Inspiration: The universe











Since I can remember I have always been interested in the universe. It's an inspiration to me and it consists of beautiful colours. The thing which makes the universe so interesting is that it's still a mystery. There're so many unanswered questions. I have always been a dreamer and when I was little I looked forward to when it was dark outside so I could look outside my bedroom window and look at the stars. I remember I was really fascinated that I ended up borrowing a book from the library about stars and planets. The best thing was when I saw orion on the nightsky. It was so clear that night. I couldn't believe I had seen it and I was constantly thinking about it. During this time I developed a great interest in science and philosophy. I was fascinated by technology, and that it could make it possible to understand more about the universe. I often discussed philosophical questions with my friends, and it's really exciting to know that we're still finding new things about the universe every day.  

The universe has always been a mystery to everyone, and it's inspiring us every day. In fashion we're seen prints of the universe in clothes like tights, dresses and t-shirts. But the universe has also been a music influence in many years. I'm still wondering what we're going to find about the universe in the future.

Are you inspired by the universe?

Mary Poppins




















Shoes - New Look
Skirt - Cubus
Blazer - H&M
Blouse - Ebay
Hat  H&M
 
I think I have been watching too many Disney Movies lately, and it's been awhile since I have watched the Movie, Mary Poppins. But when I watched the movie this outfit came into my mind and I had to recreate it. My inspiration for this outfit was one of the outfits in the movie where she's wearing a white dress. But also I wanted to create an outfit which reminded me of candies, that's why I used pastel colours. In addition, I wanted to give a vintage effect.

I was supposed to take this outfit outside, but the weather has been really mixed today. It couldn't decide beetween being sunny or rainy. I hope that you like the outfit!

Pull & Bear Spring 2011

 





 

 
 
“I'm not frightened. I'm not frightened of anything. The more I suffer, the more I love. Danger will only increase my love. It will sharpen it, forgive its vice. I will be the only angel you need. You will leave life even more beautiful than you entered it. Heaven will take you back and look at you and say: Only one thing can make a soul complete and that thing is love.”
 
- From the book The Reader
 
 
 I really love this photoshoot.  The location and the lighting in the photos reminds me of summertime. Me and my friends used to wear floral Crowns and summer dresses, and we spent a lot of time by the lake or sea just like the second photo. We could sit for hours and talk or discuss about everything which interested us. I can still remember the lake was so beautiful when the sun was shining on it. Everything turned out to be more like a dream than reality. I'm sorry for the lack of updates, but I am in the middle of an exam period. But the next out is coming very soon, so stay tuned for that.
By the way, thanks for your lovely comments on my previous blog entry.

Summertime

 







 
 
Skirt - Cubus
Blouse - Cubus
Bag - H&M
Hat - H&M
 
The summer has finally arrived, and I just love the different flowers and the smell of them. It makes me remind me when I was little, when me and my friend used to pick pink flowers and put them on the fountain full of water. It smelled wonderful. But a couple of days ago I discovered a beautiful place. It was so peaceful and in the middle of the field it was a gigantic tree with the most wonderful white flowers. I spent time there just writing some poetry. I'm sorry for the lack of updates but I am in he middle of an exam period. My next outfit will be French and romantic inspired, so look forward to that. A read the comments of a previous blog post and I was surprised that many of you were interested in my poetry. I will post one very soon. I have to write the last few sentences, since I always tend to write a couple of them without finishing them.        
 
But I just love this one from "The Book Of Disquiet" by Fernando Pessoa
 
"There is no happiness without knowledge. But knowledge of happiness is unhappy; for knowing ourselves happy is knowing ourselves passing through happiness, and having to, immediatly at once, leave it behind. To know is to kill, in happiness as in everything. Not to know, though, is not to exist."
