Fashion and Design Go Hand in Hand

Ok, I thought I was the only one who kept a fashion calendar, but I recently saw this new show FASHION HUNTERS, and the store manager said that “she’s always kept a fashion calendar.” I love fashion and design sooo much, I find myself with binders and notebooks loaded with clippings of my favorite fashion, design styles, and quotes that inspire me. When I’m feeling low, I look at them for motivation and a pick me up like a cup of coffee would do for most people. Fashion and design are about what makes you feel good from inside out. 

Especially now more than ever, I find myself looking almost on a daily basis for a little pick me up… as I’ve been affected by the economic downturn. I’ve been on the prowl looking for the right gig. I would love something either in fashion or interior design since that is my passion – expressing my creativity not only brings out my potential but fuels my soul. I’m obsessed with this new show right now {Fashion Hunters show}. It reminds me of when I used to be an assistant manager and window dresser at a high-end consignment boutique called “Chez Suzanne” in Syosset, NY, where we consigned many haute couture including some of the clothes from the cast of “Dawson’s Creek“. {Remember that show? Where are our simple girl next door Katie Holmes made her way into our homes and apparently into Tom Cruise’s heart;}. I had so much fun at that job! The best part was trying on fashionable well-made clothes and shoes throughout the day. 

They say, put your desires out there and you never know how far it can reach. Well, here it is. I’m putting it out there. Let’s see what happens. Hoping for the best!

In the meantime, here are some of my favorite home fashion picks this week from my design hunting:
