A New Year and A New Vision

Hello Ladies and possible Gents!

Yes, I titled this blog with one of the most cliche phrases ever used around this time of the year. However, for me its true because of the goodness of the Lord. He has brought me a mighty lonnnnngggggg way....HA! I never thought in a million years that I would focus so much on fashion and an actual career in it this past year. For those who are not aware I attended college and received a BS in Criminal Justice with the hopes of working with the local police department. Even completed an internship with the police department. I have seen some crazy things doing police ride-a-longs. I just knew this was what I wanted for my life. Even decided to go back to school to earn my masters in Administration of Justice and Security. Right after I received my masters I started applying for careers in Criminal Justice. Can you believe I came close and failed the test. I felt then I was a loser and I started doubting myself. I mean every single position I applied for in Criminal Justice failed. FAILED!!!!!! I could not get in anywhere even with using family members who are currently and even retired in the same field as references; still did not help. I did not give up that easily; I accepted a job to get back on my feet working in a phone center. Yeah I know!!! It is pretty good money. I said I would work this until the position came through for me in the career path I just knew was mine to have. NOPE!!! Still no change. I have gotten so many rejections this year with trying to get in this field. This is when I realized me typing this blog every so often showing off my own looks was where I needed to focus on more. I am currently researching schools to gain certification in image consultantig and to gain more experience in the fashion industry with women and men. My dream is to become a wardrobe stylist/image consultant with most of my clientele being professional football players. I think that the young men who come into the league as rookies need assistance in branding their image starting with their first appearance on television and not when they are wearing their football uniform. There is already so much high expectations on these men to do well so why not ease the frustration by assisting them with their image. To God be the Glory this will happen! Enough of that lets talk about these NYE outfit. New Year is definitely a time to see glitz, glam, and glitter! I am here for all of it. I just added some velvet and fur to the mix. Whether you celebrate at church or in the club here are some ideas for you! Enjoy!

 I look forward to this new year I am utterly excited about making a great move into Fashion/Image Consulting for the NFL. Remember that true promotion comes from the Lord. We make our own career position. I think I was playing it safe when God is telling me we are going to take you further! Watch Him Work! To God be the Glory! xoxo
