Today I feel like breaking some fashion rules. I like to wear bohemian influenced outfits throughout the year.  Not every day, but I dont want something as simple as the season to hold me back from wearing a comfortable and feminine style that feels just right to me.

Get The Look: Peachy Keen Hippie

While Im going to break some fashion rules today, Im going to keep with the hippie mindset and do so in a gentle way. Pastels are usually reserved for the warmer months, but I found this Haute Hippie peach silk dress with little studded embellishments.

Tattoo is one of the oldest ways of decorating the human body. In the prehistoric era the tattoo usually drawn for the special members of the tribes – it was a privilege of shamans, chiefs, skillful hunters.

Each tattoo of that time was carrying a special and deeper meaning. Ancient Indians have noted a sign on the body of the defeated enemies. In Egypt, the tattoo could be just the pharaohs and priests. In Japan, drawing on the body marked the most respected and attained the master’s martial arts school teachers.

In ancient Mesopotamia, the woman without a tattoo on her body could not be considered beautiful.

By nature, every woman is a feminist, even if she doesnt realize it.

Working in fashion can be difficult for a feminist.  Today, I wrote about the newest blogger network created by one of our favorite glossies.  This one happens to be created by Glamour.  Its a lovely network and its nice to see the glossies embracing the digital age, adding style bloggers into the mix.  But, I still see a problem.  Through feminist eyes, its still their vision and a very narrow view of fashion and beauty.

Writing that article today struck a nerve for some reason.  I found myself thinking about my college sociology classes and some of the powerful feminist professors I had the honor of learning from.  Those women shaped me and how I see the world and the women in it.  They opened my eyes to a more diverse view.

I get goosebumps thinking of it really because it makes me see what a long way we have to go.  Weve come a long way baby, but we have miles and miles to go before we are all accepted and respected.
