One and only..

These photos. When I first left home to pursue my career I moved to Los Angeles, I took a couple of pictures to remember my family.... random ones from fun times that made me smile. They helped me through my first time living far away from home especially in a difficult city like LA. I was trying to pursue my career in fashion out there... a year later after 4 jobs and some experience in a failing economy I returned home. Before I new it..it was two weeks later that I left for the mountains... Winter Park, CO I went and this time I took photos of my Mom from when she was younger, I found them comforting. I love it there..but it had been close to 6 months before this next visit home. And as a fashion designer, its been almost 6 months and I haven't sewn or designed a thing. My fashion inspiration has kinda..dwindled and I have started to wonder if I really want to play a role in the fashion world anymore, until I came across these. They captivate something special. Seeing my mothers outer beauty and inner beauty in an entirely different way. In the years before I was born. Its amazing and inspiring. She is such a beautiful woman, in her style and grace. I notice that I dress the same as she once did, funny because she hates my jean shorts. This time I will be returning to Co...stealing once again a collection of photos..that not only will be comforting but yet a palette of inspiration to help me start my collection of designs.
