I went and met with my designer that is helping me out, Antonio Wingfield, today and officially signed contracts to start my upcoming fashion line!

I am super excited and our launch date will be June 1, 2009!!!

Thank you ladies (and gentlemen) that gave me your advice, suggestions/and help! My website is up and running if you go to my myspace you will see the link. I will be updating it throughout the week with more information.

Tonight I will be celebrating with friends. If anybody still would like to give suggestions, please fell free!

Wow my dreams are turning into a reality... it's about time!

I'm excited! Not only for the clothes, but for you reaching your dreams :wheelchair:

Good luck. I'm sure it'll be hard work, but from what I've seen & read about you, you seem like a determined girl when it comes to anything! :)

Aggzy, thanks for the offer, however I already have my website up. :) we're still updating right now but it's on my myspace. Not really sure what the rules are for this forum on sharing different websites.

I'll keep you in mind if things should change though...
