Personal fashion is something that can be difficult for people, so as a society we fall into the trap of wearing what the people around us wear or we follow what that one well-known person is wearing. But by doing that, are we really dressing true to ourselves? One way to start dressing more YOU, is to create your own personal fashion mood board. A mood board is a collage or collection of pictures and items that create a visual representation for yourself. It is basically a large brain dump. In the art/design world, people use mood boards as a starting point for their art or design. For this mood board though, it will be the starting point for your personal fashion. So let's get started!
