Sometimes ago, i over heard "No is an invitation to work harder," and I liked it. Not because I don't think that we are all already working hard enough. I liked it because it's such a good attack on the toxic mindset of  "They said no, so now it's over." Launching, running, and growing a fashion business is a life-long exercise in hearing the word "no." From buyers. From partners. From factories. From customers. From suppliers. Everything running smoothly is not a realistic goal. What is a realistic goal is to adopt the mindset that hearing "no" is simply an invitation to work harder on the things you believe in. By this I mean, when that buyer says "No," don't delete the email thread and sulk. Instead, ask why. Ask for feedback in order to improve your offering or to get a better idea of their customer so you can decide if this store really was as great of a fit as you thought. When you hear "No...

Ralph Lauren is a native New Yorker born in 1939. The designer is best known for his ability to create lifestyle dressing. He was born Ralph Rueben Lifshitz, the son of Jewish refugees from Eastern Europe. As a young child, he exhibited a sense of style. Ralph and his brother could often be found thrift-shop hunting; it was here that Ralph discovered fashion as a means of identity transformation. Lauren began his design career with his 1967 tie collection, Polo, a division of Beau Brummel Company. The line was adopted by Bloomingdales. In 1968, Lauren and the name Polo joined forces with Norman Hilton, a men’s suit maker. Never timid to expand, Lauren created full lines of mens and women’s apparel. Possessing a keen sense of fashion marketing, Lauren understood the power of branding early in his career and his “polo player” logo is one of the most recognized logos throughout the world. Inspired by the colors of M&M candies, Lauren offered his famous polo shirts in th...

     It's quite surprising when people are praying so to say for big opportunity and big problem show's up. Hear this ; Problem is opportunity in disguise.     Your ability to succeed is in direct proportion to your ability to solve your problems. I recently read ↓ somewhere; If I’m being honest, I had to teach myself how to get good at being decisive with solving problems. And it’s still something I struggle with. I’m a classic "what-if’er" and it has bitten me in the ass more than once. And I know that I’m not alone in this. Creative people entering into the world of business tend to be way more contemplative; "perfectionists" (not a real thing, in my opinion) that don’t always have the experience or the personality type to make swift business decisions. And because of this, our problems don’t get solved, which keeps us from making any progress. It’s not an insult, just an observation. The issue is that it’s important to get good at problem solving; ...

 Dear Designers, Business is an ongoing process. Nothing is the way you want it to be as you plan in the beginning. Nothing is perfect. And that’s OK. It is part of our job as business owners to keep improving. Listen to me, I know that impatiently striving for "completion" is something we all do sometimes. We think there’s this magical point to reach at which we will  have figured it all out and things will just run smoothly. The secret is, there is no such point. With growth comes change. And with change comes maintenance. I think one of the most liberating realizations we can come upon is that our businesses will always be a work in progress. Even when you’re making a million. Even when you’ve got a team of ten. When we change our feeling of "When I finally get to particular point, all will be well" to the feeling of "This will always be a work in progress", we are able to calm down and enjoy it. There’s an ease that sets over us when we realize tha...

One thing I notice in fashion businesses is the inability for the designers to believes in their selves as a business people, and this is one of the biggest hurdles in the growth of our businesses since there is lack of confidence in ourselves as a designer.  We tend to assume that we need to bend to what others are asking, instead of owning our worth as smart, capable, adaptable designers. The thing about not believe or having confidence in ourselves as a designer is that it keeps us from doing the things we should be doing in our business; the things that will make us a good designer. Things like competing with self, challenging ourselves, and being decisive. Anyway, It's all about mindset. But certain thing i know is, If we don't believe that we have or we can learn the technical know-how to lead our business into growth, then we won't lead our business into growth.Just as simple as that. I'm not saying that it isn't important to listen to others...

The just concluded 2018 Screen Actors Guild Awards red carpet was first of it kind in the beauty verse of fashion chapter. From bold and bright lipsticks to playful hair moments even better from the back, there was plenty to keep you inspired. Below, see all the standout hair and makeup moments of the evening. MILLIE BOBBY BROWN Black ribbon-adorned double buns, glitter eye-shadow, and bubblegum pink lipstick make the Stranger Things Star look every bit the tween style icon she's become. YARA SHAHIDI A bold berry lip and glowing, flawless skin complemented the real highlight of the Grown-ish Star's look : her voluminous curls. HALLE BERRY Berry's bronzed makeup look was stunning, but it's her hair that really deserved a moment. The high pony was even better from the back, where you could see it's actually two-tiered and tousled just right. LUPITA NYONG'O Luminescent skin was the standout point of Nyong'o's beauty look, wh...
