My Voice

My name is Shannen Shine, I am attending the Art Institute Of Las Vegas majoring in Fashion Retail Management and working on achieving my Bachelors In Science. I have many goals in life and one major one is to become a stylist when I finish school. I've always loved fashion and the arts and want to have a career doing something that I love. Being a stylist would mean that I would be in charge of anything from identifying the location for a photo shoot, to picking the wardrobe for a magazine's fashion spread, to pulling outfits for clients to wear at events. Once I have more experience under my belt of course I hope to become an independent stylist. “I think there is beauty in everything. What ‘normal’ people would perceive as ugly, I can usually see something of beauty in it.” — Alexander McQueen. It takes a person with a good eye to see something normal people would think is ugly and see beauty in it. That's the mindset I think people have to have if you want to pursue something in fashion. In the meantime I enjoy continuing to learn about the business that one day I want to be apart in. Each in every day that I have class I learn new and interesting things about the business. I can feel my mind growing and expanding when taking in all this amazing information. Fashion is a way people express themselves. Marc Jacobs once said " clothes mean nothing until someone lives in them" Until you step inside an outfit thats when those clothes really become alive.
