clothing for a very reasonable price. Old Navy, The Gap and The Loft are some. You can buy jeans, T's, clothes for the office and still have money left over for shoes.

I enjoy the magazine ads and TV commercials that feature beautiful celebrities. Maybe on occasion I will be influenced to buy a bracelet I see. But as far as clothes, I think I'll stick with what looks good on me. Maybe my low-rise jeans with the stitching on the back pockets and weathered longer length t-shirt with flip-flops to match, will influence someone's fashion style.
