20 Somethings and the City! » design http://20somethingandthecity.com/blog1 It’s fun. It’s flirty. It’s confusing. It’s dirty, those ten years before 30. It’s going through change. It’s laughter. It’s pain, and it’s walking in the rain. It’s swimming when it’s sunny. It’s when you really need the money and your choices are funny. It’s time to learn from one another. Help a sister, help a brother, so one day we’ll all say that we are sitting pretty. The world is ours for the taking: 20 Somethings and the City.

The fashion industry is one of the biggest industries on the planet, since most of the worlds’ population are no longer walking the path of the uncivilized, we are most often, when out in public, going to be found wearing some form of clothing. Clothing can be anything from what you have to wear, uniforms, to what you want to wear, but inevitably you will wear it.

I love Fashion. It is glamorous. It is fun and the fashion game is something you can partake of at whatever level you can afford. If you are into what is referred to as “High Fashion” big name designers and expensive goods, than there is nothing better to do than go to New York Fashion Week in NYC. It is wear all the stars are, stars of the fashion industry and the entertainment industry as well, I mean who do you think is really going to walk outside in half pf the outfits displayed on the runway? Certainly not the average everyday person, however if you want to know where Prince got his idea to wear buttless pants, or why Lady Gaga thought that the last outfit you saw her in was fierce or what different actresses were thinking when they let their stylists convince them they should wear that dress that Joan Rivers coursed and spat at, well Fashion week is the culprit.

The NYC fashion shows are full of dynamic, theatrical outfits paired with outlandish make-up and hair more often than not and most of it, I wouldn’t get caught walking down the street in, but to trained eyes, like those of the buyers from major department stores and fabulous boutiques, the outfits can be dispersed and each piece can be reassembled to create more mainstream, yet fabulous looks.

Although the shows are full of crazy artistic ensembles, you have to appreciate the creativity behind the presentations. Besides in the end, I think that we all wish that when we went to work that the people making their presentations would be half as interested in entertaining those of us in the room as these designer and producers do.

For those people who were unable to attend NYC Fashion Week 2010. Here are the video of a few of the shows which you missed and I tried to include some wearable,”ready to wear” fashions for those of us who can’t put the theatrics aside for ourselves.

So, go ahead and enjoy: Spring Summer 2010 NYC Fashion Week!

Now that I’ve begun my 30’s, I can tell one and all that even with all the time and preparation put into me becoming a well-rounded and educated adult, my 20’s were still the hardest times of my life.
It was fun, yet chaotic and filled with so many, “what ifs”, and, what Charles Dickens referred to as ” The best of times and the worst of times”, but what got me through those times and will continue to elevate me are my friends, my family and a slew of books, magazine articles, t.v. shows, movies, and music created by the most talented people of our generation and generations past. 
   
   This time in our lives is an era that will set the foundation for who we are going to be and what we are going to achieve, as individuals and as a group. I want this website to be a meeting of the minds and a source of positivity for us, a place for us to get things off of our chest, and solve problems, a place for us to be honest about ourselves and our world, because it is through respect, honesty, and communication that we will make change. We can support each other and express our passionate, driven, semi-depressed, creative selves and create the light at the end of the tunnel.

   Our generation inherits many wonderful technologies and all of the problems that go along with them.  We both benefit and suffer from what our parents’ and grandparents’ generations have done before we arrived, but our time is here and we’ve got things to do, and a whole lot to say.

Think, Speak, Write and Unite!
Sincerely,

Sherrae
