Come home

The Fashion Club shirt and Frame Denim jeans

In 2008, I began blogging as a way to participate in the current dialog at the time. After all, my entire adolescence had been shaped by first wave chat rooms, message boards, meet-ups, and soon thereafter, blogs.

Some time between these past two years and now I've felt a disconnect to the internet like I've never felt before. Perhaps I was "getting old" or moving on with my life. But that couldn't be right, since we as a society, are supposed to be more connected to each other than ever.

Rather, in an attempt to separate my real life from my online one, I went too far in one direction. I contained myself to the world of shopping and fashion - a reaction to the hostile environment of sharing - yes - too much of yourself online. This, coupled with the fact that I was about to embark on my first full collection for the label, proved entirely too much FASHION for me.

But the internet feels free again. Not so much as it once was; moving on a singular path. Rather, becoming so vast and tribal that one may feel free to just wear and obsess about whatever he/ she wants. Influences are the norm and everyone is, once again, viewed as an individual. It's nice.

This blog will continue to be a place where I can organize my thoughts, my wants and desires, as well as a space where I can work with and share the brands that I love - including my own. Who I am is not so much conveyed in pictures as it is in words. But fashion, to me, is as much about context as it is about object.

  2. Love that you are looking at your blog in a different light (or an old one) instead of giving up on it completely and disconnecting further. It can be a hard decision when you are deciding whether to stay on the bloggers path. I can't wait to see everything from here on out!

  3. If anything, you're one of the ones who've stayed true to yourself. Hope to see more of it at a time where fashion blogging is no longer what it once was.

  4. I totally get what you mean. I actually realized I hadn't been to your blog in a while and want to look through your old archives (sorry if that sounds creepy) I was what you would call a wanna-be-fashion-blogger, I started in 2010 when those gawd-awful miu miu clogs and sam edelman zoe boots were on every blogger's foot. Seems silly now. Anyway I guess now I am rambling but just letting you know that I am still a fan of your blog after all these years!

  6. Thank you sir for your real spells. My name is Zara Matteo. This is truly incredible and I have never experienced anything like this in my life. Before I met you, sir, I tried all the probable means I could to bring my husband back, but I came to realize that nothing works for me and that my husband has developed a lot of hatred for me. I thought there was no hope of reuniting with my ex-husband. But when I read good reviews about how DR WHITE helps others, I decided to send him a message via WhatsApp: +17168691327. to try and I did everything he instructed me and I trusted him and I followed his instructions as he guaranteed me in 48 hours, and just then my ex called me. Sir, we are happier now than ever. Everything looks perfect and so natural! Thank you very much sir for your authentic and indisputable spells. here again his email:

  11. My husband left me and my children for over 6 months, all hope was lost. I thought I would never meet my husband again because he blocked me on all the social networks I could use to reach him. This left me sad and heartbroken until I met Dr. Dawn. Now, I explained everything to her and she promised me that everything would be fine in 3 days, to my surprise, my husband called and started begging 3 days after the spell, now my husband is back home and he treat's me very well and we live happily together now, contact her for help:
    *if you want to your loved ones.
    *if you want to get pregnant.
    *if you want to cure any sickness.
    *if you want a spiritual power.
    *If you want to stop miscarriage.
