2 : a uniquely attractive quality: style –Merriam-Webster
When I set out to launch this site, I knew the one common criteria each person, place and thing I wrote about would need to meet; they would need to have flair.
Why flair? Flair is that intangible extra that makes the ho-hum extraordinary.
Anything can have flair. Mother Nature has flair. Many women and men I’ve met both in my professional life as a fashion editor/writer and in my personal life have it. Objects can exude flair too.
But having “flair” isn’t necessarily about being stylish. People who have flair see the world from a unique viewpoint. And they apply their “flair” or talent to whatever they do. Flair can encompass beauty, humor, grit, compassion—the list is endless.
The best thing about flair? It makes your life better. More enjoyable. Nuanced. Sublime. Flair can upgrade your everyday.
So welcome to The Flair Index, a platform that features people, places and things that embody that elusive trait—in obvious and sometimes not-so-obvious ways.
I hope that you enjoy the site as much as I love sharing it with you.
