My Sad, Dreadful Excuse.... and Surprising Realization


I have been filled with deep sorrow because of my lack of commitment to this thing I call my "blog". I am not sure of the reasons why this lack of commitment has occurred but I must say my diminished sense of inspiration or idea behind what I want to share has been non-existent... But now, surprisingly my inspirations have been released since the start of my senior year of high school. I have now realized that although I may not be in the heart of New York City, fashion as one see's it, can be more than just couture or the next Alexander Wang collection, it can be many things and it is up to the - beholder - (and a little help from me of course) to interrupt it for themselves.
Fashion has been my way of expressing who I am from a very young age and it has taken me this long to figure out that it is a lifestyle that I want to live. Although life has brought me many obstacles that have made me second guess my choices of creating a life and career in fashion, I have come to the realization that I didn't choose fashion, fashion choose me! By no means will I ever be the next John Galliano, in fact being a designer does not spark a real interest in my life but as I have mentioned before, being in fashion PR is my dream. Growing up in this small town or even Canada for that matter, has not really produced any worth-while options that would get my closer to my goals, until now! I am extremely excited to inform you that through my long and mind-numbing search I have finally found a program that is right for me, well almost right! It is the Fashion Communication program at Ryerson in Toronto, which is perfect because every time I have been to Toronto I have fallen in love with the city; mind you it is no NYC! My hope is that getting this education will increase my knowledge on not only fashion PR but in every aspect of the fashion world. As all, soon to be high school grads know, applying to colleges can be very stressful and often straining which I never did believe before this process began, but with every accomplishment in life comes a lot of hard work. I have recently challenged my self to "dare to dream" because siting on the couch watching Oprah wont make you Oprah, if you catch my drift!
Until next time folks!

Stay Fabulous!
XOXO
