I just started as a reviewer for a site and am worried for that first negative comment and don't know how I'll react. One another note - I love the outfits you put together, especially the blinding color one - you and the outfit look great!

That's totally what I was thinking when I read the original comment, as well as this post. I get SO much inspiration from this blog and my style is pretty "safe" as well. But what I love about Painfully Hip is the balls-out originality and confidence in the outfits I see. And a celebration of all shapes and sizes and highlighting clothes everyone can afford. It's great and I love the dialogue this post has created. Elyse, I could not have said it better myself. That’s totally what I was thinking when I read the original comment, as well as this post.

Honestly, I don't know much about fashion. I think fun clothes are fun, but more often than not I find myself having to wear more practical, boring clothing. I guess most would describe my style as "safe," though I always try to have at least one interesting piece of clothing on at a time to keep people guessing (and to make myself feel special). All the same, while I understand (and applaud!) your reaction to your criticism, it upsets me that someone would bother to criticize you (or anyone) on your style. I mean really. Isn't it all about not only wearing something that expresses your personality, but also something that you're comfortable in? And that's practical for your lifestyle? In conclusion, I love the outfit that was criticized, but I also love the outfits you're wearing in the above pictures. And even if I didn't care for them, it doesn't matter, because you're wearing what YOU want to wear and each outfit expresses an aspect of your personality in some way or another. Also, $1 for those boots? Amazing! I just started reading your blog a few weeks ago, and I think that your style is fantastic. Honestly, I don’t know much about fashion.
