A Journey with NIVA Hankede
The Buzz Magazine Style
Style.
I strongly feel Style is unique to each person ... the way I would wear a denim jacket? Completely different from the way anyone else would... it's that perfect balance that makes you say; 'Yes, this is it'
'Style can’t be taught, so if anyone tried to adopt it, I can guarantee it won't look the same, or won't last. That's one of the reasons I can never answer the question; 'How do you dress or can you show me?' I don't know what made me dress that way - BUT IT FELT RIGHT.
'Style is comfortability. No matter how low-key your clothes may look, if you are genuinely comfortable in them, that's your style right there. It doesn't matter how expensive your leather jacket was, or how refined your suede on your boot is, if you keep fidgeting at an event - adjusting your clothes each second, or looking out for compliments, you are trying too hard and that's probably not even your real style.
Somebody that is channeling his true or inner style, hardly expects compliments from people, he or she most likely already complimented him or herself before leaving the house. Most of the times, Style is purely accidental. Personally, I don’t plan out my outfits. I've heard people say they are getting prepped for an event a whole day before. Me? I love to take risks. My outfit planning starts immediately I'm done moisturizing, that's when I ask myself what I'll wear. My outfits are hardly premeditated. That's how I know it's my style, because it's effortless.
There aren't enough numbers in this world to name each and every Style. Style can't be bought, sold, stolen or transmitted ... it’s just the real YOU.
