McQueen and Going Green

1 Man.

4 months.

Infinite ideas.

Please check back on Friday the 14th for a mini bio. of the late (and great) Alexander McQueen.

A lot has happened in the past week, including meeting the wonderful Jane Goodall twice, and getting a fantastic internship with ACE, an organization that works to spread awareness about and to stop global warming. I'm very excited, for the internship involves me blogging about "Green" fashion trends, events, etc. which will be posted here on The Purple Boot!

Irony?: On February 11, 2010, designer and genius Alexander McQueen hung himself in his home in England. 1 day later, February 12, 2010, Haiti suffered one of the most tragic earthquakes in history. Coincidence? Possibly, but I personally prefer to believe that the Earth was mourning the loss of the creative genius. Please do not take this as me not taking the Haitian devastation seriously, because I do, and I hope that readers and people in general realize it as well--even though it's already been 4 months, the aftershock is still haunting the country that has lost everything as well as the world. Tomorrow, take a moment to remember all who have been effcted by disasters, and do something about it. Take action. Love your world. xoxo, CB.
