A common theme online today is the pressure to conform — the idea that we must all share the same beliefs, with differing opinions always met with others' views pushed as gospel. My ideal love does not have to be yours. Each of us is entitled to our own dreams of romance. I am free to seek out my own desires, and you are free to find the kind of relationship dynamic you deem perfect in your eyes. 

To anyone who needs to hear this right now, anyone who currently feels as lost as I once did, anyone searching for the "correct" reaction to friendship breakup and betrayal, this video is for you.

So, I’ll never be intimidated by a woman with no class. After all, you are only as beautiful as how you treat others. As Audrey Hepburn said, Elegance is the only beauty that ever fades.

I create and I style, to not merely dress, but inspire confidence and authenticity. We each have a different voice, an original opinion, and a unique perspective. Fashion is a form of self expression, a language beyond words, and our personal style is built from our own originality. Discovering your true self, and carrying that identity through everything you do, create, and wear will transform your reality. 

Comparison makes you blind to your own progress. There is enough money, enough jobs, enough attention, and whatever is meant for you will find you. The one thing there is only one of however, is you. No matter how hard anyone tries, no one can be you. So, be you!

I refuse to become the person someone has attempted to paint me out as. So yes, I stay silent. I won’t broadcast our disagreement to the world, and I won’t let a moment of hurt turn me into someone I am not.
