Red cups for new beginnings

  This Saturday was very productive - I'm so proud. A recap and a few thoughts to start:
 
     I walked into the cafe, decked out in my hat, skirt and heels (attempting at stylish-ness), only to receive multiple odd stares and whispered comments directed at yours truly.
    Seriously people? I am wearing clothing! Get over it. Honestly it didn't bother me at all, I just took a seat and waited for my friend to arrive. More often times than not I feel extremely insecure about the clothes that I wear. I'm not sure if I want to do the whole outfit. I would love to piece together everything perfectly down to the accessories and hair. But then when I do go "full out", i've gotten a few things like "You're not at New York fashion week" or "why do you always dress like that". Um...
   
     This is the thing I find horrible about this world we live in, it is constantly contradicting itself. I am supposed to be myself and dress or think as I please but if it does't appeal to your standards then it isn't okay? No, that isn't right. For me, I think New York Fashion Week should be everyday everywhere so I can dress like a super model and not be judged. I know I shouldn't care what other people think but my mind will go there inevitably. I try to remind myself that I don't dress up for other people, I do it for myself. Because I want to look good and feel great in my clothes. I feel like an artist when I put together a great outfit and I love that feeling of looking put together and like I just walked off of pinterest. If you want to wear sweatpants everywhere you go, be my guest. I won't judge you. But don't tell me i'm overdressed for anything.

 It's always exciting to have a new extra-curricular project to work on, especially when your partner is the coolest chick on the planet. In my opinion, I think meetings are the best part of any project. Coffee/hot chocolate in the cutest starbucks on a chilly fall day is what I live for.
     This is so exciting and I can not wait to see how this works out! It's a surprise for now but can't wait for it's launch!

     It's hard to have friends who are so awesome because I always feel the need to out awesome them! Ha ha, the Hipster Games (inside joke between no one but myself).

When you start something new, whether it be a project or art or dancing or sports or whatever, just go into it with confidence and with an open mind. Especially if you have a partner in crime. You guys aren't going to agree on everything. It's also going to be a tad difficult to get your ideas across to each other. Remember you are the only one who can see inside your head! Make sure to have lots of paper, a wifi connection and lots of refreshments!

 
In our case, the red cups are back at Starbucks and you know what that means! Christmas is super soon and I am so excited because it is my favourite season and I'm gonna get a chance to do a bunch of christmas photoshoots and argh.

This post was all over the place and so to coincide with that theme I'm just going to end it here.
See ya,

Andreya

Let's go people watching

Let's go people watching




Okay it's official I'm addicted.

This set is perfect for getting inspiration from the people around you. Whether you're at a little cafe in the city or a bus stop on a chilly morning.

The cozy sweater gives you the innocent and warm but stylish feel. Add a leather jacket and it says "yes I am people watching but if you come up to me and ask about it I will hurt you". You, know, if you like that sort of thing...

     I used to be addicted to Polyvore when I was younger. I guess it got lost somewhere along the lines of being the busiest person in the planet. Now my friend (http://api-ology.blogspot.ca) has started to post the legendary outfits to yearn for but simply can not afford. I love Polyvore because it takes the windows out of window shopping. You don't have to buy pieces to put them together and design them - not to mention it is probably the most easiest and usable editing software known to human kind. 
     So of course now, with my make-shift blog in motion I decided to return to my Polyvore creations! I have to admit it is easily the most fun thing to do on the internet.


    Collars are cool is a 'nerdy' 1960's vintage look that makes you look cute and sophisticated. I love dressing preppy and it is one of my favourite styles (although I am obsessed with every style ever invented). This look was somewhat inspired by how horribly I did on my math test today. You know the "pretending to be smart" look. 
Wow.
     Have a fun rest of your Thursday! Tomorrow is friday whohooo!

I learned it from the movies

Why change? Everyone has his own style. When you have found it, you should stick to it.

This post is dedicated to Sofia Happy birthday!

     I played with artificial colour a lot in this shoot because I felt like I was representing who Sofia is once you get to know her - which is just this burst of colours that you never quite expected always changing every time you think you finally understand her.

falling for...favourite things

Fall is here!!! And with it come all the fall things! These are a few of my favourite fall essentials:


       I find it difficult to leave anywhere without my canon film camera. I love the idea of not being able to see my pictures instantly or delete them. It makes capturing the moment all the more special and authentic. Sometimes the pictures don't turn out very well and I think that is the way that day was meant to be remembered. 

I am forever nuts for Forever Nuts tea from David's Tea. It is honestly the best thing about fall!

Music and a good book are always necessary for me no matter where I am going! Lorde is one of my favourites and I never get tired of her music or voice. The mixtape my dad gave me is for those sunny days in fall when I want some upbeat happy 60's tunes. 

I like to paint my nails all cream and then my ring fingernail a dark colour. I think it looks so chic and cute and I am obsessed. 

Fall is a time for last adventures before it gets too cold and hibernation starts up. Take a moment to take in the colours and the life for the last time until spring. Make a pile of leaves and jump in it!

#OOTD - picnic nicknacks

       infinities - unplugging - sun


     Today, my family took advantage of the beautiful weather and went on a picnic. I felt the need to leave my camera behind. There are days when mere seconds feel as they had the grace to hold infinities and today felt like one of those days. I feel as though there is no way possible to capture these moments in an image and therefore I do not want to keep the moment for any longer than intended. The image would only sadden me as I tried impossibly, to bring back the sensation that had occurred in that moment. In other words, I want those memories to last forever in my heart and not attempt to imagine them in my mind.

       This is one of my favourite dresses that I own. It literally goes with everything. I love buying pieces that have the ability to be mixed in an assortment of different ways. 

Its been yet another scorching day and I am always happy when the sun shines. There were a few fall leaves changing and slipping off the trees and I have been inspired. Inspired to do a fall shoot. I'm extremely excited and can not wait until next weekend.
