Push it, push it real good.

I just discovered this new TV show on fiver and i had to blog about it! If you haven't seen it, you can catch up on old episodes here.
It's basically about a girl who moves to London to pursue a career in fashion journalism. The outfits are amazing, here are a couple of my favourites:

Let me introduce myself.

I'm a little bit obsessed with fashion.
Unlike with a lot of other people, i never considered myself interested in fashion when i was growing up. No, for me it started when i reached my teens. I was having a hard time, life wasn't going the way i hoped it would, and i needed something to really devour my emotions. So on May 14th, I went to the mall, picked up a copy of Vogue and sat in a field near my house and started flicking through. I can say with much confidence that this was the moment that really changed my life. I remember tracing my fingers over the words, staring in awe at pictures of beautiful models and feeling as though my legs were about to give way more and more as i turned each glossy page.
From that moment on, i felt i belonged. I felt i finally had something to help me struggle through my life, and most importantly, it was at this moment that i discovered a love for fashion that poured into my entire life. I started smiling again. Fashion literally saved me.
My favourite thing about fashion? There are no limits. The answer is never no. There's a place for everyone in the fashion world. I believe that fashion is not only a collection of different trends, but it is a documentation of ones life. Fashion is whatever you want it to be.
Four years on and I'm gazing at my laptop screen, typing up my first ever blog post with a large cup of coffee and some classic rock playing in the background. Style by Steph, for me, will be a place to release my thoughts and musings on just about anything! I'm not a professional, i don't really have a clue what I'm doing. I'm just Steph, a 16 year old girl with a love of fashion that goes far beyond the clothes i wear, the way i style my hair or the magazines i read.
For me, this is a new beginning, care to join me?
