The Influencers ~ Steve Stoute

Another installment of the great Influencers series featuring Steve Stoute, founder and CEO of brand management firm Translation. I laugh at the fact that when I thought of Steve Stoute, the first thing that came to mind was the incident some years ago when Puff (Diddy to most of you) assaulted him with a champagne bottle over a major misunderstanding.

Intel Visual Life - The Sartorialist

Many of you are already familiar with Scott Schuman's work via his now renowned blog The Sartorialist. Scott's blog has become the standard that helped start a movement of street photography that focuses on style. Scott can be seen anywhere from the streets of Manhattan all the way to Paris photographing some of the most eclictic and stylish inhabitants for our viewing pleasure.

I've never been the snazziest dresser coming up but I always tried to make it a point to rock the hell out of whatever I was able to. This is very important when defining your style. It has nothing to do with WHAT you are wearing but everything to do with HOW you wear it. It's about knowing who you are, being confident, and being able to walk into a room with $1 in your pocket but feeling like a million bucks. A huge part of Creative Silence is making light of the fact that while fashion does have its place, our true job is to bring out your personal style, regardless of what you are wearing. Style also doesn't only have to deal with clothing, it can be the way you walk, the music you listen to, the way you drink your coffee, sketch, paint, write and so on. All these things can encompass style and it is up to you to define it. 

However you personally incorporate style into your life, whatever you do, do it your way and find your voice. Set yourself apart and leave no questions as to what makes your style yours.
