It is a huge opportunity to figure out your own personal style and interests( as opposed to things you do because you are told to) Find out if you actually like the new trends.When you are styling a look, you no more want to impersonate your fashion icon than perfectly copy a trend, Through the assessment process, you should be examining your style and  what you really want.Is it something you want because of what  someone else said or what is working for someone else? It is great to get inspired by others, but trying to be a  replica of someone else never works. Be yourself. Do not copy. But do draw inspiration. Interpret it. If you do so you will be a person with great personal style. And that is the way to make your mark.
