Stylenspire: pops of color - loads of charm

World Wide Wonders, 

I know its been ages and I apologize for being amiss. 

A lot has been going on, like I predicted last Spring, and it has been a wonderfully challenging journey. It turns out that I've been having an affair. 

Yup! 

You read it right.

Now it's full blown into a romance that was ordained. 

Truth is I cheated on my fears; broke up with my doubts and married my dreams. 

Once I let go of the nothingness in doubts and fears, my attraction to my dreams started growing incredibly. Not to over romanticize this, but I fell in love with my dreams all over again. Sharing my daily style chronicles on this blog led me back to my love of designing women's fashion. I used to push back designing into the 'some day-one day' slot, until I got to the cross-roads of 'now or never'. 

I chose now in the Spring of 2014 and exactly a year later this Spring of 2015, life has been a victorious journey of pain, passion and praise. 

In the months that have followed since I last blogged, Stylenspire has branded into a full handmade clothing line for women, including the launch of the online shop on Etsy.

Just this past season, I have been able to showcase my debut collection at the RAW-Natural Born Artists GRANDEUR event, the MIDWEST FASHION WEEK opening ceremony of EMERGING ARTISTS, and the POSH FASHION SHOW.

There's so much more to share, so stay tuned and come alongside with me on this Stylenspiration journey!
