Style is a culmination of all of the experiences, values, perspectives, motivations, inspirations, and qualities that is then manifested in our fashion choices. As a part of this site, the Style Concept segment captures my daily style and incorporates styles or trend concepts to convey my style philosophy: 1) Use what you have, 2) Get what you can, and 3) Do what you do.
The “Behind the Concept” feature is the inspirational adjacent to the Style Concepts on the site. With each style concept feature, I will share reflective, inspirational words that seemingly translate into my styling preferences of each respective concept. To accompany Style Concept #60, enjoy “Braving the Cold,” below:
You’ll never realize your best without the test, you’ll never feel the heat of your success until you endure the coldness of your winter. Rather than despising the process of going through something in order to get through something, we must endure the process and brave the cold.
As a symbol of trying times, tribulations, or even those who try it, the “cold” and its accompanying effects is a fixation that is worth rising above, pressing forth, and pushing through to embrace the warmth of our next season. Assumingly, there are varying levels of “cold:” an individual’s cold may not pack as severe of a punch as another’s “cold.” Nevertheless, the warmth of a new season will embrace you, IF you endure, persevere, and brave the cold.
