Freeform & Hulu are Making a Bold Statement For Fashionista's Everywhere
The bubbly, drama series is based around three powerful, like minded women, Jane (Katie Stevens), Kat (Aisha Dee) and Sutton (Meghann Fahy) who work for a fashion magazine company called Scarlet based in New York City. And you can definitely tell by their attitude and work-hungry way of going about their job that they truly really love what they do. But, sometimes they face challenges while writing a blog or giving a presentation or even asking if they can write an article.
The Bold Type is making a bold statement to women everywhere, and fans are listening. Raking in some serious bold sweet mula in just a couple of days, it has inspired women to know that it's okay to feel a little insecure and to make mistakes. Because that's what we all do right? Make mistakes? Fall down once or twice, dip our spoons into that carton of vanilla ice cream that's in your freezer, regret dipping our spoons into that carton of vanilla ice cream that's in your freezer, get up and move forward. And not only that, but learn from those mistakes as we move foward.
It may sound crazy, but the more I watch the characters on the show, the more I look at each of them as mentors. Steps towards a major confidence booster:
- Lesson one: Take Risks! Be a daredevil, whether it's upgrading to a different department or asking that crush out on a date go for it! You never know what's lurking beneath the water.
- Lesson two: Conquer the Conversation. Have a different opinion, everyone else may feel it's the wrong way but what if the wrong way is actually the right way? Never be afraid to speak your mind.
- Lesson three: Make the Statement. If you want to be known worldwide, you have to put something out there that'll have a lasting impact on people. You never know, as Beyoncé says, "You just might be a black Bill Gates in the making".
So, ladies and gentlemen. Do you choose to be another shadow in the corner? Or do you choose to be the one that isn't afraid of new chances. Are you the bold type?
The Bold Type airs on Tuesday's 9pm on Freeform, Wednesday's on Hulu.
