Where it started ...






First let me just explain my amazon pics/links: as a fashion consultant i am HYPER vigilant on whats cool - i don't have to really work on it - it's a sixth sense thingy - just like anyone else who has a talent for something ....
So i picked these selections for you to check out NOW - i do them every BLOG. SO .... I was born in NY and eating was important. Then there were dolls. (loved dressing them up) and I am also a vintage toy collector and the there WAS Bloomingdales! My mom, aunt and grandmother would take my sister and I to Bloomies. We went shopping weekly and when we did, we all bought lots of clothes. So on i went, shopping away at the department stores and boutiques with the ladies of the family and it continued that way for many years. Then, as a teen i started denying my first love : food. My fashion addiction took first place and in order to look good in my clothes i wanted to be THIN. So, i stopped eating, became anorexic. I decided the most perfect thing for me to do next was: become a model. I started modeling in the city with Click agency at about 17 yrs. of age. Modeling was great in the beginning and i felt on top of the world. But after graduating from high school , i really wanted to study art. So, i continued to model part-time and I went to the Fashion Institute of Technology to study fashion illustration and merchandising. The modeling stopped eventually as i started landing jobs in the fashion and art business... So, that's basically the beginning - the shopping, the modeling and the fashion art school, fast forward 25+ years and here i am today - a fashion consultant, fine artist and skinny bitch who wears nice clothes....
