Preppy Or Punk

OK, I have been talking alot about Japane-se fashion but I care about American fashion too! If you ask me, fashion is fashion, and shouldn't really be split into sections. Recently I've been asking my self: If I had to be put into a certain group such as "preppy" or "punk" what would it be? And then I realized that I can't be put into a group. No one can. We are just ourselves, and we should have the freedom to have a different look each day!
