The Beginning

So for my first post, I thought I'd start off by letting you all know a little bit about me and why I started this site. All throughout my freshman year, I was told by countless professors that we needed to start a blog because journalism today is moving more and more towards an online genre and it would help us get ahead in the industry. I knew immediately that I wanted to do a blog on fashion, it just took me a while to figure out exactly how I wanted it to work. You see fashion is pretty much my life. I've known since I was 12 that I wanted to work for fashion magazines someday, and I literally cannot wait until that happens for me! However, fashion can have its downsides sometimes, and one of those is the cost. Clothes today are just so expensive and for college students like me who don't have much money to spare, it can be hard to splurge on new additions to my wardrobe. I admit I can be a crazy shopaholic sometimes, racing into a store just picking up whatever I like and not really taking the time to look at a price tag only to find later I spent way too much money on clothes that I end up wearing only once. So when I really took the time to think what kind of fashion blog I wanted to do, it hit me that I should start a blog on finding the best fashion deals. It would be a way to not only help myself save some extra money when it comes to shopping but also help the tons of other women out there who pay a fortune for cute clothes. As I have become more and more bargain conscious, I am starting to see that there are some really cute clothes out there that don't ask much from your wallet. There are plenty of pieces within an affordable price range, it just takes a little digging to find them! That's why I tend to get annoyed with some magazine fashion features today. It seems all they do is put clothes in there that cost in the hundreds and thousands! Now for the millionaires of this world I'm sure it's not a problem, but how are us girls out there on a minimal budget supposed to afford clothing like that? I refuse to believe that being stylish means paying a fortune to look good. From this day onward, I am working for the girls on a fashion budget! I promise to use some of my best digging on the web to unearth the fashion that is both chic & cheap for you and me! So if you're tired of paying an arm and a leg to look hot, follow me and I'll lead you to the deals you've been waiting forever to find!
