As I strolled down King St. in the sweltering heat of summer in South Carolina, I paused in front of Louis Vuitton to admire the window. An Eiffel Tower shaped stack of luggage. I couldn’t help to think that at exactly this time last year I myself was packing my bags for Paris. Headed to the center of couture for experience in styling, trend forecasting, and a lesson in life.
Its funny where life takes you and the places that you end up. If someone had asked me where I would be six months ago, Charleston, SC would have never crossed my mind. One email to a designer, one 16-foot truck later, and with the support of family and friends, I have yet again changed my life.
From the outskirts of Baltimore to the mountains of West Virginia, the bustling streets of Paris, and the coast of S. Carolina, I have had the opportunity to be inspired. Fashion fills me with an excitement and passion that I can’t quite explain. I hope that one day I can create in a way that will fill others with the same joy.
Please enjoy this collection of thoughts, ideas, and reflections on all things fashion, art, and design inspired.
