co-sign on the classics comments.
Yeah, sure, I have some trendy items, but usually I find them on sale, or not by a designer name. (no shame in buying non-designer item.. I'm a poor college student.) That way, when the trend is gone.. I didn't waste a TON of money on something. I like incorperating trendy items with my classic ones.. its more fun (for me) to be a little bit trendy, instead of trend-o-rama.

In high school, I wanted a super trendy prom dress. My mother told me no. She said I should go with a classic cut and design, so I wouldn't shake my head at my prom pictures 35 years down the road. I'm glad, that both my Junior and Senior Prom dressed were classic-y. I look at my pictures and still love them, and the way I look. A good friend of mine wore a very trendy dress and she hates her pictures now. Goes to show, for me atleast, THE CLASSICS ARE THE WAY TO GO.
