My fashion story
As a kid,it wasn't that bad. My mother dressed me in cute enough outfits-I had a sort of fro at the time,blue eyes-with my OshKoshBgosh overalls,I had a half decent fashion style-that is,until I started picking out my own clothes.
Looking back at old pictures from middle school, I just kind of cringe-but the worst style makes the best makeover,right? Once I got into high school, after the initial freshman attempt at trying to be impressive, I fell into a sad lazy habit of simply wearing t-shirts and jeans-it was really quite pathetic. My older sister Kelly always had a very girly style, always dressing up and wearing dresses, etc.
One day my mother remarked to me about how it would be nice if I dressed up once in a while too, and put real effort in it. I, being indignant and stubborn, was determined to prove her wrong-so I started dressing up ALL THE TIME. This made me different, and stand out certainly. People started to gain interest in what I was wearing regularly, and my confidence grew largely(I was extremely insecure and depressed at the time). After being obsessed with fashion blogs for the longest time, I just had a moment of "Hey,why the heck not", and went for it-made my blog.
I find inspiration everywhere-fellow bloggers, art pieces, movies, people on the street, nature-everything-I love finding ways to put different things together, and there's never a day when I look in my closet and think I have nothing to wear-I simply remix some of my pieces a different way I never have before. And that's been one of the best things for me- my blog is one of the things that really excites me-for a while,I was always bummed about not having something to really live my life fully for-some people had singing, some people-academics. I thought I was simply drifting through life without a real purpose.
And now,I've certainly found mine (: I find inspiration everywhere,and there's not much more satisfying than finding the perfect outfit and getting just great photos for a post, I love it (: And the comments I get, about how people truly enjoy it, and that they admire what I'm doing, is the best part (:
