MY IDOL

i've been watching married to rock on E! and i have to say i'm loving josie stevens. when you first see her you're like "oh dear lord what did her daddy do to her?" i assumed she must be crazy insecure - a caricature of everything that's wrong with LA. but now it seems like she just is who she is and doesn't care what other people think. she's a fairly successful make-up artist and playboy model and she is unabashedly dedicated to her trashy, pink, hello kitty aesthetic. a couple of months ago i was advised by an extremely important person in the fashion industry to tone down my designs, to be more tasteful and less over-the-top and as a result my biggest account skipped the season (i have since revised the collection to be more "me"). the most important thing for any designer is to have a point of view and to push it no matter what trends or advice come along. like josie
