What Is Style And What Is In-Style

Ever wondered what the difference is between having style and being in style is? Now you can know.

Style - noun

1. a particular kind, sort, or type, as with reference to form, appearance,or character.

In-style - adj.

1. in the current fashion or style.

What is the difference between style and being in-style is the question. This has been long debate, about to be debunked. For fashion girls, we like to say we have 'style', others like to be known as being 'in-style'. So what is the difference anyway?

Style: the way one dresses to express them, on a constant basis. Style supposedly never changes. Style is how one expresses them on a daily basis, whether their style be grungy, classic, or bohemian. Style is how one can identify their 'look'. For some, this may mean wearing the same kind of outfit daily, wearing the same colors, or simply wearing the same brand. Style usually never changes, yet some might wear different styles every week.

In-style: wearing clothing that is on trend at the moment. Being in-style differs from style, with in-style clothing being like a fad. Being in-style isn't about having a certain identity, like style, but following trends and other fashions. Neither are better than the other, because everyone has their own tastes. But having style is clearer idea of what kind of image you want to convey, while being in-style means keeping up with the latest trends.

The difference between the two is pretty simple really. I hope this helps the debate and to clarify the difference between the two fashion terms.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
