I've contemplated deleting my blog so many times. <BR/>I guess I just try to think of it as not loving 'fashion' but more as having admiration for all forms of art. <BR/>In the end, fashion is JUST A HOBBY for me, because there are so many more things in my life that are important to me than how good I look.<BR/><BR/>Laura xxPUG and PIPShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04258398073284596701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7503105193693831680.post-70049973350942237782009-02-07T14:31:00.000-05:002009-02-07T14:31:00.000-05:00Ah ha!
