💎Style vs. Fashion

💎Style is your lifestyle or personality while fashion is an impulse.

💎Style is you.
Fashion is an industry.


💎To be fashionable you have to live up to other people’s expectations. With style you’re only living up to your own.

💎Fashion is a timestamp while style is what you can wear today, tomorrow, and forever.

Is it better to be fashionable or stylish?
