FASHION PROMOTION : ISABELLA BLOW The Century's Most Fearless Fashionista

F IS FOR “FASHION IS ABOUT EMOTION”
Blow on fashion: “Women love clothes because they mean something to them – the day you met the man you love, the day you got married, what you did before you made love to somebody. It’s psychological and tied to the spirit of woman.”

ISABELLABLOW

I IS FOR "I SIMPLY CAN'T LOOK AT YOU WITHOUT LIPSTICK"
The vibrant lip was always a part of Blow’s signature look, and she demanded that her assistants wear them. In 2005, she collaborated with MAC on a limited edition collection of lipsticks called Blow.

quotes that got me thinking ...

We were not lovers, 
we were love.
— Jeanette Winterson

You are not trying to find the answer to a question, you are simply trying to confirm something you desperately want to believe; That everyone is evil.

— Paulo Coelho, The Devil and Miss Prym


People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that’s bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they’re afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they’re wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.
— Jim Morrison

At this age, we’re often haunted by the idea that we will never amount to anything. We worry about college and what we’ll do after, what we want to do with our lives and if we’ll be successful. We lay down on our beds, staring up at a blank ceiling, wishing we could so something important, wishing that your life was a lot better and then you’ll get upset and disappointed in yourself because with what you’re doing with your life at the moment, those haunting thoughts might come true. But what are you doing to actually make sure that you’ll end up having successful and happy lives in the future?Instead of mourning all those days you’ve wasted being unproductive and not doing anything good for you or your future, get up and do something about it.Open up your textbook and make an attempt at getting an A on your next report card. Don’t put things off for later because you’re too lazy — if you do, it might become a bad habit you won’t be able to get rid of and it might affect you later on in the future when you go to college or when you get a job. Lessen the time you spend on social networking sites and the time you spend doing unproductive things, but at the same time, make sure you do to turn into a workaholic; good grades and productive days are great — but if you don’t make time for yourself, you’ll regret it. Surround yourself with people who talk about ideas, who inspire you and who are good for you. Be yourself, you won’t get anywhere in life without originality and by pretending to be someone you’re not.Help yourself as early as now. You’ll be thanking yourself in he future.- Kyra
