I am Ksenia and I am a moxie fashionista.
Moxie:
n. Slang
1. The ability to face difficulty with spirit and courage.
2. Aggressive energy; initiative: "Her style has moxie: she takes fashion by the balls and makes it her own"
3. Skill; know-how.
Fashionista:
A fashionista doesn't look at her femininity as a gender flaw.
Where some may be quick to label her a bitch, others actually take the time to get to know her eccentricities.
Fashionistas see fashion as an art; their own bodies are the canvas, and the sense of style they develope along the way is the masterpiece.
True fashion ("true fashion" as in the clothes and not the thin supermodels that wear them) is an expression of identity.
Fashionistas are:
Knowledgable about fashion, style, and, really, what works and what... just doesn't.
To me, fashion is an appreciation and understanding of aesthetics and that application of it in our lives.
