Back to School: A turtleneck outfit

        It's amazing how fashion has managed to get away with challenging its rules once again. What was once believed to be worn just for winter, turtlenecks have now been made possible to wear in the warmer months with sleeveless and short-sleeved versions of the aforementioned winter turtlenecks. Turtlenecks are brilliant as they can amp up any outfit while lending a bit of warmth as it covers up the neck, just perfect for the chilly classrooms in school. 

       I wanted to keep the outfit quite neutral so I paired my turtleneck with simple black pieces. To break it up a bit, I added a few gold and brown accents and there you have it: my back to school ensemble.

       What do you think of my outfit?

Darkened Stars

Hello Dahlings!:)

        It has been a saying and a belief that certain stars have special magical properties. To some, when a star darts through hurriedly, it's the perfect time to make a wish and watch them come true. To others, a star that radiates the brightest is one that will guide you to the way you need to go, whether it'd be out of the lost or towards a new change.

       My breezy and easily dressed romper of what reminds me of darkened stars has seen me through many new changes; the reveal of my new teeth as I sat on the dentist chair and had my braces removed, the new haircut I donned as I watched my hairdresser chop off 6 inches of heavy tresses off and the enlargement of photos on this blog post and on many more that will come on my blog after realizing how tiny the photos on past blog posts actually were. 

       And just like the stars that gleam in the night, my darkened stars have radiated a light, albeit a different way, and collected precious memories through the new changes I believed it guided me to.
