My "About Me" section became a little too long winded so I turned it into todays post!

I suppose you could say that I am what you would call an amalgam, a combination of things that usually don’t exist together but somehow haphazardly reside within me. I’m an avid fashion lover, who enjoys being out on the town in the swankiest places if only to show off my latest outfit but I’m equally comfortable posted up at a local dive bar or curled up at home watching an old black and white film. As free spirited and brash as I see myself I long for the charms of a bygone era, where leading man charm resonated in steadfast men like Cary Grant, Clark gable, and Gary Cooper. And yet find myself drawn to bohemian feminists such as Brigitte Bardot and Jane Birkin, who showed that great beauty, brains and fierce independence cohabitate extraordinarily. I believe Catherine Zeta Jones to be this generations brunette Grace Kelly, there is no other actress who is her equal in poise and talent. Kate Moss is my fashion muse and if anyone embodies a phoenix rising from the ashes it’s her. I enjoy reading old romance novels and exploring philosophy, even though at times I find myself so turned around as my ability to see both sides of situation is a gift and a curse. I love a great burger and fries but try my best to eat a healthy balanced diet in spite of my inner foodie’s craving for decadent rich delights. Dancing is a release for me and something that makes me so incredibly happy to my core, everyone should have a passion that they can find a bubble of perfection within even in the darkest of times. Don’t be fooled by my pop culture guilty pleasures or that my love of fashion somehow makes me shallow or materialistic. For me fashion is my personal artistic expression, my closet is my palette and my body is my canvas.
