Through the Looking Glass...to Hardcore

You know Darlings, in life motto's can get you very far. 

When all seems dreary and  impossible a few simple phrases muttered under your breath can get one through with an impressive amount of class. 

One saying I've always liked ( and which always seems so applicable) is 'Fake it till you make it'.

Easy to understand and easy to dismiss. 

Yeah sure, when you're feeling like crap getting all prettied up will make all your problems dissapear like a wave of a fairy godmother's wand. 

Not. 

However when you're feeling a little unsure of how to present yourself in the world, when you start your day and wonder just what to wear...

I've found a really good solution is to go hardcore. 

Deep breath, close your eyes, dive in. 

It's easy to play safe - t-shirt, jeans, jacket - rinse repeat, I know...I was there for a very long time. 

What's not easy is wearing a bright jacket, shocking heels, mixing prints and being bold. 

Being bold means all the attention's on you and you can't hide if you make any mistakes or look the tiniest bit silly. 

But you know what else it means Darlings?

It means a special thrill, a pride in knowing you're unique, a wildness that lets everyone know where you stand. 

I'm still learning and growing, becoming a little more glamorous everyday and one thing I've come to realize is in my mind the fantasy world on the other end of the looking glass is there. 

The superchic super-amazing me that lies on the other end of the looking glass is my future...and when I get there...well Darlings you'll be the first to know. 

For now, I'm going to fake it a little while longer and have a sick amount of fun while I learn. 

So for now...I'm going hardcore. 

Wish me luck Darlings, this is a special kind of incognito Wicked
