Interior and clothes designer, Aimee Song’s fashion blog SongOfStyle is definitely one of the fashion blogs you should follow. Aimee Song ensures that she makes her mark in everything she does. Her fashion brand “Two Songs” is evidence of this. Like most fashion gurus, her style comes across as effortless while still fashion-forward. Her look is polished and put together even when she is her lounge wear. Her style exudes youth and audacity. Just like those before her she is not afraid to express herself, and neither should you.
Fashion is a tricky thing. It is subjective and particular to the individual. It is as if each garment thread strand is used to tell a story about the person wearing it. Each fashion blogger has their own particular story to cater to each body type and style.
