Sooo, I just moved to Madrid. Im 21, recently graduated, pursuing a Master’s in Fashion Styling, just attended my first fashion week etc, etc.
Out of all the things I could write about and post on this page, the inspiration for this first post hit me when I least expected it. On my walk home today, lost in thought thanks to my current music hyper fixation, I noticed a literal pep in my step.I’ve never used that phrase before, but today it felt entirely true.
When I packed up my life for Europe a month ago, I left these boots back home. My mom shipped them to me last week, and putting them back on made me realize how much of myself was missing without them.I will never not be fascinated by the power of clothing and them as a medium for identity and self expression. For some, clothing is just protection from the elements. For me, its a piece of my soul.
I’ve had these boots for almost three years now,, a random depot find. The price made me hesitate at first so I started asking random people in my life for their thoughts. I got mixed reviews:
"I would never wear them, but I can see them on you""They're so you"And my personal favorite (the one that actually made me doubt buying them for a second): “They remind me of Peter Pan”
“thank you for taking the time to read<3,, xoxo.”
