I took these photos in January and never published them because I felt there was absolutely nothing special about them. The outfit was just "okay", the shirt was a bit wrinkled, and I could have added a hat or some burgundy lipstick. I could have gone to a cooler place.
I honestly miss the days when the bloggers wore normal clothes, when it wasn't about who was doing which campaign or who was getting the most likes, when it wasn't about having 100 props and it was jus aboutt shooting in front on your house with a simple camera, and when it was about shooting about what you actually wore instead of freezing in the snow for a cute shot.
I felt more inspired back them. There is something about today's perfection that doesn't resonate with me. I look at these girls with their perfect makeup, with the latest trend (that most of the times, it is absolutely ridiculous), with the crazy fabulous trips, and I don't even aspire to be like them.
Maybe I didn't evolve with the time.
Maybe I'm just being nostalgic of a simpler time.
Maybe I'll just keep being me and someone out there will identify with my imperfection.

I get what you are saying. There's so much pressure these days, which is totally crazy! I love your photos and the background matches so well!

For me simplicity is the best word that describe the way I dress. I don't get distracted with all that stuff, probably because of my age, but even when I was younger that did not got into me. Don't get me wrong I love fashion but sometimes is just plain ridiculous all the things bloggers do and so expensive. We are stewardships of the money we earn and spend. And usually a simple outfit gets my attention more than the extravaganza on others bloggers site.
