I think in a way, all people follow "fads". I mean, we've all watched at least one tv show, one movie, seen one magazine, and we all have internet here. Every day, you see "strangers" doing and wearing things different than you. Whether it be a celeb or someone walking down the street. This can inspire you to dress that way. Or blend some of that into your style. I mean no one is totally original. We see things and get inspiration. I know, I take my own style from the things I like and the things I see others wearing that seem stylish or classic. I hope that made sense.
