I am from Texas. Even though my family and I moved to Colorado when I was 9 years old, that southern side of me still exists. I have been feeling the shopping bug lately and today I got to thinking about a store in Texas my mom and I always try to go to when we are there. It's called Dressin Gaudy.
I have been reminiscing about the bright colors and different designs I could buy there and then I thought, why can't I get that stuff here?
It is so interesting to me how the location you are at dictates the fashion you gravitate towards. Really, this is an obvious thought. Of course where you live will decide what you buy fashion wise. However, during seasons like summer, when the temperatures in states like Colorado and Texas are similar, why isn't there more of a variety?
Let's compare Dressin Guady with a popular boutique in Fort Collins, Colo., Cira Ltd.
The outfit on the left is from Dressin Gaudy. Almost all of the colors in this ensemble are bright. The pants are intricately patterned and made to compliment the very pink tank top.
The outfit on the right is from Cira Ltd. This is more of a forest green color. There is a pattern to the dress. However, it is done in black so it does not pop as much as the pants do in the picture to the right. This outfit is also accessorized with neutral colors. The Dressin Gaudy outfit is accessorized with more color.
Both of these outfits are cute and I would buy both of them. It is just so interesting to me that the styles evoke such different tones.
Now, of course there are exceptions to this idea. GG Boutique is one. That store has lots of color and I love it! It's just an interesting thought to realize that, when I shop in Texas, I am looking at a different tone of style than I am when I shop in Colorado.
This is not necessarily an informative post, more of just my way to leave you with something to think about for the day.
