TWENTY SEVEN

September has always been my favourite month of the year, not only because is it the month of my birthday but it also marks the beginning of fashions biggest season. A time when fall / winter trends begin showing up on social media, your social media feeds, fashion magazines print their biggest and most important issues and the cities of New York, London, Milan and Paris become home to their annual fashion weeks. September is also known as a month of fresh starts and new beginnings. Although I am writing this piece eight days before September ends today is my birthday so I thought it would be better late than never to post an article featuring a wonderful custom made shirt by my good friend and legendary designer Auguste Soesastro on the day I turn twenty-seven. 

As I get older I find myself feeling more and more thankful for those around me whom I can count on through thick and thin. I have not only been blessed with an amazing mother who has given me the world but also amazing friends who love and support me. I couldn’t be more thankful for the relationships I have formed with people throughout my twenty-seven years of life. Everyone I have come across has helped shape me into the person I am today and although life has not always been easy I have overcome all the hardships I was confronted with and emerged a very happy person.  I know that this year I will achieveall that I set out to and rise higher than ever before.
