Minimalist

Minimalist

Recently, I’ve been writing down my thoughts, experiences and things that inspire me in my day-to-day life. Doing so really helped me narrow down my own path; what I need, recognising the changes and the growth of our own opinions. This has also helped me to live in a more minimalist way. When people say they are minimalists, that doesn’t mean giving up on important things, but letting go of things that you don’t need and using that minimalist thinking to your own advantage. Minimalists search for happiness not through things but through life itself. Thus, its up to you to determine what is necessary and what is superfluous in your life. The whole idea is that you have the only things that you need. Sometimes certain situations in our life, thoughts in our head, or clothes / shoes in our closet or just things in our room tend to take that extra space. But the question we have to ask is do we really need it?








I have used a minimalist theme in my outfit today, just because I thought this is all I need for a casual day. Turtlenecks are quickly becoming one of my favourites to warm myself up without needing a scarf, and also just to wear as a casual top. I love wearing it with any skinny jeans really, but today I chose to wear it with light blue skinnies just to add some brightness on the look. I finished the look with my cutout shoes, which is no surprise because I literally can’t stop wearing them! I hope you like the look.

Looking Back


Looking Back
Not all of us get happy thinking about what we went through in the past or in life, but it is so important to look back and see not so amusing situations that once we were in, that road we have walked, with smiles or in tears, plagued by obstacles or with rewards. Our understanding of our own life is to be able to see and read the chapters of our own experiences and circumstances, recognising that we are the end result of these experiences. Whether it's good or bad, every situation gives us a new lesson or makes us see our own ability either to stop ourselves in time, to be happy and content with what we have at that moment, or push boundaries to achieve what we want to or what could be better for us. There are no right or wrong decisions, but a situation we can either make an opportunity or lesson out of.  Through these understandings, we will be able to go back to visualize our own experiences and decisions, seeing how far we have come, how much we have grown as an individual and creating who we have eventually come to be. It’s always worth reading these chapters that created our own book - honestly it would be a fascinating read.







I had so many beautiful experiences, great lessons and accomplishments in 2014 but today I am looking back at my personal styles. So here are some of my favourite outfits from 2014. You will be able to see how I have evolved and see the transformation of my personal styles. I hope you like the looks as much as I had fun doing them. 
Which one is your favourite?

Details

 Details 

The past few weeks have been pretty hazy trying to sort out some personal issues, hence the reason for my absence. I guess at some point, everyone needs some time alone to figure out what it is that we are looking for and what we’re working towards. I guess what I am trying to say is that, no one is given a certain path in life and we have to find that ourselves. Even though we might feel lost sometimes, we can always take time alone to really ask ourselves and understand what it is that you want to do, and then walk towards it.  








Cutout heels, New look


Now going to my outfit, I managed to find this amazing jumpsuit in sheinside. As you can tell by now, my obsession for cutouts and any details in general, well this one piece features both of them. This literally has everything - from cutouts, mesh details at the front and that gorgeous gold chain around the neck, so who is going to be bothered to wear accessories after that? This just oozes with elegance and became my definite choice for the New Year (by the way, I am pretty late but this post was from new year!). I also did my hair up to keep the details on show and kept the accessories quite minimal too. I finished the look with my cutout heels. I hope you like it!
