Little Black Dress Challenge

Hi guys, so I wasn't going to do this but, I must share with you all the ups and downs of the fashion world. So last week Phoenix Fashion Week announced their third annual Little Black Dress Challenge sponsered by the Art Institute of Phoenix. The challenge was to sketch a little black dress it could be short or a gown, and people vote via social media for the top four then you move on to the second round where you actually desing the drsess. On October you showcase the dess on Phoenix fashion week the guest will vote once again and the first prize winner wins $1000 and the runner up wins $500. I was thrilled to once again try you see last year I tried out for it but I never blogged about it because I was sad I didn't make it to the top four.

So few hours ago they announced the top ten via FaceBook, and what do you know, once again I did not make it :-( I'm an emotional mess I must confess, I just don't know where I've gone wrong. I see the finalist and I'm sorry to say but some of them are not that great. I know I know I should suck it up and move on but I just thought I'd vent here on my blog! Anywho, congrats to those who made it I'm happy for you all. (Here's a link of those who made it if your intrested in seeing http://on.fb.me/1ptP72j )
Here is the original sketch I submitted to them, perhaps someday I will design it in real life.

Thanks for your support.

I am soaking up every moment and making memories with them because I want them to always remember all the good TIMES we've experienced. Thanks to JORD on my wrist, it is a daily reminder to cherish my precious time. JORD is based in St. Louis.
