QuestionI'm 11 years old. How can I follow fashion trends?Community AnswerWhen you're following fashion trends, it can be frustrating if you don't have the time, money and opportunity to try out the latest fashions for yourself. Think of it this way - you have a great opportunity now to try out creative fashion options that older people with jobs and other commitments often can't! Using your favorite designers for inspiration, consider looking into thrift stores in your area to create unique looks. Remember, the style blogger Tavi Gevinson was about your age when she started her hit blog chronicling her fashion adventures. Good luck!
