On A Mission
I don’t think I’ve fully explained
why I started this blog. I love to write and I love fashion with my two
passions combined I found the perfect career for me, to be a fashion
journalist! This career has all the elements that I live for. I even remember
how I got started on this journey….
Now when I was little people always
asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up and I said things like a doctor or
a teacher, but I was just saying things that I’ve heard I didn’t exactly find
my niche. When I was I had a little (okay HUGE) obsession with Bratz dolls
& movies. The re-occurring theme of “a passion for fashion” inspired me! I
just couldn’t stop thinking of all the possibilities that came out of fashion.
One time in 3rd grade I remember I was bored in class and started
drawing out fits on paper, I cut them out and gave them to my friends as a mock
of my fashion line. Later other kids told me they wanted some to and I cut some
more out and “sold” my line after school. This immediately sparked my interest
and then I had a true answer to the question & my passion for fashion grew. I remember when my birthdays came
around I would always ask for fashion related things like; sketchbooks, art
supplies, sewing machine, sewing tools, anything I could get my hands on.
But on the other side of things,
ever since I was little I’ve always liked to write. Since I learned to write
I’ve written things in notebooks and have collected those notebooks to this
day, kind of like Harriet The Spy writing everything she’s ever observed
into notebooks. First it started at home learning how to write my name then as
I went to school my passion for writing progressed. I wrote in journals just
talking about my everyday life. In other notebooks I wrote stories and poems.
At one point in 5th grade I co-wrote book with my friend (sadly we
cannot recover itL)
but this love for putting my own words down on paper makes me feel like I have
a voice and since I have a strong passion for writing one day I would like to
publish a book about my story.
As you can see my passions for
fashion and writing are equally strong and becoming a fashion journalist would
help me to live both of passions. With this career path in mind I decided to
start this blog so I could get familiar with writing my own content and
publishing it for other eyes to read besides my own.
