NOIR

I have a confession to make, like the majority of my generation I am kind of obsessed with instagram. And I know that others can find my constant hashtagging and picture liking annoying, but there's a certain kind of calmness that comes with scrolling your feed and seeing other people do what they love. And also, it's a great outlet to share the #ootd's and get inspired by other stylish people. But for some reason, I always have felt like I need another platform to share my style posts. Of course, there's Lookbook and Chictopia, but as the years have gone by, their concept starts to feel dated and honestly I still use them just because I feel like I have to. And then something amazing happened, one day not that long ago I was scrolling my twitter feed and came across an app called Feels. I was intrigued by their profile and all the cool streetstyle posts they were sharing, so I headed to play store to download it. And that's when the game changed.

URBAN LEGENDS

I was a blogger
Not a very popular one
I once had dreams of becoming a style icon
But upon an unfortunate series of events saw those dreams dashed and divided like a million stars in the night sky
That I wished on over and over again, sparkling and broken
But I really didn’t mind because I knew that it takes getting everything you ever wanted and then losing it to know what true freedom is

The September Issue

So Autumn’s here and September’s almost passed. I’m sure we’ve all read one or more September Issues of our favorite magazines. Since my heart belongs to the north, this is the most exciting and the most beautiful time of the year. I get to do layering, wear outerwear and the weather is chilly, what more can you possibly wish for?

White walls and black Tees

I’ve been putting my sewing machine to work lately, at least I do when I get the chance. I really like this black tee that I made, hope you’ll like it too. I made the numbers from fake leather, I did have problems sewing them onto the fabric, so I used this special fabric glue. The glue is supposed to last long and you can also wash the garment in the washing machine and basically do whatever you want with it. I kind of wish I had made the tee a bit longer, so I could layer it with other garments since fall is coming (finally!).

Riga Sweethearts

And so it’s October, I guess I could say it’s my favorite time of the year. This time autumn has brought me lots of changes. And due to these changes I haven’t been able to blog as much as I’d want. For a little while I’m back in Riga and between all of the rainy days there was one that was perfect for the sweetheart photoshoot. It was cold, but we had a great time shooting these pictures with a close friend and photographer Elvijs Strazds.
