The Inagural Post.

Well off I go, venturing into the world of blogging! As of right now, I'm not sure what future posts will consist of...probably links to awesome fashion finds I've discovered or observed. I do know this, I'm going to have a field day with Awards season while it lasts :) But for this first post I thought I'd provide a look into and an overview of my own personal style, just so you readers can get a feel for where my tastes lie, and where I'm coming from. So here are some random facts about my favorite fashionable things:
  • I love skinny jeans. My roommate is always trying to get me to wear book cut ones more often, but I just love skinnes more. But I will say, you can't go wrong with a good-fitting pair of bootcuts.
  • I love peacock feathers. So much.
  • I hate crocs. They are hideous. 
  • Most people tell my that my style is bohemian and earthy, but I think eclectic is just they best way to describe it. I have a little bit of everything. 
  • I'm obsessed with old and vintage fashions. My grandma's closet is one of my favorite places to shop.
  • I also loved owls. I've loved them for a long time, long before they were the 'cool' think to like.
  • Kate Hudson's style is amazing. So is Emma Watson's.
  • I have a penchant for huge earrings, but I'm developing a love for studs too.
  • I love solid-colored v-neck tees with pockets.
  • I have 40 pairs of shoes...at least.
  • I also had moccasins way before they were cool.
  • My new favorite thing are my Toms shoes!
That's enough about me for now, and next time I promise the post will be far more entertaining! But let me just clarify one thing, I think that a "good sense of fashion" is relative for every single person, depending on who they are, and what their circumstances are. Some examples as food for thought: I can't (and wont) dress like Rihanna. I go to a small Christian college, people would look at me like I was on crack. People who live in NYC and people who live in the rural southeast just can't wear the same things on a daily basis. It just won't work. But the normal people of the world have every right to be fashionable. That's what I'm here to do, to provide people with some realistic fashion perspective. In the words of the amazing Sarah Jessica Parker: "Fashion is not a luxury." Amen SJP, amen. It's not a luxury, it's a necessity.
