Passion + Fashion = Happiness

The weather is changing and so am I. As some of you know, I have longed to play in Fashion, but I found myself in another career altogether. It’s been very, very good to me, but during this time of my life (newly single, almost 40 and with a non-stop creative mind) I have decided to follow my true passion and pursue a career in fashion. Now don’t get me wrong, I have no idea what that will be and I’m exploring all my options, but what I do know is that I’m damn good at it. Not only that I LOVE DOING IT…I see colors, patterns, textures and I can put them together. I can’t stop thinking of things to buy and trends and for clothing and home décor…and then sharing that with my friends!!


I could go on and on, but what is most important for me is that I’m taking the right steps; I’m turning down opportunities that aren’t leading me in the Fashion direction. So I’ll take you on my journey and we’ll see where this takes me. In the meantime – let’s talk about tonight!

FASHION NIGHT OUT!!
Said to be the biggest night in Fashion followed by the start of NYC Fashion week, it’s going to be a great week ahead. I have the schedule printed for both the fashion week runway shows and tonight’s events held here locally in Chicago. I’m going to FNO with some gal-pals tonight and I’m so excited…so much so that I had the hardest time trying to figure out what to wear…I still had to go to work, so I couldn’t be too edgy, but I wanted to look super cute too! So I settle on my current outfit, I think it accomplishes both…Vera Wang brown heels, Target navy wool short skirt, green-white striped sweater and my Fourth ‘n Town blue striped jacket…accessories and I’m ready to go. I’ll post pictures from the event.


This is my entry into a whole new phase…
Let’s toast to passion, fashion, and making it happen!
