I have enjoyed learning about all the different jobs in fashion and the many facets to a fashion magazine. However, I just want to write. That is the main thing. I would love to do some writing about fashion as it is a sort of hobby of mine. I love to know what's out for the season, especially when it comes to shoes. I am somewhat of a shoe snob. I have my own "shoe guy" who helps me decide what shoes I need for the season. We have so much fun together.
I don't think I want to be in the cut throat business of fashion. I can honestly say that since I haven't seen The Devil Wears Prada I did not know just how searing the business is. I don't want to be constantly looking over my shoulder to see who's behind me. I want to become so good in my craft of writing that a magazine would come to me to do a certain piece for them. I would like to write about more than fashion because I think I would tire of just doing fashion and because I know one day I would look back and wonder why I didn't spend more time writing about the things I know the best, my family, my culture, my self.
I love feeling like I've put together a great outfit, but I don't want to be obsessive about it and it is easy to do that. I want to be confident in my own style and really embrace it. I really like that part of fashion: the real people in fashion have their own style, they don't just follow the trends. I could never keep up with all the trends, but I like to incorporate some of them into each season. I think for me writing about fashion will always be somewhat of a hobby. I don't think I'm cut out for the big world of fashion and competition and being overlooked alot. I want to keep my love for fashion in my pocket and bring it out as I will. I want it to be fun for me all the time and I think that if it became my job, it might not be as fun. Just thoughts.....
