Fashion Forward

My Story

My name is Nick Bianchi and I am a marketing major at Malone University in Canton Ohio. I grew up in a middle class family in a Cleveland suburb and I have that to thank for my love of fashion. Expressing who I am through the clothes I wear is something that I will always strive to do. I think fashion is deeper than the clothes you wear, and in fact it is about why you wear them. From the graphic above you can see that I enjoy using things that are not traditional clothing items to complete a fit (purple blanket). I categorize myself as a vintage, original fashion lover. I create most of my fits from thrift stores along with original pieces that I find at consignment shops and things of the sort. When not blogging about fashion, I listen to music and hangout with friends just as any other suburban college student. Thank you for being a part of my blog and thank you for moving fashion forward!

My Fashion Icon

Click the photo above to see my personal favorites inspired by my fashion icon A$AP Rocky. I enjoy the way he uses color and different pieces together in ways that not many others do. He has original taste and loves making a statement. That is what made me fall in love with his fashion and sense of style. I try to mirror myself after him.

Leopard print was introduced to fashion from way before the camera was invented. People viewed leopards as fierce and extremely determined. The print originally came from the actual fur of the leopard in forms of body coverings. People who wore leopard print were seen as the same (fierce and determined). Women began wearing the print around the 70s to establish their feminine power and all it meant to be a woman. Today we see leopard print as showy yet classy. Staying true to itself, the leopard print will continue to model a life of resilience and fierceness. To learn more about the leopard print and what it has meant throughout history. Check out the book titled “Fierce: The History of Leopard Print” by Jo Weldon.
