Finding fashion inspiration

Everyone has it hard trying to pick the most perfect outfit. Usually, we can be stuck looking for new ideas to complement our fashion sense. But luckily, fashion is seen as a bigger picture than what you think.

First off, define the word fashion (And no, it doesn't mean looking it up into the dictionary). Basically, describe it how you would look into it. For me, I believe fashion is express as art that colors our personality. Once you've got that done, the magic will start to begin. 

Next, source out this miracle such as social media, magazines, scenery, models, paintings, buildings, advertisement, makeup, furniture, antiques, or ANYTHING! You can find tons of valuable info by just 
seeking out the right items. The more sources you have, the greater your mind will thank you for new ideas. 

Okay, here's the crucial part, reaching for that gut feeling. It can be hard just by looking into one object. But take your time thinking about it. Use your imagination. Create a piece of clothing out of your mind that has the same feel. For example, watching the Eiffel Tower from Paris. How about a Parisian theme sweater with gorgeous roses to reflect the city of romance? That idea can make you start thinking about other clothing pieces to choose from. It's not hard unless you try and take your time. Even better if you can just draw out the clothes you're thinking about onto paper. 

Last thing to help you guys on your journey for creative thinking is to take a break. You may not instantly reach out what you wanted, but it doesn't mean it's hopeless. You need a breather, relax the mind. Stress makes it harder for you to concentrate. Daydream helps both encourage inspiration and easy relaxation. So, drift off into space and who knows where you'll end up because fate can be brought to you when you least expected. 

Easy-peasy things to grab a bit of thinking. These are the things I do to keep myself motivated. Now, I'm sharing it with you guys so that you can think like a fashionista without trying.



See ya next time! Ciao ^__^

Body shaming is a no no

Hi you guys! So I really wanna talk about this topic because lately our society has been spot on the perfect beach body, big butt, thigh gaps, super skinny arms/legs, and being thick. And hearing about people's mean opinions on other women's figure is considered body shaming. 

Everyone's body is different. We have shapes that don't match someone's needs and that's fine. Their judgment don't matter at all to you. What's important is that you're beautiful and you stay beautiful. Simple, right? Well not for everyone. There are some who can be sensitive to opinions and some who aren't. Basically, words cut deeper than a sharp blade. Speaking about a girl's body in a bad way will only look bad for you. It shows that you wanna take credit for something you have than what the other person doesn't. Plus, your victim wouldn't feel as comfortable as she would've. I know it's the nature of people, but we need to focus on giving more positive energy aside from taking it away. 

Going through puberty, I wasn't really into looking good for my own body. I was mainly focused on keeping negativity away and being confident. But it changed by the time I enter high school where all the ladies dress with cleavage and showing some skin. There was this time when I went bra shopping and so, I ask a bra specialist from Victoria Secret to measure me. She said that I was a 32D and I went to try it on. The cups were fitted except the band size so I officially bought a 34D bra. Before, I never had measure my bra size until now because eyeing wasn't good since I wore a 36B cup for two years and it was super uncomfortable. But this new bra I had was easier to wear and didn't snug. The next day, I told my so-called friends about getting a new bra and they were not too happy about the sizing. They believe that my chest wasn't even big from appearance (since they never seen me wearing a tight fitted shirts and only bagging sweaters). The two kept laughing at me and said that maybe a B cup was a perfect match for me. I remember they were making a big commotion around the students and comparing their boob size from mine because it didn't look like theirs. I was so ashamed about my body from that point on. Not only did I lose my self-confidence, but I had to forget about them because they weren't the friends that make me happy. I tried looking up about bra sizing and most responses have said that it doesn't matter how big your bust is to fit the size as long as you're wearing the comfortable proper measurements. I believe it as well because numbers can't define who you are. I wish I could tell those girls about it, but they don't have time to give me respect. And all I can do is accept myself for the way I was born. 

No matter if you have or don't have that figure that everyone expects, as long as you feel good because nobody knows you the best. And we should do this world a favor by spreading positive energy to young girls because hey, a frowning face isn't pretty. 

See ya next time! Ciao ^__^

Love/Hate Tag

I was nominated by the lovely, Ditsy Sprinkles to do the Love/Hate challenge tag. Do check out her blog because she's really sweet and has great reviews on useful products. Okay enough talking, let's begin! 

Basically, this tag features 20 things about you with 10 things you love and 10 things you hate. I think this will be nice to do because you guys can learn more about me. 

10 things I hate

-Coconut: For some reason, I get this after taste which isn't pleasant at all. Some people think I'm crazy, but I know myself best. 
-Arguments: I get really annoyed when people can't be patience. It makes things worst for me. 
-Being short: I'm 4'11 and can I say it's pretty short. I'm so jealous with all these tall ladies that I wish I was them because they look more mature for their age. 
-Vaccinations: Or anything that deals with medical procedures with needles. I'm terrified ever since birth. I really wanna let go of the fear, but it's too much. I do try my best to be brave, but it fails at times. 
-Cliff hangers: Man, don't you hate those cliff hangers in movies and books. They make me think about what's going to happen and pester about it for days.
-Surprises: These really freak me out when someone sneaks attack me or pop up as a surprise. Gets my heart pumping and hands shaking. 
-Cheaters: They don't understand the real meaning of working hard to get what you desire. 
-Dark: Kinda feels like I'm warped into a deep abyss. 
-Valentine's: Experience a hurtful moment which is why I hated Valentine since then. 
-Dogs: Been afraid because they would bark and jump making me feel alert and cautious. 

10 things I love

-Diys: Seriously they are my #1 life savers. Love how I can create something either through sewing, baking, crafting, or designing and easily discover my own passions. I adore those simple diy tutorials because they are strangely easy, yet saves you time and money. Plus, it's good to learn a skill because you never know when it's needed in life. 
-Youtube: Gotta love my YouTube vids. Without them, I would've never learn how to do my hair, bake, craft, or doing makeup. Thank you for bringing this in my life!
-Vintage: Really into the retro and chic looks you find from clothing to antique furniture. My love for vintage started from Tumblr. 
-Cats: I remember I was so scared of animals. But ever since my sis brings her cat, I can't help but to treat him with love and care. He's too adorable to let go. 
-Manga/Anime: I find the most interesting stories through manga/anime. Don't know why, but I guess some of these relate to my problems. I highly adore slice of life because it's teaches you positivity. 
-Fashionistas: So, instagram has taught me many pointers through fashion. Loving how the girls style and creating their own is really refreshing and eye-catching. Someday, I wanna be like them. 
-Comedy: How can you smile without a touch of laughter? My favorite thing to do when I'm down and need a boost of encouragement. 
-Relaxation: Favorite past time. Usually when I get home from school and jump right into my bed with my phone in hand and you guys there. 
-Tattoos: Don't believe me? I'm interested ever since an amazing tattoo artist represents tattoos as art and not just a rebellious symbol. One day, I'll try to get one with something I'm really proud of. 
-My followers/Visitors: Now, I sincerely love each and every one of you guys. Commenting and visiting my blog everyday really soothes my heart. Blogging has been a place in my heart where I can escape reality and share my moments with you secretly. If you guys never came to visit, I'd probably stop blogging. But i gotta remember why I started so, even if one person came then it's enough to be free in ecstasy. Love you all! (:

Shoutout to Ditsy Sprinkles once again for this tag. And I enjoy writing my 20 things and hope you guys learn some interesting facts about me. 

Ooh and let's not forget about nominations. By picking 5 outstanding bloggers to do this challenge, I nominate: 

-Nicole from Nicole's Notebook
-Michelle from Princess from Jupiter
-The lovely Chic Cupcake
-Miharu from Miharu Julie
-Miss Romantiquley 

Can't wait to see what your 20 things are!

See ya next time! Ciao ^__^
