Your Typical Sweetheart | OOTD

Yap, it's me again.
As I was thinking of an outfit to wear it suddenly struck me that it's warm today and can wear some light heels and a skirt. What a great day! I decided to go for a cute and vintage look. It's rather classy yet feminine and definitely makes me look like I'm the smartest girl in my class. I love love love past decades and vintage fashion especially because it looks good on me. This look is very simple, you can make more modern by changing heels and doing something different with your hair. As simple as that.

wearing: coat - Stradivarius; cardigan - Benetton; bodysuit - Wolford; skirt - Zirve; heels - Indiana

Be kind to those around you, be you, stay true

Ultimate fashion and style combination | OOTD

Wanna look cool infinity up high? This post is for you.
For some reason combining all the trendy pieces in one outfit seems to be working pretty well. We got here leopard print, graphic tee, somewhat distressed jeans and also my white rusty converse but you totally wear mules or just a pair of white heels (that are really in atm).
I don't have much to say but meanwhile, I was thinking of creating a youtube channel 'cause why not and idk if there's any common people who've seen more than two posts but if you're reading this comment what would you want to see on my channel? Like should it be lookbooks and makeup or I can also chit-chat w/ you about my life and share the struggle of living in this world (besides I have a lot of stories to tell). 

wearing: coat - Karton; shirt - Zolla; crop top - Pull&Bear; belt - Concept Club; jeans - Armani jeans; sneakers - Converse

Pls comment what you would want to see from me

Stay cool, stay true 

Love ya all

Persona #4 Zuko the prince of the new era

Hey, babes. Before I start my usual ramble let's get some thing out of the way.

First of, I can't resist just talking about real people so there you go, another gorgeous fictional character to admire.

Second, if for some obscure reason you still haven't watched Avatar: The Last Airbender (not Kora or God Help Us that movie) then immediately disembark this page and go watch it, like binge watch it and after you absorb all the beauty, deepness and every little thing about this show, then do come back and enjoy some decent (maybe not so decent) appreciation post for the biggest rebelish cinnamon roll in this universe aka Mr. Zuzu.

Now, when you've been warned, let me invite you to join on our emotional rollercoaster ride.

It would be wrong to say that Zuko was the only one who changed throughout  the series because one of the best things about Avatar is definitely character development. Every character got his/her dose of life-changing events. Although, to me, Zuko is one of those who developed the most and for the best. Let's begin our little retrospective journey.

When we first meet the Prince in exile he comes across as I short-tempered, self-centred blind rebellious teenager. Honestly, I immediately didn't like him for being such an asshole but we should appreciate his blind determination to get what he must get. If not for Zuko's lovely uncle Iroh who balanced everything out,  Zuko could've exploded right there during his first "battle" with team Avatar. Our little Prince went a long road to become such a graceful King. We saw him next to his crazy sister and father which made us think that maybe he ain't that bad compered to his family. His storyline seemed to be always on the complete polar opposites. It had to be extreme, it's either he's being a total fuckboy and ruining everything in front of him or he's having strong spiritual awakenings and trying to get shit together and correct his past mistakes. 

Even tho Iroh helped him all the way, Zuko still found his path in life when he was alone which makes me love him even more. 

Some of my fav moments of his storyline differently are: 

1. Him being the mystery mask boy and saving everyone

2. Trying to master lighting and failing at it and then discovering a better ability (such a cinnamon roll)

3. Being friends with Toph

3.2 Talking to frog about life (again cinnamon roll)

4. Going on field trips with team Avatar (including Him and Aang being stuck in resin and then dancing the dragon dance; Mai x Zuko  moment during prison escape)

5. Reuniting with his uncle Iroh

6. Final battle against his sis ft. Katara (this episode I totally shipped it)

Ah, Zuko is such a cinnamon roll, my heart always starts beating so fast whenever I remember that time when he finally joined Team Avatar and they spent time together and went to his child home and  watched that obscure theatrical performance.

I would've totally shipped Katara and Zuko but like my fav none canon ship is Katara and Jet (I know, I know he's such a fuckboy but still, I can't). What's your fav ship and fav moment w/ Zuko?

Zuko changed from a lost angry baby to a graceful wise adult. If he managed to go through so much shit and grow up a decent person in such a family then we can totally do it too. He's such an inspiration to me. Plus he's a true cinnamon roll, we've seen him being vulnerable and lost so many times it feels like he spent the whole series struggling with his own identity (which is true and is good).

The moral of today is as always  -  be true, be you and search for better things

Also, be kind

Fashion and Style Inspiration: Jeanne Damas

Model, street style star aka Jeanne Damas the "french It girl" is a perfect candidate for my inspirational Monday ramble. If you haven't yet got on the "being a Parisian girl" trend then you're really missing out. It may seem that a true french girl's style is so easy and thoughtless, like she just threw it on and barely touched her hair and face. In reality tho, a lot of thought and experience goes into looking carelessly chic. You need to know your body as well as what fits you better than anything else. A staple go-to look should definitely become your bff. The most difficult thing, at least for me, is achieving this messy hair no makeup look. Anyways, what I'm leading to is that Jeanne Damas is one of these perfect women who mastered the art of being truly a proud french girl.
Now, if you didn't understand a thing from my rambling let me just point out some of my everyday style inspos that I get from her: 

1. "I just threw it on" pro

How does she achieve looking stylish in such simple outfits? Magic? Idk but there's definitely something to learn from this. If she can look cool in a basic tee and high-waisted pants then we can too. Girl, you don't need some expensive designer clothes to look bomb, just rock what you've got and be you!

2. Dress is the best

Speaking about simplicity in outfits. Look at her, she looks equally  hot in silky night gowns and in cotton skater-dresses. She even has her own brand of carefully curated clothes and it's just a dream. Check it out, it's called Rouje.

3. Easy class & sass

Remember I was talking about staple go-to looks earlier? Most often it's a comfy pair of jeans and a simple tee but by adding a fitted jacket or a coat you can make it into classy trendy outfits. Just a look at this gorgeous girl.

4. The no makeup and statement lips

Yes, a true french girl barely wears any makeup and has her fair share of statement red lipsticks and of course Jeanne Damas isn't an exception but there's one thing different about her. And it's her hair. Usually it'd be a messy hair look but Jeanne's hair is always looking silky and shiny. Ah, what a beautiful mystery.

5. Know your basics 

Finally, finishing my little style-talk is the one and only staple look. That girl knows what looks good on her and shamelessly uses it everyday. 

That's what it takes to be the french It girl.

Stay stylish, stay you
