a hazy shade of winter

Saturday, July 11, 2015

If you asked me what I've done over the last couple of weeks I couldn't say for sure although I have a vague idea. Each day kind of blurs into the last and there's a pile of pretty outfits sitting in my room that I simply haven't had time to wear. All I know is slowly I'm running out of time to do everything that I set out to do, but rather than study furiously I am creating aesthetically pleasing moodboards. I can sympathize with my parents when they feel jaded in their jobs, without the structure of exams and school holidays to regiment periods of stress and relaxation. Making sense or trying to compile everything about an aesthetic into a few images, or writing one powerful paragraph describing a graduate collection has been my escape lately. I've also started to sell some of the pieces in my wardrobe which just don't get enough love which has been surprisingly refreshing. Sooner or later I'll need to take a week off, or at least a few days and maybe escape to the holiday house and immerse myself in journaling (which I've all but neglected since February).
