ootd: it's in the trees

Honestly, I don't know why, but I have a major thing for tree/branch prints. Whenever I see a silhouette of trees or branches on a clothing item or actually, anything, I just have to have it in my life. I even got a forest tattoo this year.

The blouse and jeans are from wholesalebuying.com

a misty dawn today, somewhere

So, here is the very gray early spring, with gray bare trees and I'm wearing gray. And silver. I don't know if the V-shaped necklace was an unconscious Freudian choice, because I just saw both volumes of Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac and I absolutely loved the film. I always enjoy his dark themes and how he integrates music theory, literature, religion and even fishing to his films... I am not utterly fond of all the hints and references he makes, but in general I can say that he is one of those filmmakers whose work talks to me and he definitely is one of the most talented directors of our time, like him or not.

Anxiety of the spectacle

I haven't posted here for a while so here's an update to drink with some spicy tea and wintersun...

I've been concentrating on other things instead of taking pictures of what I wear... and to be honest, I am more than content with that. Most of my time goes on learning, reading, watching films and conversing with inspirational people. Regarding to my appearance, I still care very much about how I look, but now it is quality rather than quantity. I try to find unique and timeless items made of quality fabrics instead of cheap fashion. And it might sound strange, but I try to find those things from thrift stores. Coming across things like genuine leather boots, 100% wool sweaters and silk blouses in thrift stores... and getting them just for a few euros... Doesn't happen every time, but still, it's like a miracle when it does.

On other news, I have launched a new blog, which is only focused on my own personal photography, take a look at it HERE. This will be a decent portion of the imagery I see and digest on a daily basis.

I am more than happy to leave the year 2013 and start anew. I have a few goals this year that I definitely want to achieve and I'm full of motivation.

And about today... A wonderful winter day with some sun. I haven't even seen actual daylight for a while and now all the shine and glisten... crazy.
