The September Issue

I feel like I have to reintroduce myself.  It has been so long since I last blogged.  I should probably give an explanation as to why I wasn’t able to blog very much this summer.  I was busy this summer working, spending time with family, and having fun with family.  I had a great summer and now it is time to have a great fall!  Soon it will officially be fall and I simply cannot wait.  I love every season but I look forward to the ending of a season and to the beginning of another.  And just like every other fall I am really looking forward to this one.  This fall I think my wardrobe will have huge changes! This is a great time for me to make changes to my wardrobe because “September is the January in fashion.”  Just like every January 1^st when we make new year’s resolutions we can make what I like to think of as “fashion resolutions.” These “fashion resolutions” should be made in September because this is the month when we make the transition from summer to fall, it is the month when we feel the change in the weather.  And my favorite thing about September… THE SEPTEMBER ISSUE.  I look forward to picking up all of my September magazines.  They are sooo FAT and full of inspiration, and information that my brain thrives for.    I have very recently watched a movie appropriately called The September Issue.  It is, as you can assume, a documentary about all the work that goes into making the September issue at Vogue. The magazine made in the documentary is the September issue of 2008.  Although it is a few years dated it was a very interesting film that I absolutely loved.  It follows the editor of Vogue  (Anna Wintour) around and shows a very close glimpse into her job.  I recommend this documentary to any fashion LOVER.  It is a film that you will have to see for yourself.  If you cannot watch it and really want to know more about it comment letting me know if you want a critical analysis from me.  If you have already watched it comment with your opinions I would love to hear them. 

This September allow CHANGE to enter your wardrobe.  Take risks and try not to care about what others think.  I can assure you that I will be taking fashion risks this fall with things such patterned pants (I will let you know how it goes.)  Start new this September. Remember if you love fashion or even if you don’t September can be a new year for you because in the fashion world we have just jumped into this year. It is still just the beginning  of September you can still go out and buy new pieces for your wardrobe, you  can still find some September issues and you can start making fashion resolutions and goals.  Let fall come in and let it inspire you in any way that it may.
