Cleaning out the closet

Imagine all wardrobes being thrown in a hole, just to be dug out in 100 years. What will the content say about us? What do our clothes reflect? That we lived in a standard society of mass production, chain stores, with little appreciation for quality, that the dress code was uniform-like, cheap, quantity over quality and that our way of life is simillar to that of our clothes: standard, average, empty. Not me! It's time to throw out all of the unworthy shit. My goal is to have items I that I will never want to get rid of, shoes that I'll keep for the rest of my life and dresses that my grandchildren would still want to wear.

On my way to work




On my way to one of my last days of work, the lovely Felicia from Damstyle took my picture.

my life is happy again

One month no blog update. Latest developments: I finally resigned my job at American Apparel, I am so relieved that there is finally a view on something new in my life. And because of that it makes me enjoy the few days(only 6!!) i've got left there more, work harder, and realize that it wasn't that bad at all, I had a great time at that company, going to wear their bodysuits for the rest of my life and met alot of interesting people. That said, the 9.5-hour boring workdays are over and I am so excited to have ome spare energy left to do something new and with substance. My brain needs training! Even my vocabulairy has shrunken from putting the full amount of my time in something that doesnt involve much thinking or creativity. I am so ready to spent a day in the library, buy a A3 format sketchbook, take some pictures, visit foreign cities, do an internship, go thrifting...What also musn't be underestimated as an influence on ones moods is new footwear. My new Givenchy babies were delivered 2 weeks ago!
