self portrait

Day 1: does this count as a self portrait? I suppose it could pass as something artsy and alternative. I've been getting more excited by the day for my upcoming trip to California, so I thought this was rather fitting. I took this, or rather my sister took this, in Sweden while we were there. Missing it. Indeed, the prospect of proper sunshine is what's keeping me going at the moment...!

thirty day photos

So I came across this 30 day photo challenge and I thought, why not? It is too easy to fall into a regular routine here, and this will be a nice source of inspiration and distraction from work everyday. Admittedly, it is for August....but here we go anyway!

A change in season always comes with a change in wardrobe, and I'm looking to do exactly that. I love Spring because it allows a gradual shift from winter to summer pieces. Especially here in the UK where it's not warm enough for summer pieces, but too warm for winter jackets. I'm a big fan of the maxi skirt. which has become a staple item in my wardrobe during this transitional season. They look effortlessly stylish and allow so much versatility that you can't go wrong. Not to mention, they're surprisingly flattering. Come summer, I plan to have integrated patterned corset-like tops into my combinations. They're another trend I've been dying to try but, prior to this, haven't been able to figure out how to wear them without looking, inappropriate.
