AMAZING!!!!


Ok, so I just got back from 'The September Issue' movie...and I have one word... Amazing! Being an alumni of Savannah College of Art and Design and getting a chance to meet and introduce myself to Andre' Leon Talley, this movie felt close to me... It saddens me that some people think Fashion can be a joke or just done for play, but Fashion is a way of life for me... I enjoy learning and studying and researching all types and levels of fashion...I mean that is why I majored in it for my college career. Anna Wintour is the type of woman I look up to as a strong woman. And the way she took Thakoon Panichgul was amazing to me. Sometimes we think (I do) that people that high up in the world and with that much power, seem like they can be a bit stern. But they have to be... this showed a different side to her that if she believes in someone, they can go really far in their craft. This brought along a thought that keeps coming up in my mind... I, more than ever, want to be a great designer. Sometimes I ask people for their help and they end up not helping me, and at that point I do it myself. And this lets me know that I couldve done it myslef from the beginning. Dont get me wrong its great to have great connects but when people arent there for you sometimes you have to do it and get where you want to be on your own. I dont want to be another local designer... I want to be great. It will be very hard work but it will pay off in the end.
If you go for something make sure its something you love...
