Over the last year, Stylish Thought has undergone some serious changes. Going from a simple blog to a quarter-life crisis is not easy (let me tell you). At 24 years old, I’ve been a writer since the age of 5 and have always known that words are my calling. Two years ago, after graduating from college I realized that words were not enough… what would these words say about me and what I loved.
What I love is style, fashion and the idea of dressing ourselves for the world we live in and the world we create around us. So I started a blog to express that. But being puesdo-obsessive that wasn’t enough. I had to get my words out there and this is where the quarter-life comes in. I began interning at local publications as a means to get more experience (great idea), but along the way my words lost their way. What was I trying to say… what is it about fashion that lulls and beckons me? I had no idea.
Stylish Thought today is an examination of that. The Stylish Thought of yore (a year to be exact) was the fluff, pomp and circumstance, the celebrities, the hype (all perfectly fine things) Now I want to think about style in my world. I’m a 24 year old writer living in Philadelphia and I have Stylish Thoughts. I shop even when I’m broke (chicken before the egg?) I’m going to school in London (if 20,000 falls in my lap) I contemplate getting Botox in my toes and I have dreams of sporting a massive Afro, a la Erykah Badu. And these are only the tip of the iceberg.
Here they are my thoughts. Join the club. Have stylish thoughts too.
