An Early Spring at the SAG Awards

updated on

I don’t know about you, but I’ve been itching for spring to come. The inconsistent weather here in the D.C. area isn’t helping my patience. One day it’s so cold my steering wheel feels like a block of ice, and the next day I’m walking around in cropped jeans and a light jacket. The red carpet at Sunday’s SAG Awards featured exciting colors and fun florals that made me even more anxious for spring.

I love sharing stories with you that show you life is not always made up of straight lines. I’ve featured my friend Marisol Martinez on the blog before but hadn’t had a chance to tell you her “story”, which I think is a valuable one. Marisol and I went to Parsons School of Design together, each earning our B.B.A. in Design Marketing. Although we both started out thinking we’d go into fashion, her internship at a big fashion house with a truly infamous designer turned her off fashion forever. She ended up working at VHI, beginning a very successful career …
