The sad news about the death of the "King of Pop" has been circulating over the Internet for the past 20 hours. We have lost a music legend who reached a global audience and who's music and style inspired a number of generations.

We have also lost a fashion icon. One of my first sewing projects happened while I was in grade school. I was a huge fan of Michael's and decided to create my own matching white sequin glove to match his. It's days like this I wish I still owned it, but I will always remember the impact he had both on my love for music and my love of fashion.

Rest in peace Michael, may God bless your soul. May your legacy live on through the artists and musicians who you have inspired.
