Hi Style Stars,

I come to you in a spirit of gratitude… American Style turned six months old recently (a beautiful age for a blog). I’m proud of the work that’s been published here and could not have expected how many of you would wanna be a part of it, writing your own diaries and doing crazy good reporting. I love American Style and I love you for reading it and wanting to think and see together. This is just the beginning… YAY!

In keeping with this moment of reflection, I’ve answered some of your questions in today’s letter. With my thoughts on: my style (wtf is it?), advice for young writers, advice for twenty-two-year-olds, dealing with being copied, my morning routine, my new shampoo, my new shirt, how to wear your blush to look like a painting, my first foundation, finding your calling and more.

One last thing — I’ve been working on a very big story which has needed most of me for a while, but I’ll be sharing another field report soon.

Hi Biz! To what degree do u care/think about your own style?
