Happy birthday to the original rule breaker and style maven, Madonna! The Material Girl has never been one for conformity, making her own rules in love, business, family, and fashion. And nothing could be more refreshing. In an industry that tells us all how to look, dress, and behave, Madonna has brazenly set her own rules for living.
She’s still quite an inspiration for girls and women everywhere looking to have their unique voices heard. No matter your musical style preference, I hope we can all agree that a confident woman who fearlessly makes her voice heard is still something to aspire to. Let’s celebrate the birthday girl with a look back at some of her most noteworthy fashion choices.
