I don't think I have the confidence to pull off really avant garde things or neon colors, and I'm just not drawn to those styles anyway. When I look in the mirror and I am happy with my outfit, I'll wear it.... though if there are some rocking avant garde shoes with a $10 price tag, I will totally give it a whirl. Shoes are a whole 'nother arena for me :)Meg the Grandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05505371880343451606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085460962084910879.post-6451780786309696032012-08-28T22:44:01.723-07:002012-08-28T22:44:01.723-07:00Yeah, I am the same way.

I always thought that I would like shift dresses and slimmer styles, however I am always wearing the fitted bodice with the fuller skirt (I think it's called the fit and flare....but don't quote me!)<br /><br />Also, about the typo, don't even worry about it :P My husband tells me I am the "grammar nazi" because I correct out four-year-old's grammar, but if you read through my blog there are typos EVERYWHERE!!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15220684674220530691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085460962084910879.post-79298668674871533862012-08-28T14:21:35.161-07:002012-08-28T14:21:35.161-07:00Sorry my brain has turned to mush .

I like to make clothes because I like the construction aspect of it. Having a finished product that is flattering and wearable is great too. I think sewing has aloud me to grow more in my own style rather than to follow trends. ANd because I sew, I spend more time deciding what I will wear (just in planning a garment) and as such, I am less vulnerable to trends.
