i'm baaack

hello there folks!
i'm back, new and improved. i've ditched the old blog (thank you to all my followers for their support, btw) and have decided to start fresh, with a new aim. and here's why.
last november, 3 days before i headed off overseas, i was lucky enough to sit down and chat with emily power, fashion consultant on tv show "the circle". she has my dream job- a journalism and fashion combined career. she was really helpful and gave me heaps of advice. but her most important thing she said to me was that i had to get my name out there. you have to be known. she said starting a blog is a great way to do this (btw you can check hers out at www.emilypowerfashion.com).
its taken me a bit longer than i hoped to actually start one up, as i really had to decide what type of blog i wanted. but after doing a lot of research (as much as VCE will allow)i have finally decided to run a blog aimed at teenagers 13-18 years old, who want to be informed about the latest, up to the minute fashion trends, and ways to execute them, without having to spend loads of cash.
It's a common misconception that in order to look good, you have to spend a lot of money. Wrong. Because society today places such an emphasis on looks, stylish and trendy pieces are available everywhere, for very reasonable prices. And even if they're not, it's fun to be adventurous and inventive, right?
So yeah, that's basically it as to why I've decided to create the blog. I'm going to try update it at least 3-4 times a week. I'm also going to be joining the world of Twitter (something that freaks me out, as I'm a Facebook girl through and through. Follow me!)
So enjoy blogging! I'll speak to you all again soon.
xoxo
