Ciara is a fashionista who works wardrobe in the film industry. These are her words:
/// "A warrior woman is someone who fights for her desires, her passions, her family. She takes a stand and takes care of herself and her responsibilities. Warrior women support those who need it.”
What does fashion mean to you?
I use fashion as a way to connect with people on a daily basis. I try to smile and make eye contact with those around me, you never know what someone is going through and I WANT PEOPLE TO FEEL NOTICED. An easy way to break the ice is to connect through clothing or other fashion choices-- I truly like to give out compliments. I can't say I'm able to shape their lives but I do use it as a way to add positivity.
/// "I believe that fashion & attitude go hand in hand. Fashion helps me become whoever I want for the day, it's sort of like a superhero's cape or mask. In order for me to give 100% I need to dress the part."
In fashion, you can never be right or wrong. There are so many rules such as when to wear white and how to dress on a first date, but every single one of those rules can and should be broken, it's about finding what works for you. FASHION IS AN EXTENSION OF ONESELF AND THERE CAN NOT BE RULES PLACED ON EXPRESSION.
/// To all women---
Don't ever feel less than or not worthy, don't ever compare your life to someone else's, you are your own competition. No one else is even in your lane, because no one knows what you know, no one on this earth can do the things you were made for.
You know what to do. You are powerful beyond all imagination and you are the only person who can block your path to happiness.
