No doubt. There is significant impact of appearance. And I agree that it is kind of a nerd fallacy to assume (or insist) that inner values should qualify only or mostly. It took me a while to learn that.
But it is also a fallacy - and a potentially expensive one - to assume the opposite that you have to follow every fashion or trend (of your social peer group). Moderation and balance is the key here I think.
Yeah that's one reason I don't like the word fashion/fashionable: it combines trendiness with style in a way that can make you focus on the wrong side.
