The Beginning

This is the beginning of something new. I am not the greatest writer in the world, I do not have the best grammar or use of the English language but I do love clothing and everything about it. Since the beginning of time I thought that I would have one child and that was going to be a little girl. When I first found out I was pregnant I just knew I was going to have a girl. I picked girl decor, a girl name, and I had my eye on girl clothing. However God saw differently and I had a little boy. Keenan Nasir.  God makes no mistakes so it did not take long for me to hand over the hurt of not having a girl and when I did I decided I was going to invest just as much in that little boy as I did with the thought of a girl. When I was able to buy clothes I went in!

I know some will think that I am trying to pimp my child or not allow him to be a kid and you are entitled to your thoughts. However, I think more of clothing. The right outfit gives you confidence, it portrays your personality, and it speaks volumes to who you are. I see fashion as another form of art. I want his clothing to mold him in all those areas. In having fun dressing him nicely I realized that when we go to look for girls clothing, THEY HAVE IT ALL!!!! Little boys take work and an effort that some are not willing to apply. However, I found it to be effortless. As nice as I keep Keenan most of his clothing comes from 2nd hand stores. I am a Kid to Kid, Once Upon a Child, Thred Up Mother. Everything I post won’t be new or I many not even be able to provide links to it. But I can give you ideas and you can go to some of these same resale shops and make your shopping experience just as effortless as I do. That does not mean that everything will be cheap or that I won’t have some expensive items. I do realize that I probably spend more on my child than the average person but….my cost comes from abundance and never that I actually spend a lot of money. However, as reviews and freebies come the price point could vary as I have seen some pieces I could not pass up and I spent more than normal but I will try to keep the sales reports coming.

In addition, I am a mother now. He is a child and he does go to day care. My child is not on the red carpet every day of the week so for now the fashion updates are for the weekend. But being a mother I have to stay motivated the best way possible so I also want to give some glam tips for the mothers every now and then and also keep you all motivated along the way. Thus far being a mom has not been as trying as I first thought it would be but we all need a little motivation so look for it along the way. Hopefully I can motivate some of you while trying to motivate myself.

Anyhooooo….Hopefully now you know the the story behind this blog and the unfolding of the whole story will be a journey we take together.

Thank you for your love and support.

A mother to Keenan Nasir, I wanted to try something new. God blessed me with a little boy and I found I was good at styling him. Most women dream of little girls with dressed and bows. I did, but God gave me a boy and I wanted to make him as fashionable as the little girl I dreamed of. View all posts by thesophisticatedboy
