SPLASH. You have to have a certain sense of humour to understand and appreciate how funny this is! Thom McCann was "it" back in the day! I heart Jimmy.

COMPLICATED INDEED. Here's Fab in a shoot for Complex mag. Yes.

PURE, UNINHIBITED, DELIGHT. Images via Vogue China. I think.... Pretty sure. I love strong looks like this. You can zone in on the concept, without forgetting about how dope the clothes are.

CONJURING IDEAS. Ever dream up ideas, thoughts, inspirations? Of course you do why else would you be here?! Well currently I'm dreaming of these Jil Sanders pumps with some red silk high waisted shorts with a tie at the waist, and a lace bodysuit. I haven't found the shorts, and Ive re-worked this lace shrug into the look. Shrug via ASOS.

WHAT GOES AROUND. I have been really wanting to visit some second hand and consignment stores in the city. Much to my delight NY mag was doing a entire special on great finds from different ones throughout the city. HERE ARE MY PICKS. LOVE THEM.. OR LOVE THEM ALOT.

PUTTING MY FOOT DOWN. I usually don't try to dwell on anything negative or argumentative, but I'm a tad annoyed. Here I am a young passionate, insightful, dedicated lover of all things fashion struggling to stay a float in this industry, when what do I have to be faced with daily? The quickly approaching ridiculousness of celebrity lines. I mean really give me a fucking break! Miley Cyrus and Max Azria??? Hilary Duff??? I can agree with any one pursing their dreams and passions, but God usually gives one really good talent. If your an actor, singer, athlete, or a damn magician, then that's your direction. All it does is saturate the industry with less than honest true designers and make it diffucult for real artists to break in. There are some exceptions to this rule. i.e. Pharell's Billlionaire Boys Club, Gwen Stefani;s L.A.M.B, and even what Kanye has done with LV and Nike. It's genuine and reflects real views of the artist. Everyone else stick to what you know, because I know my jump shot needs work.

NECESSARY ACTIONS. I've been absent for a few days gathering my thoughts. Lots of thoughts. Deep life changing thoughts. I came to several conclusions, and they may seem unrelated to anything else ever posted here, but trust me they are more connected than they seem on the surface.

• Doubt is the only true obstacle in front of any achievement.


• The challenges you face in life, truly make up your character and make you unlike any else. No one can be you or do anything the way you do.


• It's never enough to be privileged. Even a silver spoon tarnishes.

Accept that everyone has their own path, and yours may have lots more bumps. I'm moving forward, working and praying hard, and promising not to look back. *SIDE BAR* Thinking about getting a similar cut, any comments suggestions or opinions are appreciated, now and always. Kelis started it all, give this woman her respect please. Thanks!!!
