welcome to my blog

Welcome to my first blog! Woohoo! Since I am sick of being a buyer & currently searching for a new job in Social Media/PR/Fashion, I figured a blog would be a productive addition to my portfolio. And who doesn't love fashion or shopping? I find my world completely pauses the second I get a new Vogue or Bazaar in the mail. It's like I MUST read it cover to cover before continuing with my life. It's an addiction. (On a sidenote-I cannot wait to see "Confessions of a Shopaholic" when it comes out next spring!!!) I love shopping and styling and am a firm believer that you don't need to be a millionaire to have a fashion sense. Sure we all wish we could grab the latest Fendi bag or new Louboutin's but the reality is we can't. And don't worry, this isn't a blah blah blah blog about how to save money and shop for bargain clothes...I am very guilty of not being able to put down expensive clothes, shoes or handbags.

My only fashion rules are this:

#1) Don't become a "Zoebot" (a Rachel Zoe follower...ughh we'll get into more detail). Be creative...it's your fashion sense! Sure we all idolize our favorite celeb's fashion sense but do we need to copy their every move? Definitely not! I've seen people in Target with better style than certain celebrities who shall remain nameless...for now....

#2) If the shirt (or whatever) is too small, too big, doesn't fit right, wrong color, etc...do not buy it! Thinking of getting it altered...? puhhhlease! I have a pile of clothes that have stayed on my floor (neatly folded of course) for 5 months waiting to be taken in, taken out, waiting for buttons to be sewed on, etc...it's a joke. None of us have time for that. So if it doesn't fit you like it should in the dressing room, it's a sign from above! & if it does fit, buy it...in every color!

#3) CHILL OUT. It's fashion. It's supposed to be fun. Stop matching your shoes, bag and belts together...this isn't 1998! Seriously!
