I am an avid fan of all things fashion-related. I adore the designs of Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood, Karl Lagerfeld, Marc Jacobs, Philip Lim and countless other designers who constantly push to blur the line between art and fashion. For me, it's all about pushing the envelope.

I am also a writer, not by trade but in spirit. Soon I hope to join the ranks of the literary world, just as soon as I complete my undergraduate work in journalism. I hope that my new, fabulous friends on SS will be willing participants in critiquing my work as I build my writing portfolio.

I must say, I am completely addicted to this new SS fashion world. Not only is it an outlet for creative expression, but the hospitable, encouraging environment that has been created by my fellow members is truly remarkable.
