Welcome to Chateau de Fashion Week!!!

Thanks for stopping by my blog =) The whole reason I'm even doing this is to kind of catalog my life; so although I'm doing this for me, I hope that you can gain some personal growth from it as well. I'd like to think of myself as a person who has a good amount of depth. I do a lot of thinking, contemplating, etc. [maybe too much lol] but it's all to make sure that I go through with the right thing. I put a LOT of faith and trust in HIM and HE is where I get most of my insight from. I NEVER go with my gut... okay maybe sometimes lol. But if it's of great importance, it's worth seeking His face and listening to what he has to say. If I'm talking to myself, don't think me to be crazy lol. He's always with me. He's the voice that I listen to, He's the one who I cry out to, HE.. IS... MY... AIR. Period. So I think you get the gist that I LOVE God... Now that I've laid that out, I can move on to other things.

"But isn't Fashion Week over?" you might ask. Yes it is but I am here and I AM Fashion week. I am a PROUD member and always a Finer Woman of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. If you don't know ask about us ;) I love my organization with all of my heart and it is by far one of the best commitments I've ever made in my life. Though it comes with its goods and bads, I wouldn't change it for the world. It sucks that a lot of people don't understand it; including close friends and family. Sadly, they never will [unless they become a member =)] The bond that myself and my line sisters share is unexplainable and TRULY that of sisters. Some might fall through the cracks but that only goes to show, maybe Zeta's not in their heart at the time or never was to begin with. What I know is that I LOVE the women I call my Sorors... and nobody can tell me otherwise. Why am I Fashion Week? I was given this name through my organization as well as my Swahili line name Maridadi which I also hold close to me. The name Fashion Week kind of speaks for itself... make your own presumptions.... they'll all come back the same lol

LASTLY, I'll explain where I'm at in life. JOBLESS for right now lol... but determined. I graduated recently with my bachelor's and now I'm looking toward the rest of my life and the decisions that are best for me. I'm doing what I want... and hopefully going where I want. All I want to be is HAPPY, so I'm putting my trust in God and stepping out purely on Faith. I claim the fact that I will do great things and that's most of what I need in my opinion. To some, my method may be questionable... but I don't care because it's not about you to be frank. I'm taking this time to do ME and I'm loving it. I've been blessed all of my life and I feel like there's a reason for that. I've always given God the glory and no matter my situation I won't stop. This time in my life is no different.
