So many places to shop and eat that I truly believe that no two stores have the same thing. Monday I went to Rumors Boutique, a local store within walks of the VCU campus owned and operated by Casey Longyear, a VCU graduate. <br />
<br />
<br />
I’ve heard of the store many times and even walked past it on my way to class, but had never been in until this Monday. Most of the items were very low-priced which is always a good thing for a college student. The most expensive item was $15. Not only do they sell really unique clothing, but they also buy from students. Definitely plan on shopping there more often! <br />
<br />
Here are some pictures of what I bought as well as what the store looked like:<br />

<br />
For the past week, I have been sick and also lost my voice so I couldn't conduct any interviews. After speaking to a few people about my opportunity to write for FBYA and where I could get stories, someone mentioned I could sit in the Pollak Building. The Pollak Building is where Fashion, Interior and Graphic Design students work on their assignments and create their art. While I was there I found a few inspiring and breathtaking photos. I wish I could have stayed longer, but I had a class coming up. There will definitely be more updates, sitting in the Pollak Building was a nice little getaway.<br />

"The Secret Garden"<div style="text-align: center;">Well, I, CJ Johnson, Founder and Executive Director of, Fashion Benefiting Youth Artists, is writing this acknowledgement. Simply because I am so pleased to have had such an amazing crew and support from local retailers and business owners. On sunday, October 25, our crew set out to create "The Secret Garden." We took over 800 shoots and it proved to be much more laborious to narrow it down to 20! Our Fashion Editor Intern, Haley, did an awesome job and worked til the midnight hour, to select her top shots. This shoot went from a mere idea, to pitching it to local retailers (thanks to those that saw our vision and believed in it), to a model casting call to a styling session with the chosen models, to THE BIG DAY, to post production. We learned so very much, but are already mapping out our next shoot, so stay tuned...<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b> </b> <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">1. How long have you been running your store/selling your clothing online?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Our web shop has been operating for about two years now and we just opened<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">up a brick and mortar store off of South Congress about six months ago to<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">create a tangible space for our Austin customers.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">2. Have you always been interested in fashion?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">All things creative have always inspired and intrigued me, fashion being one<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">of them. I haven't always thought to be a store owner and surely, that's not<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">the boundaries of limitations I put on myself but yes, fashion has been a<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">strong interest of mine throughout my life.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">3. Do you plan to expand Buy Definition or keep it more local to the <br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Austin area?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Our web shop reaches everyone around the world, especially with our flat<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">rate shipping making it that much more reasonable. Austin is a very special<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">town to me and currently I would like to focus my energy here and our<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">e-commerce site.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">4. How did you get involved in fashion?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It's all about chasing your dream. After graduating from college I moved to<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">New York City for about 10 months to intern at a Fashion PR company. I<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">learned a lot about the industry and about myself and it gave me a more<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">distinct idea of what and who I wanted to be in the industry.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">5. What would you say to a young student who aspires to do what you're <br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">doing today?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Don't lose that creative energy and keep inventing and re-inventing<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">yourself. Remember that there are no limitations and as cheesy as it sounds,<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I believe no things to be impossible so dream on! <br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">What does a 23 year old college student majoring in business administration do in his spare time? Spin music at local events, hang out with friends - oh and last but not least, design a clothing line. Esmel Meeks AKA DJ Rock-It, a Virginia Commonwealth University student who was born in Philadelphia, raised in the California Bay Area and now calls his hometown Virginia Beach, Virginia, has been designing since he was in the 11<sup>th</sup> grade where he came up with his first logo concept. Today his line, Ancient Thread Empire, most commonly referred to as ATE, has been featured in Richmond Fashion Week 2009, GroupMODA 2009 and for the past two years, STRUT, one of the biggest fashion shows in Virginia. </span><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">When asked what inspired him to create his clothing line, Meeks said “[I wanted] To start something new for the right reason. Not to start a trend, not to recreate a fad that died out, not to start off where somebody ended, but to create something unique that people would embrace not only because of the unique designs and concepts but the reason behind it. Through the designs in ATE you can see inspirations from everyday lifestyle, childhood muse, and the culture evolving throughout inimitable generation."<br />
</span><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Meeks likes to go by a quote from his favorite lyricist, Nas who has said “No idea’s original, there's nothing new under the sun. It's never what you do but how it's done."</span><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">“I know that nothing is really original. I try to find a way to do something that hasn't done before in every design. Putting different elements into concepts that isn't ‘supposed to be there’ and making it look intriguing.”</span><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Residents of the VCU/Richmond area can find his designs exclusively at the store Need Supply in the historic shopping area in Richmond named Carytown. In December, he has plans on opening an online store. <br />
</span><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">When asked in a perfect world, where he would like to see his clothing line in 5 years, Meeks replied “In our exclusive boutique stores in 8 locations: VA Beach, Richmond, LA, NY, Japan, Paris, and London. Also to have a portion of every sale donated to, Achievements Through Education, a scholarship fund that will assist under-privileged students with tuition. He states, "at that point we will be sending over 100 students to college on full scholarship every year.”</span><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Jane from the immensely popular blog, seaofshoes.com, graciously agreed to an interview with us recently and this is a glimpse of her take on her inspiration, life, and her blog...<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">1.What inspired you to start the blog, Sea of Shoes? Why the emphasis on shoes?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Sea of Shoes started as a weekend project. I was inspired by my favorite blogs, Kingdom of Style and<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://stylebubble.typepad.com/">Style Bubble</a>. I chose shoes as the emphasis because I collect them.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">2. What are your influences (fashion, life in general)? <br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">My influences for fashion are the 70's and 80, style icons, Tina Chow and Bianca Jagger, and fashion photographer Helmut Newton. My influence for life in general is, Yves St. Laurent. His beliefs about aesthetics translated to every aspect of his life.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">3. What are your career aspirations? Journalism, design, etc.?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">I would love to design shoes someday, but I am also considering working as a buyer or brand consultant.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">4. What are your favorite blogs, websites, magazines?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://luxirare.com/">Luxirare.com</a>, <a href="http://garancedore.com/">Garancedore.com</a>, <a href="http://purplediary.com/">Purplediary.com</a>. My favorite magazine is; Paradis<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">5. What has been your biggest challenge with your blog and what have you learned since its inception about blogging, journalism?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">My biggest challenge with my blog has been managing my correspondence, finding time to create quality content for my blog and coping with my fear of flying for all the traveling I have to do. Thanks to my blog I have learned that journalism is not for me.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">6. What advice would you give an aspiring blogger?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">I would tell them to take a point of view that sets them apart from other fashion bloggers. With so many fashion blogs around these days, it is hard to stand out. If you want to blog about travel, food, personal style, etc. I would suggest investing in a good camera. It is a fun hobby to pick up and the results are very gratifying.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">7. What school do you attend?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">I am enrolled in Westlake Academy<br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">*Jane's blog was recently cited in the November issue of, Instyle Magazine, as one of the most respected fashion blogs* Visit: <a href="http://seaofshoes.com/">seaofshoes.com</a><br />

</style>Onli1 Boutique is bringing Dallas indie designers an outlet that is needed. Located in the burgeoning Bishop Arts District, they provide a space where local indie designers can sell their designs in a brick and mortar shop on a consignment basis.<br />
<br />
Audie Mills, the proprietor and a designer, wanted to open a retail space where indie designers can have an outlet where they can expose their brand and grow their businesses. Audrie, herself a designer that primariliy designs custom apparel for private clients, cites her own frustrations as a designer when she was establishing her design business. Not many boutiques want to take on that designer that makes apparel in their living rooms.<br />
<br />
But now, if you are a local indie designer, you have one more option, contact Audrie Mills. The boutique presents showcases and intimate fashion shows for local indie designers as well.<br />
<br />
Oh, and come to their Halloween "Through the Decades" Costume Party, October 31, 10pm until! <br />
<br />

He will be strolling through this week to showcase his Spring 2010 collection at the Two By Two for Aids and Art event benefiting, AMFAR, this Thursday, October, 22! In addition, he will be causing I am sure, a raucous stir among the heel clad set, myself included, at <a href="http://fortyfiveten.com/">Forty Five Ten</a> where he be present for a trunk show of his Spring 2010 collection, this Friday and Saturday, October 23 and October 24, from 12p to 4p.
