This is dedicated to my Meemaw, whose affinity for buying me skirts that my parents found to be "too short" seamlessly coincided with her constant exuberance of classiness as she "cooly" emphasized mutually important modesty to her young, impressionable grand-daughter. Thank you for infinite access to a wardrobe--your closet--that boasts both the highest of fashion and trendy thrift store finds; and, for supporting all of my crazy ideas and goals...including getting my MBA.
How much impact does fashion have on the business world? Seemingly not very much, as MBAs and Wall Street gurus don their daily uniform that is the business suit. At 25 years old, and getting my MBA, I wanted to combine my interest in kicking my drab black blazer to the curb with that of fashionable financier. This fashion blog is not a fashion statement; it is neither a disruptive innovation, nor a cutting edge trend. However, it is a commentary on how a seemingly superficial industry--such as high fashion--effortlessly transcends the hyperbolized runway and enters into a world of big data, networks, and business smarts.
