BLOGGER IS GOING AWAY BUT IM HERE TO STAY!

Stop right there and look no further. You’ve stumbled upon something that will change your life, well, at least, I hope it will. I’m sure you’re wondering as to how this one simple article will change your life so I guess I will kill the anticipation and just begin. My name is Keirra Webster, yes Webster like the dictionary, and I am from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. I’m sure most people think we are just a bunch of cowboys and Indians, but to that I say “watch a Thunder game!.”

Anyways, I’m an 18-year-old who just finished her first semester of college at the University of Central Oklahoma, but after a lot of hard thinking, I decided that New York was the place for me to be. I was originally accepted for the fall semester at Pace University, but I deferred thinking I was so not ready. Which, in all honesty, I was not; however, throughout this past semester I realized that if fashion journalism/styling is what I want to do then I had to spread my wings and fly the coop. I am in the process of doing this as we speak (or you read), but enough about my ever changing life lets get to the fashionable bits.

For me, fashion is something that when I was so unsure of who I was it gave me an outlet to be whoever, whenever and that’s how I would consider my personal style. My style is a combination of simply everything whether that be grunge, preppy, boho-chic, simplistic, tomboy-chic etc. It is solely based on the mood that I am in when I wake up.

In this particular outfit, I went with a more simplistic look with a touch of edge to give it just a tad bit more pizazz (fun word to use). I love the little effort it takes when getting ready in the morning, to just throw on some fitted skinny jeans, a basic tee, a bold jacket and some comfy but bold boots, and that’s simply all it takes to create an effortlessly chic look. These specific skinny jeans are my absolute favorite because they not only are fitted so they feel like a second skin, but they still are able to move around with you on the off chance you have to bust a split. The basic white shirt is a shirt you could find anywhere for less than ten dollars which is perfect for that college student living on a budget. Of course we can’t forget the main course, the ultimate staple piece, the silver studded jacket. It took any simple look, as such, to the next level. However, as much as the jacket brought the look to ultimate peaks, the shoes rounded it out. I finished my look by accessorizing with some simple jewelry, one long gold necklace, a few midi rings and long earrings.

Teen Vogue Fashion University

Teen Vogue Fashion University 

         So this past weekend has been the best weekend of my life .Why you ask? Well it is because I spent the past weekend in not only New York but i spent it by being surrounded by the best of the best in the fashion industry. I was able to attend Teen Vogue's Fashion University class of 2015. the application process was simple in itself , all that is required is writing an essay that depicts your passion for fashion and why you feel you should be able to go;this year however as applying you ranked your top interests in the industry from one to three. the options were business , styling and design, and PR. The category i chose out of my top three was the design /styling major, in this major we were talked to about building our brand and successful one at that,we were given tips on how to even breach an entrance into this industry and the things that people that are giving away these opportunities are looking for. 

           To do a little name dropping of how big some of these people that were in attendance I'll start off with those that i specifically met myself. saturday we started off my class with meeting the Vashtie kola who stayed true to her tomb boy/ skater roots and it paid off for her in the long run After meeting with her we then moved on to meet Jens Grede who is one of the co-founder of frame denim. Jens gave us the top 9 steps that he wish was at least 10 to be even but he ran out of things to say so he gave us 9. Those 9 tips were definitely detailed and very conducive to the pieces to owning an running a successful brand. We then went on to meet our dean speaker who was the one and only Rebecca Minkoff. She gave us the advice as to what help launched her career(not like i didn't know) and she gave us as well the key pieces that most designers or magazines are really looking for in interns as well. After that we then attended lunch in the conde' nast cafeteria ,which was pretty good ,and from there we attended a few more lectures from the likes of Micaela Erlanger celebrity stylist and Jodie Snyder the JO to the DANNIJO jewelry line. 

       What i took away the most from this weekend would have to be that every single lecture that we listened to was that this road to the glamourous does not start off glamorous. It requires hard work and to really succeed you must network and be open to meeting lots of new people. 

So my overall weekend i loved every last person i connected with and all the great advice and coming very soon all of my blogging  and hard work and effort will pay off. 

so until next time ....au' voir  instagram for more pictures
