maybe she's born with it...

i may not have started as young as suri cruise, but fashion and style are things i've been drawn to from the start. here's a brief history on the evolution of my style!


    age 4 : i refused to wear anything but girly, floaty dresses!

    age 5 : mom gave me a vanity box filled with perfume samples, lip balm and a faux
                pearl necklace for christmas!

    age 6 : while most kids my age wanted to be teachers and doctors when they grew       
                up, I wanted to be a supermodel!

               
    age 7 : making necklaces became my new hobby!

    age 8 : i decided that i must have long hair upto my waist so my mom  
               bought faux hair and stitched in into a cap for me! 

    age 9 : i developed a ring fetish and had a box made especially to store my ring 
                collection.


    age 10 : i insisted that i 'needed' a pair of boots and was ready to do anything to  
                  have them! (hence the A+ on my report card)  

    age 11 : i'd have all my friends over and we'd parade around in my mom's high heels  
                 with purple eyeshadow on!

   age 12 :  my beauty must haves? bubblegum chapstick and strawberry lip balm!


   age 14 : i got totally makeup obsessed and would spend ages teaching myself 
                makeup techniques!

   age 17 : i started making fashion scrapbooks as a hobby. i'd cut out pictures from 17
                magazine, group trends together and do little writeups on them! that's  
                when i realized that i could make a career out of doing what i absolutely 
                loved!
            
   age 20 : i scored an internship with a fashion magazine where i got to fulfill what i 
                started out to do years ago :)
