MY OWN STYLE

I think I don't really have a style like poeple of some youth groups have it. My style's quite normal I think. For example my hair, which looks the same since years, however I don't want a new haircolor or a new cut cause I like it as it is. Also my clothes are not very exceptional.
I prefer to wear Jeans and T-shirts most of the time. It's quite typically for me that I wear my clothes upon the other, which’s called "Onion-look" in German. I like the combination of shirts with T-shirts and trousers with skirts. Most of my clothes are colorful but also black’s a coulor that becomes to me. I also like to wear embellishment, which I often take as a souvenir from holidays. I already have a lot and some quite special things. I like to look trough fashion magazines and also go to fashion shows, which inspirates me. I’m a fan of traditional clothes like liveries and I would really like to have a churchgoing outfit, like we had it in the past although I wouldn’t wear it (here in Austria) because I think I’d look like "Mickey Mouse" in a Western film. I think it looks interesting to wear some "oriental" clothes in combination with our "normal" clothes and I really like it when people have their own style or wear traditional clothes of their country. So I'm a person who prefers to mix styles.
Other than the mentioned also my outlook on life is quite “mixed”.
For example when I think about religion. I am a Catholic but I don't feel like one, nevertheless I don't want to have a other religion. It may seem a little bit strange but I have my own religion.
I like some ideas from Buddhism for example but also from Islam or Jewery. I take out the things I like, but them together and mix them; it’s like mixing a cocktail.
Trough all my life I was "something between".
As regards to my notes, my outlook and also my favourite style of music. I'm not a fan of hip hop or rap but nevertheless there are some songs from these styles of music I like. So all in all I’m a hotchpotch from tip to toe. Maybe that’s the reason why I'm so liberal opposite to other cultures and styles and why I would never ever say your style of music or clothes, your religion or ideology isn't good or isn’t right". All of the things I mentioned influence me, which is good because in the end that's what makes me who I am and that's what I love about myself.
That's Anja.
