What Is Your Personal Style?


Good afternoon;

      What is your personal style?  Looking through fashions in magazines and out on the streets it is enjoyable to make a connection between what you see and styles that you have chosen in the past, are wearing right now or hope to wear in the future.  My hope for this piece is for you to make connections to the various styles.

The country style consists of cowboy boots, denim, suede, plaid, corduroy, button up shirts, equestrian, vests, short shorts and white cotton.
