A Moxie Fashionista takes fashion by the balls and makes it her own.

Great Outfits: Blake Lively
Although it's not terribly considerate of her to show up at the premiere of a movie starring a famed literary detective, without even a WHIFF of mystery about her person. But, that's our Boobs Legsly. She is nothing if not committed to consistency. She is also rather brave, no? It takes guts to treat your thighs like an end table in a grieving dowager's musty drawing room. But our Boobs is undaunted. She will wear a corset pinned to lace that looks like a mourning veil thrown over some antique furniture. can't you just picture a lamp sitting on her right buttock? -- and she will smile about it, dammit. Although, given that a certain classic holiday movie features a fra-gee-lay lamp in the shape of a lady's leg, maybe she's just being both conceptual and seasonally apt. Mystery solved. Take that, Sherlock.
I am Ksenia and I am a moxie fashionista.
Moxie:
n. Slang
1. The ability to face difficulty with spirit and courage.
2. Aggressive energy; initiative: "Her style has moxie: she takes fashion by the balls and makes it her own"
3. Skill; know-how.
Fashionista:
A fashionista doesn't look at her femininity as a gender flaw.
Where some may be quick to label her a bitch, others actually take the time to get to know her eccentricities.
Fashionistas see fashion as an art; their own bodies are the canvas, and the sense of style they develope along the way is the masterpiece.
True fashion ("true fashion" as in the clothes and not the thin supermodels that wear them) is an expression of identity.
Fashionistas are:
Knowledgable about fashion, style, and, really, what works and what... just doesn't.
To me, fashion is an appreciation and understanding of aesthetics and that application of it in our lives.
