Renewal is a theme that is continuously used in the fashion industry, especially in September. Although spring is typically the season for change, hello spring cleaning, September is the time for breaking out of your fashion ruts and reevaluating yourself both on the inside and out.
I know that it has been a very long time since my last post, and I apologize for what seemed to be yet another blog that someone started and soon neglected. Whoever it was that said that senior year is the easiest needs to have their wardrobe taken away for a week, only being allowed to wear sackcloth. This last semester, this last MONTH before graduation is by far my most challenging, but I will get through. And it is my book publishing class that is getting me through this tough semester.
Long story short, I am taking a book publishing class in which the main project throughout the course is to create a concept for a book idea and to learn the various steps in making the book a reality from the proposal to marketing and advertising. Of course my book is fashion themed; the details I will not go into because although the professor told us that this project could be used to assist in getting a job in publishing or the like, I have so much passion for my book idea that I am in the process now of designing a business idea that revolves it.
I am actually very confident that this idea will be my ticket into the fashion industry; an industry that is known for costing an arm and a leg to break into. However, besides the book idea, I have learned so much that can be applied even here on my blog. I honestly started this blog because I thought that it was the cool, new thing to do; after all, everyone has a blog nowadays. There was no purpose to it, even if no one was reading it, I would feel a certain way just knowing that my opinions were out there for everyone to see.
It took me some time to think about what I wanted the purpose of my blog to be, but once I figured it out, I realized that I was doing it all along, although it was not done in the most successful way. I love fashion magazines, and I when I love something I want everyone to love it, or at least know about it. If you are anything like me, you do not have endless storage space to house every fashion magazine you can get your hands on, but it is so hard to find out which ones are worth buying without actually going out and buying them. I want to be that source who you rely on to give you those crucial details in making the decision to buy or not to buy. I will give you the highlights and the features of those magazines. This renewal might not appear right away, but I swear on the heart of my Marc Jacobs sweater that it will happen.
xoxo,
September's Love Child
