Quick post!

For those who have had an ugly past. Swearing totally appropriate in this case :)


Am I a Stereotype?



Isn't she beautiful? One of my favourite Indian Models. I have been organising a trip to India, I can't wait to spend time with family and friends.






Say

"Unemployed Teen wasting away during an economic turmoil"

"Aliens migrating to the country, a land of golden opportunity"

"red black and brown"

"fashionista"

"vain hipster lurking around the streets of Sydney"

"female, career driven, apathetic to her culture. potential graduate"


Pick what you shall we all strive to be politically correct. I work my brain off and my verbal intelligence every Tuesday during my Ethics class. To tell you the truth I have no idea how I can truly justify my actions. I am surrounded by contradictions and I guess I am a hypocrite.

Not every question has an answer and that is ETHICS in a nutshell. It's frustrating not knowing if you are right or wrong. I'd like to think I am conscious of what's around me, the issues we face everyday but there is little importance if you are detached from reality.

I feel my blog and reading other blogs is an attempt for escapism. Its a reality we would all like to percieve as an oppourtunity to get to know others, share opinion and even secretly hope to get famous. Haha Come on!

All I'm saying is people take charge of what is happening now. Be true to yourself, you will form the answers may it be right or wrong, You my dear friends will have one skill the rest won't possess and that is the answer you believe in.

Truth.



Making up for Lost Times






Gentle Storm.

It feel's good to get into the swing of things. I'm back at Uni, out of work... Plenty of assignments which means lack of social interaction which means I have some sort of restraining order until my break.

Last weekend we celebrated beautiful, Mel's birthday. We traveled to a Spanish Cabaret restaurant. It was an exhilarating experience. I absolutely love dancing, its in my blood and the food was drool worthy!

We even had the opportunity to have a salsa lesson. Mel and Brother dearest won 1st place.

I feel like I am experiencing abrupt and constant change in my life and that has definitely molded my views and beliefs. I am comfortable in my own skin and never have I been this comfortable experimenting. We bloggers should know this. It is like an unspoken , mutual connection. We stand out. We do. People either blatantly gawk their eyes out at you or sheepishly comment your interpretation.

Amongst our community we will always have the haters that love their stereotype. And you will see this. They have their posses and they all look alike even if they are fashion forward. Whatever, I absolutely despise arrogance.

Do you guys expeience attitudes from people for no apparent just because you dress a certain way?

Egon Schiele
















(Vogue Italia, 1996. Photographed by Paolo Roversi)

Egon Schiele has always been an amazing source of inspiration for me. His paintings represent a very personal and revolutionary vision of the world, especially for the time they were created. Yest I still find his work incredibly modern. I particularly love the atmosphere he created in his portraits: glorious and distorted, a sublime and twisted celebration of sensuality.

Gertrude Schiele



A spirit of sober luxury guides this season's new collection, in which Vienna of the 1900s meets with Klimt and Schiele in a universe of extreme refinement.

When one delves into the lifes and work of Schiele, it is impossible not to find inspiration. His unique and exquisite artistry allows him to depict both overt sexuality and the un-selfconscious innocence of childhood.

Word of advice.

Do not tamper with HTML if you cannot sleep.

I froze, shocked and angered. Of all things I could possibly comprehend, a silent four letter word resounded after which I replaced it with... HELP!

Unfortunately, its 4 am and no one as foolish as me would stay up this late.


What do you guys think?

*sniffs* I guess change is good? If not is anyone good at this?

On a side note.

Deservable mention to Willow and Daria at Pigtails & Blushing Cheeks without their support this blog would definitely be on the flip side. Thank you so so much!

and all the readers who visit, who comment, who read. Thank you. I will try me hearty best to update regularly!

Have a great weekend ya'll

I need structure

Jumping between jobs and let downs these past few weeks, it is safe to say "I'm on the right track". Currently working in the fashion industry and boy oh boy is it interesting!
Interesting as I described it as is somewhat a polite understatement. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy every second of it. The buzz of potential buyers, fabrics and accessories that will be used in the coming year. It's all part of this exciting process.

I absolutely love being inspired, extending my creativity and having fun. Unfortunately, it is not all fun and frolic. You need to fit a distinctive criteria which can be stereotyped, cynical and unoriginal in the sense - you should look like those around you.

Where is the individuality? The open arms waiting for some crazy interpretation. I just wished women took a stand and stopped subscribing to wasting themselves in this cut throat melodrama.
