Moving on up...

I recently had the opportunity to attend a private MAC class with Senior Artist Tiffany Johnston. I learned a lot about makeup, trends and techniques that day but I took away something from that class I am not sure any of the other attendees might have caught. Tiffany was speaking about what it is like to work backstage at fashion week and shared the following... (and Tiffany, if you somehow come across this I apologize if I am not quoting you word for word!)
 "When I first started in this business, it was very selective of who was able to go backstage. Nowadays, you can have a blogger from Austin standing next to the editor of Vogue! Bloggers are important. Vogue is only going to reach vogue readers, but bloggers reach all kinds of people. They are taking information right back to the consumer, the most important part."
 As an aspiring hairstylist and a blogger I found that extremely encouraging and I thought some of you might too, especially you darling little fashion bloggers. Hope it helps you feel important in this big ol blogging world!
 And if you ever get the chance to attend an event with Tiffany, jump on it! She is a great speaker, smart, beautiful and super talented. I am so grateful I am attending a school that makes these sort of opportunities available for me!
