After reading an inspiring blog post by Danielle Meder, I felt it was time to share a more personal side of my life I briefly touched upon in My first blog entry: revealing the souls. For the past several months I’ve been going through – and continue to experience – a period of change. Adapting to change isn’t always easy but you learn a hell of a lot about yourself and accept the motions of life, whether you agree with it or not.

When I completed my postgraduate studies at Seneca College I was ready and rearing to begin a new phase of my life. I was ready to start my career, ready to work hard, ready to feel accomplished, ready to feel financially stable and ready to live life to the fullest with the perfect job. For a brief moment everything was going as planned, but as they say where you want to be isn’t necessarily where you’re supposed to be and I experienced a shift in my career.

Since then the road has been difficult, yet despite what happened I’ve had the opportunity to rediscover a part of myself which was only considered as just an interest in fashion. I can’t pinpoint the exact moment when my love for fashion was fervently reignited and culminated into starting this blog, but I can attribute it to the people I met  and conversations with family and friends (old and new) who have emerged as truly authentic people supporting me – thank you.

My search continues, career wise, but it’s comforting to know I’m not the only person who is thinking of and is going through change. Just the other day Karl Lagerfeld tweeted, “I am a fashion person, and fashion is not only about clothes – it’s about all kinds of change.”
