From the brilliant mind behind The Mindy Project, comedienne Mindy Kaling had an interview with Vogue about dressing for confidence and yourself.

     The article, which you can see here, follows Kaling while she shops with an interviewer from Vogue and describes her thought process when shopping and how she decides what works for her. The thing is, she doesn't go by the "rules" of fashion, whats trending, or what she should wear for her body type. Kaling is a fearless shopping wonder, pulling things that she wants to wear, no matter how people might look at her or think.

     In a video for the magazine, show at the end of the article but which you can also see here, you have to admire her unwavering desire to wear what she wants, no matter how funky:
     At the risk of sounding like every other twenty-something with a dependable cable signal or access to Hulu.com, Kaling is my spirit animal. Though she is being told that what she has on is a great look, she can't help but suggest her demure outfit needs a little more, maybe even a fur bike helmet, or a dress made of chains.

     Kaling employes the idea that has taken me years to realize. Dress for yourself, instead of others. Buy what you feel good in, and you wont care about what people think about you or what you're wearing. Then once you master that, you'll always be fly.
