dear lovely readers,
i've decided to make a change. a blog change. while the closet challenge was a major undertaking from which i learned a lot, i have decided to shift the focus of my blog, because i think the content of the closet challenge (one daily shot of, "oh hai, i wore this.") has reached critical mass for me.
i've decided to change to reflect my station in life. most of what i do is styling for bands / artists. this is because my loves in the world, besides my kitty ;) , are fashion and music. i am a lousy musician. but i figured out a long time ago that while i can't make music, i can make people who do look the way their music sounds- with fashion. and i am in the midst of a career built on this fact.
for the record, things to know that i learned from the closet challenge...
-i made it 154 days. i bet you can go farther than you think, too.
-if you don't wear something at least every 6 months, get rid of it. or make it into something you will wear.
-shop in your closet. there are things you love you've forgotten.
-we all get in fashion ruts. remember that when you got something in your closet, you loved it! try things new ways with new accessories, and you will surprise yourself. i sure did!
so, from now on, besides my general critique and commentary on the fashion goings on of the world, i will be posting about music and dress, what i hear, and why i style my clients or myself based on it. i'm also going to post videos or MP3s of the music to share with you- because i don't work for anyone i don't support, and have worked with some killer acts. i think you'll dig it. i hope so.
stick around and see what's next.
lots of love,
mode.
