We Made It, One Whole Year!!

Hello, World!

A thrilling (and almost always frightening) journey through the internet it has been. And I have got to admit, I am completely and utterly proud of myself for stating a project and finishing it! 

A quick look back at 3 of my favorite looks from the year

Wearing my absolute favorite top from Elan USA. I obsess over the look of mixing multiple prints.

Capitol F began with the need to keep myself busy through the dreary winter months, to stay motivated, creative and most of all, to stay stylish. Beginning this project was a huge excitement which led me to a few mistakes along the way. Hopefully I have learned by now. 

Picture after picture of endless amateur style shots, I began to feel overwhelmed with the pressure I put on myself. I often looked at other bloggers, well established in their craft, and thought I needed to play at their level. I soon realized I was rushing quantity and COMPLETELY skipping the quality. Feeling stuck, I took a break to figure my shit out. And I soon did. 

The back story of a brand, where it all began, the research and process of developing wearable art, it was never about style to begin with. Within starting my blog, I had forgotten my back story and I was the one who got caught up trying to be like everyone else. It's a game really, all of this blogging and until you figure it out, it's a trial and error process. I had deleted everything I had done and started over. Now, were right where we should be, giving you a look at the brand, not just a sick pair of shoes.

Not enough to call it a life changing/altering/enhancing experience BUT Capitol F taught me one big lesson: Scare the world. Be exactly who you say you are and tell the truth. 

My article on brand, Johnny Was, was top charts on my ratings. Being my most popular post of the year gives me that tingling feeling, deep in my bones that tells me kicking 2017's ass will be a royal pleasure. Johnny Was repeats itself on my instagram quite a bit. The brand and quality of it keeps my wardrobe funky with a dash of polished. Tap the link and view the entire article! 

Fun fact! I go wild for "blooper" photos and if you've ever modeled for me then you know all too well I love to make sure I capture every one of them! More than half the takes in my camera per look turn out something like this, I just can't stop dan…

Science + Art

My brand is the science and my photos are the art.

The year 2016 was eye opening but 2017 will be life changing. It's an arbitrary clean slate, a time to believe and dream big again, and an opportunity to clean up all of the messes I made in 2016. January is actually my favorite month of the year. There will be no resolutions for me, only goals. Goals to experience change, to say "Yes" as often as possible, to feel joy every day. 

Writing is a process, a journey into memory and the soul. This year, Capitol F brings to you more than clothes after they hit the runway. Stick around! I've got menswear coming soon!
