It is the ability to recognize, and appreciate beauty. Beauty in all things: life, love, happiness, and even remorse. Glamour is being able to wear what makes you feel most content and happy without fear of judgment or what others may say. NEVER dressing for anyone, but yourself. Glamour is more than just being dripped in diamonds, it's an awareness of the world around you and how positively or negatively it impacts you. Don't buy a dress solely because its Bottega Veneta, don't buy a scarf because it's Hermes. Buy it because it's art, and it fills you with joy. Look past the label and appreciate it for the love and care that went into making the garment. And always trust your gut if you know something is not right, don't follow the crowd, have the courage to be your own trendsetter, no matter what the occssian. Also, look back to the great innovators of style, such as Jackie Kennedy, Coco Chanel, Elizabeth Taylor, Aubrey Hepburn and Diahann Carrol and appreciate their grace and elegance. Even in matters of despair there can be glamour, and there's no shame in that.

GLAMOUR... WHY NOW?
As the nation faces one of the worst financial crises of its time in light of the 1930's Great Depression, people begin to lose faith in their government and themselves, in spite of living under a dark cloud for the rest of eternity, people have forgotten what matters most, glamour. Don't get this confused with matters of finance and financial stability, because truth is ANYBODY, can be glamorous! Whether one lives in a shack or a mansion, whether one cleans toilets for a living or manages hedge funds, glamour is not exclusive to any one particular group of people. To obtain glamour one must have a natural charm, a way of entering a room to make everyone feel special. One with glamour has a natural way with words as they do with style. Style is not trend, nor is it exclusively Dolce & Gabanna.
