What Makes Us Fashionable?

I've always wondered why other fashion bloggers became so fashionable. I've noticed that many of them have already mentioned that there was a time in their lives where they just weren't concerned with fashion and lived in jeans and t-shirts. I wondered what turned them around to fashion? I know for myself, it started out of necessity. I transitioned from a pre-school teacher, to a bank teller, so I had to step up my game. It was embarrassing but I had absolutely no dresses, skirts, blouses, Nothing! And I went into my job interview in a t-shirt, jeans, and flip flops. Too be fair I thought I was going there to just fill out an application but they called me in for an interview right after they read my application. But still. Another reason why I transitioned was I was only shopping at New York and Company. All the other bank tellers were doing it! Then my manager started purposely buying the same clothes I bought, because she thought it'd be cute. So off to the thrift store I went. And I never looked back. So, ha ha ha!!! After doing that I started looking for inspiration from Lucky Style Spotter and discovered Jessica's blog What I Wore and she became my mentor of fashion.









So I'm interested! What turned you all on to fashion?
