i love wearing clothes with fun colours and comfy textures, i feel like it just makes you so much happier walking past mirrors! i got this handmade chunky rainbow sweater with this lovely criss-cross decorative stitching on the outside that makes it look fun and patchworked, and something about the colours just makes me so happy! same with dungarees, i can't believe i only recently picked up a pair because they really do make you feel like the plucky main characters from the books we read at age eleven ( ˶ˆᗜˆ˵ )~✩‧₊

I have thought about this at length, I fear.
I want to look and feel at ease in my clothes and I shop for clothing very intentionally. For me the rules of outfits are:
- No single-designer looks
- Steam/press rarely
- No logos (sneakers are the exception)
- Always wear at least 1 garment with visible wear or damage
- Get dressed intentionally every day
- It does not matter how conventionally flattering the look is. I care only about how it makes me feel in my body
- Never clean Ur (my) shoes except to keep leather in condition
I shop almost exclusively second hand and in person—I only buy if I would be heartbroken to come back for a garment to find it had passed me by forever. Most pieces I see are effectively one-offs because I treat them this way.
I am attracted to Japanese workwear silhouettes, modular garments, and drama. “My” colour is the shade precisely between yellow and orange. All my jewelry is gifted. I aim to keep garments until the end of their lives.

I dress with fun clothes, might not look the best on me but I think the pattern/ fabrics or in general the ideas bring me so much joy. i also started taking breaks in the middle of my walks to look at things I think are pretty and I allow myself to feel interest for whatever it is!

I love being an outfit repeater. I love when my clothes start to feel roomy & slouchy. I love when I notice the fabric color fading. I love when my jeans fray & the denim starts to break open on the knees. I love it when my clothes show that i’ve lived.

i've been doing little things to make my life a little easier, like leaving a bottle of water, iron supplements and some belvita soft bakes right by my bed so i always have breakfast, water and iron in the morning, and keeping a very condensed set of skincare stuff right by my toothbrush - it might not be as effective as having more but getting myself to use a cleanser, moisturising sunscreen and vaseline every day has already made my skin feel so much better which has just gotten me more excited to do my routine every day. plus, getting body sprays and haircare stuff and just products in general that you really like the smell of is a game changer because now i get to smell like pineapples and caramel every day! it's such little things but it makes me happy and keeps me doing a routine of things that are good for me :))

hear me out on this one - i got a bit lost on a walk recently and ended up getting caught in a rosebush, and later that day ended up skinning my knee in a race against some friends because i was going downhill way too fast (i won so all is fair in love and war i guess) and just. something about getting childish minor injuries like scraped knees and bruises and scratches from little misadventures makes me feel so nostalgic? i feel like a five year old girl climbing trees and falling out of them again. i kind of miss it.

i went through my instagram and looked at all the posts and all the slides and wow, my friends all look so happy. i miss being the person who takes a million photos because i captured so many happy moments. that side of me still comes out in certain friend groups but theese days i feel like i have less inclination of reach for my camera. some people say it's living in the moment but for me part of living in the moment is the craving to capture it. people criticise social media for only showing the good parts of life, and i absolutely get that, but it's fun to look at when it's yours and you forget how whimsical and lovely life can be sometimes.
lot of yap to say that i love taking photos and i adore my friends but it's par for the course at this point <3
