Spring break?

It's the time of year again where we get a week off from school to frolic in the sun. Not! This week is supposed to be cold and rainy. But cèst la vie, Im just going to be watching my brothers anyway. I need something fun to do. Oh well, I just bought vogue, so that should keep my occupied fr awhile. Talk to you lovelies later...

Alice in Wonderland&such

Hello there blogosphere people! I recently ventured outside of my den for a night out with my friends to see the Tim Burton film, Alice In Wonderland! I have to say, I was a little dissapointed. I thought it was going to be full on creepy becuase that's usually what you get with Tim Burton, but since this was a Disney related film, it was a minor debacle. In fashion news, I am totally in love with Doc Martens right now! Nobody gives you credit for how hard it is to dress fashionably in a small town, where the status quo is jeans and sneakers. Although it would be easier just to fit in and blend, that's one thing that I will not blend into is fashion, mediocre grades? Yes. Mediocre fashion? Please god no! School is more of a vent than a learning tool for most people. Well, I have to go! My fingers are très sore from writing on this small iPod keyboard!

Interview with a vampire

Hahaha catchy title right? Okay, let's get down to business. I may not have an interview with a vampire, but I have one with a heartbreakingly stylish friend of mine, Lupe Siene. Lupe attends a school for design, and wants to give free Advice to all you fashionistas out there.

1.) How should I start getting involved with the fashion industry?

Well... You have to make sure that this is what you want to do, otherwise you will not succeed. Once you have figured out that this is what you want to do, take the basic steps, maybe sign up for an art class. Oh! And definitely, definitely learn how to sew!

2.) how should I start looking for design schools?
I seriously suggest talking to a guidance counselor at your school, becuase they can get you into classes that will help you in the future. Also, your guidance counselor can talk with you about different schools that can be accessable for you.
Lupe had this message for all of you...
If at first you are overwhelmed, don't give up! Everybody goes through that at the beginning! Keep going at it until you get where you want to be!
Please write me any questions you may have for Lupe in the comments section. We will be doing an interview very soon!
