I've decided...

Hi all!!

I have decided that it is time for me to stop thinking about venturing out on my own and just do it!!!  There have been a lot of changes for me in 2012.  For starters, I lost my job in January.  Seems horrible, right? No, not at all!!  It was a definite blessing and while it has been hard, I am so grateful to no longer be in such a toxic situation.  I decided to let my weave go!!!  May not seem big to you but it was huge to me!!!!  I wore weaves for a year and a half as I was growing my perm out.  Now, I know you don't know me yet but I was never a huge fan of weave until I decided I needed a change.  I also let a few people go in my life that were toxic as well. (More about that in another post)

See, I'm a definite work in progress but I'm definitely progressing :-)

So, here's the big thing...I have done retail since the age of 19 and throughout those years, have really developed my own sense of style and truly realized what role I would like to play in the fashion industry.  For about 6 years now I have dabbled in consulting and personal shopping on the side.  Truth be told, I've only had 2 clients but I now know that I really love being able to go and show someone how to utilize their wardrobe and accessories better. It is time for me to really do this though.  I tell people about what I do on the side and I'm immediately asked for a business card...which I don't have.  Bad girl!!  I have to take myself more seriously before I can expect anyone else to.  Right?!  First step: business cards...or maybe the first step should be a website? Who knows, but I'm excited to figure it out.

Now that I'm weaveless, lol, I think my style is even better!!  I feel free to truly express myself. I feel renewed.  I have a new job that I will be starting on the 1st of May and as far as my love life goes...well that's another story but everyday I'm trying to work on being a better me so I can be my best self when it is time for me to be in a relationship.  My lease for my apartment is up in October and hopefully *fingers crossed* I will be moving into a townhouse!!  Chance(my dog) and I have completely outgrown my one bedroom :-( and I can't stand the management, anyway. :-/

So that's some of my story and I hope you enjoyed learning a little bit about me.  Thanks for reading!!!

XOXO,
Choc
