Kate Spade is the co-creator of the handbag brand Kate Spade, she is a self-empowering woman with a mind of her own, somewhat like myself. I am very goal oriented and believe that if your dreams do not scare you then they are not big enough. I have a main goal of owning and running a fashion boutique of my own. A large interest of mine, like any other typical girl, is clothes. However, unlike other typical girls I take my interest whole heartedly by turning an interest into a successful career. Confidence is a key ingredient in making a goal into reality, and the perfect outfit can give you the confidence to take on the world two steps at a time.

The fashion business is the area I plan to take on as soon as I can. If I’m going to put in all my time, effort, and money into a business it might as well be a business that I would love if I did not already own it myself. Countless dreamers dream up amazing business ideas every day but only the outstanding ideas make it into our world. A week before the age of sixteen I was offered a job at a local fashion boutique that was not even hiring because my unique style caught their eyes. From then on I began my journey up the stairs in the world of fashion. I started my job as a sales associate; I greeted customers and tended to their style needs and wants, until early December when our store closed down due to a bigger company buying our building out from under us. It was a disappointment right before the holidays, but I took it as a positive and focused on school work and other activities as a high school student and athlete. Little

Wayne Dyer once said “doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life”. Ever since I was a little girl, fashion has always been a very important part of my life. However, while most young girls were busy designing Barbie’s next outfit, I was enthusiastically trying to figure out the best way to market and sell Barbie to my friends. This habit did not end during my childhood years; rather it followed me through high school. I firmly believe that being passionate about your career can add much happiness and depth to your life. By attending FIT I can bring and take away positive ideas and qualities.

As a child, I have always been a visually observatory person. Patterns, textiles, and fashion have always been high interests of mine. My childhood consisted of many Barbie dolls as toys, and it wasn't the Barbie dolls that I wanted to play with, but the clothes that I loved to collect and interchange between the dolls. Creating different outfits for the dolls made me feel as if I was making my own mark in fashion. As I grew older, begging my mother to purchase fashion magazines like Vogue, Elle, and Harpers Bazaar were typical and became expected. While flipping through the pages of fashion magazines, I was enthralled while examining the latest trends from celebrities and models. This is what influenced me to want to work in the fashion industry.
My love affair with fashion started years ago, but over these past 2 years it has grown into something so beautiful. Fashion made it’s grand entrance in my life when I was looking over a Chanel catalog along with a few other designers. For example; Vera Wang, Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior, Marc Jacobs, Phoebe Philo, and many more. The designs caught my eye and I was just mesmerized by it all. It literally took my breath away! I always told myself and my family that I will grow to be an amazing fashion designer and sell beautiful, elegant clothing known to man. A worldwide known designer.
I graduated high school back in 1994. I was engaged to be married in just two years, and even though I joined the Pennsylvania Air National Guard right after graduation it was only one weekend a month and two weeks out of the year. So I needed a full-time job. A friend of the family knew a guy who was opening a second store, and was going to need a store manager. I took the job and got started. What I didn’t know was the guy I was just hired to work for was a little confused as to what he wanted. I hung onto the job for a little over a year hoping it would turn around but, no dice.

Unfortunately, before she even starts her classes, she discovered by a French modeling scout. Since an early age, she used to dress up in her mom clothes and pretended to be a model. And spend most of her time watching TV shows which are about fashion and styles. This opportunity opened doors to the success she owns. Now a day, If the name of fashion models mentioned, the first person that reaches to most of our minds is Tyra Banks. She is known for being a hugely rewarding model.

After December 2014, when I left Santa Fe University of Art and Design, I was hoping to change majors from graphic design to fashion design. I did work both at a local McDonald’s and eventually at the Kickapoo Casino as a dishwasher. In belief that I would somehow turn to my artistic endeavors again, a year became a year and seven months. I kept making irresponsible choices with my finances, where I usually had found an uplifting sensation, and I found myself in an more impossible situation to return to my road of college. My brother and I bought a car, rented an apartment, and started living as if we were able to do it all on our own. We didn’t follow our parents advice, but at the time it felt like the right thing to do. We had nowhere to go
This summer, I moved to my current place of residency, Quincy. I traveled across the ocean from Tirana, Albania, to explore and experience new opportunities such as soccer, with a new team, but also begin a new type of education in an American high school. While living in Albania, I never had to help pay the bills, and life was easy because the cost of living was so low. However, when I moved, I began to realize that living in America is more challenging than I expected. I discovered that the cost of living is high and I needed money to have fun with my new friends. Therefore, I decided to look around and applied for a job at Abercrombie & Fitch Kids. I got the job and spent most my summer working at Abercrombie & Fitch. The mind-numbing act
The fashion industry is rapidly growing and constantly generating new fashion trends almost weekly. Fashion for some may seem ridiculous and unnecessary; but fashion is not just a meaningless usage of article of clothing or farcical materials sew together for coverage. There is more to fashion than meets the eyes, fashion is precious and significant. It is a reflection of self-image, it speak the ream about who we are and how we review ourselves. Not only is fashion the reflection of self-image but also the reflection of our history as Coco Channel have said, “Fashion is not something that exist in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.” Fashion
Ever since I was little my dream was to own a fashion brand. I have always been fascinated by fabrics, designs and outfits. As soon as I left high school I interned at a fashion house for three months and then my fashion dreams skyrocketed into something most times I cannot even fathom. For me, fashion and styling has been something I have always done with so much passion and happiness for the past four years. I have styled so many people for red carpet events and created outfits for them as well. Also writing reviews for online magazines. Styling and constructing my designs into wearable pieces for me, is fun. I see an outfit or a fabric and in my subconscious mind I am already thinking of what to create out of it. This came naturally for
It wasn’t until May of last year that I had finally gotten my first job, it was in retail so that was a blessing in my eyes. I’m definitely a girl who loves clothing and what not, but what I didn’t think about when I accepted this job was, “how am
