I fell in love with this collection, all of it flows so effortlessly, from the fluid materials to the japanese inspired sandals. Simple, elegant, pure, I want it all.

3 sisters

"3 sisters" for Annabelle Magazine, ph. by Amanda Camenisch

I stumbled across this editorial on pinterest and the purity and fresh atmosphere that emanes from it instantly moved me.

INSPIRATION: SERIOUSNESS

"Just look at life with more playful eyes. Don’t be serious. Seriousness becomes like a blindness. Don’t pretend to be a thinker, a philosopher. Just simply be a human being. The whole world is showering its joy on you in so many ways, but you are too serious, you cannot open your heart."
- Osho


My moodboard would also include some music, the whole album Essential Songs by Iron &Wine, so peaceful.

PENSEE N°1

French Vogue n°943 editorial + tumblr print

So today I've sort of had a really good day, which is something I haven't experienced in a while. This last month has been very busy, school work for the most, and it has taken so much of my energy that I feel completely drained. Getting to have a resting day really made me realize how much little things like lying on your bed listening to classic jazz music, drawing, drinking tea and just thinking can be so pleasant. 

I think it's important to visualize things in a positive way so that you appreciate every little moment of actual happiness, and to take time for yourself to rest in order to fuel yourself up. Things can be hard sometimes, but I've come to understand that what's screwed up now is not frozen, time will pass, and you just have to let go... because SHIT COULD BE WORSE!

So don't push too hard over your lmits, but find a path to temperance instead.
