At this point in time there are a few things on my mind, and two of them would be our upcoming Fall/Winter 2011 season for which I have to prepare my closet, and also my University which starts back in just a couple of weeks. GQ Russia surprisingly made me excited for them both after releasing a spread entitled “Dead Poet Society,” which feature models Jacques Naude, Miles Garber, Bobby Nicholas and Sam Whitman and is shot by Yu Tsai. Edited by Ekaterina Melnikova, the models appear in a classic bunch of color-washed photos wearing amazing outerwear and suits from the likes of Balmain, Dolce & Gabbana, Burberry Prorsum, and tons more labels.
Without a doubt, I know that I have a lot of great things to look forward to in life, but for this past week, in my distance I felt as though I didn’t. I mean, we all have those times when we feel as though everything around us is coming down, but I felt as though everything that I was doing, or not doing, was making me confused or stressed. It may sound weird, since I’m usually accustomed to fun, laughter and love; however, this feeling was very unlike me, and it made me rethink tons of things, including whether I should go to New York this summer, or not. Knowing that I’m moving into the second year of blogging this month, I believe that all the hard work I’ve been up to, both online and physically, will pay off. As for relationships, I still have lots of great people to meet just like I did in my first year. In my opinion, fashion is an industry which allows me to enjoy everything I do, whether it’s writing articles, shopping or sitting at 15 minute fashion shows around the world. So no matter what happens now, this phase is definitely on its way out!! Although I’ve considered giving up on ‘everything’ a couple times, I won’t! Why? Because I’ve got a great life in the making, with amazing friends and family, and more importantly God, who has been incredibly good to me.
