Make It Your Career
If this is truly your one passion in life, it's becoming increasingly easier (not to mention, more profitable!) to make fashion your career. Depending on your area of interest, whether it's writing, styling, designing, or even researching (yep, looking at blogs all day can be your career), you may find that you'll have to take a few classes first. Many universities offer associate degrees to help give you a leg up before you apply. And internships, most of which nowadays are paid and don't require you receive credit (like our own!), are a great way to get some experience, if you have the time to spare.

And if you've started a blog that's starting to take off, think about placing ads on your site, looking into partnership opportunities with brands, and other ways to turn your blog into a source of revenue. But remember — if you've plotted out your fashion ethics in advance, you should have opinions about how you feel about the marriage of content and advertising. Don't let an advertising opportunity confuse you.
