you can't teach an old dog new tricks
I'm still wearing the same things I wore at age five. Well, more or less. While the actual clothing items have obviously changed, I have had basically the same style my entire life. From a very young age I always wanted to pick out my own outfits. Some of my best looks featured a black pleather jacket from The Gap. Obviously, I was very cutting edge. Truly though, my style has stayed consistently classic-with-a-twist. On my first day of kindergarten, I rocked a white Ralph Lauren polo with a navy blue kilt. Yes, a kilt. Other signature Emily Grant pieces include a hot pink headband with a larger than life bow, dark wash Gap jeans with leopard-print cuffs, and of course my red leather Dorothy flats. While today, I skip the kilts for pencil skirts, and have moved on from leopard-cuffed-jeans, I haven't wandered too far from my style roots. Today, I'll throw on a white Ralph Lauren oxford, a pair of dark wash Hudson's and some leopard ballet flats. I still gravitate towards classic basics with some cheeky accessories thrown in. I have yet to experience a "what was I thinking?! moment" because I've always had the same narrow mindset when it comes to what I wear. Maybe I'm the only one? Hey, it's worked for me this long.
