Well today I was thinking, although a non-binary clothing brand is something that I feel is needed, I also feel that a lot of individuals lack the confidence to actually wear the clothes they would like to, out in public. So I have a confession.... Although I can wear just about anything out of the house, I am still always on very high alert when I am dressed in an untraditional kind of way. For my photo shoots I have always tried to stay just outside of the main public eye, but.... I WANT TO CHANGE THAT! I hope that I can inspire you as well, along the way!!! So from here on out, I have suggested to my photographers, George & Barry, that I want to start shooting my outfits in public spaces with a much higher volume of people & strangers. My hope is that by sharing these photos along with my experiences, people who feel nervous about being in a public space will be inspired to venture out of the house in their favorite clothes as well, even if its not a very traditional look! So, here is the first one! I was actually texting a friend who was meeting me at the mall, but I also was trying not to make to much eye contact because I was nervous about what I was wearing, plus I had a camera on me. Lol. But, I think this was the best shot! More to come! Xoxo -Elliott Alexzander
