Fashion, feminism and food are just a few of the crucial things that unite women all over the world. Women everywhere use fashion as means of self-expression, work towards betterment of the womankind and occasionally sneak in that extra donut (yes, we all do it!) There is always an unspoken understanding among women, no matter which part of the world we’re from, and there is always something we can learn from each other.
