You never know who will pop back into your life or how they’ve shaped your path without you realizing it. A J.Crew stylist who dressed my 7 year old self? Just photographed his wedding. My high school fashion teacher? She’s the reason I can sew (and haven’t paid for tailoring ever). A former Disney Princess coworker? Her company’s products are now in my alma mater years after I pitched the idea in high school. Life has a way of bringing people full circle, proving that the past isn’t just memories…it’s the foundation of what’s next.
