Musically Inspired – A Different Sort of Life

Why does everyone's life have to look the same? Why are we all expected to get stable careers and buy houses? Why do we have to get married and have kids? Why do have to fall into the same routine as everyone around us, and every generation before…

Outfit – You Can Fly

It's pretty obvious which character I chose this week, right? Of course, this is a look inspired by Tinkerbell, the mischievous little fairy from Peter Pan. Honestly, I wasn't always a big fan of Tink, with the way she acts so bratty at times, but this dress was…

Another Year Older | 24

Outfit – Poor Unfortunate Souls

Turning to a more villainous character for my inspiration this week, with this look being based on Ursula, from 'The Little Mermaid' - check out Ariel here. The villains may actually prove to be easier to style for me, since I typically wear darker colours more similar to…

Grey | Colour

It's solemn and bleak and austere. It's quiet and moody and sad. It's formal and conservative and neutral. (source) It's pillars of smoke, streaming their way up into the atmosphere, and a layer of smog descending over the city. It's a field of gravestones, in irregular rows, somber…
