I really love accessories. I don’t really know where it came from. My parents are big collectors of stuff so I was always used to going to flea markets and looking at things. It was always fun to look through stuff and find that thing you like in the bottom of a barrel. One of my favorite things to do was, from junior high school on I would go to Wet Seal and go crazy in their accessories section. I would buy sh*t that I’d never wear. I really had an obsession. Plus, jewelry is fun. It’s open. You don’t have to worry about seasons, going out of style and all that annoying talk.
And Annie's got some words of wisdom for anyone out there trying to make dollars out of dreams in today's day and age.
For anyone that wants to pursue a passion, do whatever makes you happy. I wasn’t happy, and if you’re not happy in one place it’s going to trickle down to everything else in your life. Make a change, and if you really want to do something different then work on it, figure it out and just try to do it. Owning your own business is going to be the thing of the future. If you can make money off of it then study it and figure it out because in the end, it will be a great payoff.
Well said, Annie!
