Alright, so I'm back from a very long hiatus. I've used all the excuses I can make, putting my day job in front as my number one priority. I have been absent from blogging for too long, and I did have plenty of downtime to continue posting. I decided, after seeing others follow their passion, to get back on the horse. I've started vlogging again as well (click here) because I'm at that stage of my life where I can focus on both my day job and passions in film and fashion. Technically, my job (as a fashion/tech journalist) coincides with my passions, so it's not far off. Ultimately, there really isn't a good excuse.
In other words, I'm back to doing what I love and I hope everyone will support me along the way. I know you guys will because some of you kept asking me to blog again. Well, I'm back. This time, for good.
The title suggests something along the lines of freedom and openness. This is an outfit for a quick getaway. In the spirit of summer, it's light and sexy. The initial look was somewhat inspired by the Pia Mia video to her song "Let's Do It Again". The song had been on repeat for an hour or so on my iTunes. Ridiculous. I pictured this look on a young lady making her way down a floral-lined pathway to a secluded beach. Not getting in the water of course. Perhaps for a brunch and a gossip session with her girlfriends?
