I am so excited for one of my best friends, Polly! Polly is a senior at the University of Illinois, majoring in costume design. She runs an online vintage/antique/handmade store on etsy, as well as a blog-but recently, she has been offered actual store space! I am so excited for her-she is 23 years old and is going to be running an actual clothing/antique business. It will be located in the same building as Bella on South Neil Street.
If you are interested in seeing her work, designs, and writing- here's a link to her blog. pollybland.com
PS- she was recently interviewed and had an interview published in the News-Gazette. It was about her store, dreams, and what she does. I was on set for the set photos, and was photographing her models. A photographer from the News-Gazette came to snap photos to be shown in the article. If you'd like to give it a read, here is the link to the online version: http://www.news-gazette.com/news/people/2012-10-08/fashionistabloggers-sights-are-being-someone-world-style.html
She has inspired me so much and has always been such a sweet friend to me, and I am incredibly happy for her. Her dreams are coming true! Hard work definitely pays off.
I love you :))
