So much has happened over the last month that I am at quite a loss as to what I should base this post on. Politically, we have finally said farewell to Julius, Helen Zille rode the Argus and a brave bunch of Americans have decided to bring a stop to Joseph Kony, to name a few. Personally, I choose to go with it. This may seem as though I show little interest or care in what is going on in our world but that is quite the contrary. I have become slightly irritated at my own generation. It seems as though the minute there is any introduction of a new quest to help out the less fortunate, it is immediately assumed that these people are a) evil conspirators aiming to build a cult etc. or b) they are trying to reap all the rewards for themselves. Is this what society has come to? Is it that hard to believe that there are actually good people out there wanting to make a difference? I am referring to "Kony 2012" as I assume many of you have guessed. I have read all the articles, all the conspiracies made about this movement from both sides, and I just can't seem to disagree with what they are trying to do, in fact I am completely envious of their courage to take on one of the most evil dictators of all time, I sure as hell wouldn’t. So instead of questioning EVERYTHING, why don’t we all try and focus on the positive and maybe get involved...Just go with it.
On a lighter note, my collection is on the go ahead and I am extremely inspired and motivated. This week we are starting with our first garments, daunting, but exciting. I am looking forward to creating a collection that is ready to wear in winter and can then be transformed into a spring look. I reckon we should bring colour into this year’s winter fashions, keep things bright even when the weather wants to tell us something different.
