Style Diary: Fashion Blogger Who Paints on Jackets

Art, fashion, writing, and music are my passions. For some reason though I have always loved art and fashion more than singing. I think the reason why I love art and fashion more, is because no one can control or tell me what to do. Also, there are no limits and it's not competitive. Whereas, in singing someone always wants to be heard and be the best. As a Christian we are supposed to be singing for the glory of God, but sometimes that is not always the case and people still focus on being heard by man instead of by God. 

Painting on clothes is so much fun to me because it helps me feel different. It helps me stand out as an individual. I was taught to be unique, and that is what painting on my clothes helps me be. I want to encourage others to stand out and do what they love as well. As an artist I think I see the world differently then others at times. A lot of people won't understand or get my art but that is okay because art is a personal thing. It is very intimate and something that you are choosing to share with the world. 

I have been painting on my clothes since the beginning of this year until now, and I think I am going to continue painting on my clothes. 

January 2016:

"I think true success comes when you no longer care about 'stunting' on your haters, because you are too busy to care."

 "Many people are not going to like your designs or they may try to down you, but keep moving forward."

 "If I would have never prayed and served God I would not be where I am today."

 July 2016: 

 "If I had listened to everyone who told me I wasn't pretty enough, thin enough, good enough, fashionable enough, or who told me I shouldn't have painted on my clothes, that my coat is ugly, or anything else I would not be here. All the glory goes to God."

If you ask any girl or woman where she gets her style inspiration from they would probably list their favorite designers or where the things that impacted them personally. Yet, if you really think about it every fashionista was once a child or is probably growing up. A part that is necessary to growing up is fashion blogger's rite of passage. Going to your mother's closet and playing dress up around the age of 4 and 5 can signify the beginning and birth of a true fashionista. Seeing items that are signify your mother and the things that she has been through. The scent on her clothing; expensive Chanel No. 5 and classic Dior. Then once you are done with her closet you go to her vanity to look at all the makeup utensils she uses. When you look on her vanity you see everything on there from the professional brushes she uses to the bronzers.

Looking through a mom's closet can be very enlightening and actually save tons of money. In today's fashion world almost every decade is in style and who else room to go to then your mommy's? (I sometimes even go as far as to my grandmother's closet). Sometimes your mom's closet is the most convenient because instead of always spending more money on clothes that are being re-modernize why not get the authentic thing from her closet or the thrift store.

Clothes have such a deeper meaning to them than just how cute you look and a self expression. In earlier decades clothes were actually designed to last which is why a lot of old have such great quality. There's something great about feeling vintage clothes especially from mom's closet. the velvety-ness, the scent of her perfume, or even the story behind it. It gives of nostalgic memories of when you were younger and in her arms, but at the same time it shows that the baby bird has finally grown up. the baby bird has finally blossomed into a strong bird like her mother.






NOTE:
*So I really apologize because I got my silky shirt from my mommy dearest closet, my real leather skirt from a thrift store those places are the best!), my shoes are from the thrift store as well, my bag from Love Culture, and my faur fur two toned jacket from Choies!*
