It's funny...maybe it's just my personal style that's off, but I doubt it. Glamour has these monthly "Do's" and "Don'ts" that show women wearing styles that should, or should not, be worn. But this month, I would certainly not wear some of their "Do's"! For example: Long dresses. I know they're trendy right now, but to me they're a bit too hippie. Wearing face tees that showcase your favorite celeb? Not so much. Then there's the political statement tee: Glamour says it's a "do" but I say it's a "don't" simply because I don't think fashion (or any of the arts for that matter) should become a political statement. Again, that's just me.
The "Do's and Don'ts" page has been around for a long time...and it's provided me with a chuckle here and there by what some women will actually wear when they shouldn't, and made me admire some women who have a great sense of style. But, I think it's important to always remember that it's about an individual's personal style, not the editor's. So I'm not afraid to disagree from time to time!
