Outfits 11 years ago A Girl In The Field
Sometimes I seriously sit down and ask myself why I love clothing as much as I do.
It’s kind of crazy if you think about it. I have built my life around playing dress up. I can completely understand why people mock the fashion industry. I get why there are haters. But for me, there is something deeper and more meaningful in why I choose to take special care in the way I present myself to the world.
I don’t always understand it, but my heart & soul feel it.
When I pick up a piece of clothing that is made from cotton, I smile in knowing that the cotton came from a farm, far away, where there may or may not have been a little girl playing make believe just as I used to do. For me, playing dress up meant that I could be someone other than a farmer’s daughter who lived in the middle of nowhere Texas for the day. For me, playing dress up meant that I could sing at the Grand Ole Opry, I could fight pirates, become Alice In Wonderland or pretend I was walking the runway at NYFW. While I grew up on a cotton farm, surrounded by thousands of acres of open land, I also grew up playing different careers, different sides to my personality and exploring what I wanted my life to be.
Then, one day, I went out and became her. That is what this blog is all about. Using the way you dress to become the woman you want to be.
Who do you want to be today?
