Happy Easter!

Chanel and Gold accessories! One of my favorite combos!

A little bit of black on the shoes to balance out the dominating sweetness of the outfit. 

Easter is unarguably one of the most historical day of our times. It marks death and rebirth - gone with the old, and in with the new. When I think of easter, I think of three colors: baby pink, baby yellow, and baby blue. This is my Easter-inspired outfit. I'm especially digging the sweater over a collared shirt trend. It turns a normal, casual sweater outfit into something more preppy and classy. Furthermore, the possibilities of textures, patterns, shapes and colors are endless! I can't wait to try them all until I exhaust the trend.
Hope you are all enjoying your Easter sunday, and I wish you a Happy Easter to those who celebrate!

Corals and Pastel

Easter is nearly here, and you know what that means… pastels are literally popping up everywhere! I've always been a big fan of pastels, although I know many of you are probably not. But pastels do give you this air of regalia and a touch of sophistication.

I'm trying not to over accessorize. Less is more! I have to remember that since I can get a little too carried away sometimes...

Today, I finished the novel "The Reader" today by Bernhard Schlink. I've watched the movie before, but the book just gives it this other dimension. In the book, the protagonist, Michael, symbolizes a post-war generation in Germany that must accept its past to move on and ensure further development. It made me think about futility and philosophy. Were they all the same? As well as the nature of human relationships and the power of the mind. I don't know... I might have to re-read the book again.

Anyways, I was experimenting with ISO settings and grit. There's a whole lot of grit in these photos that add a little bit more of a vintage-ey effect, but this may well perhaps be the last time I use it.
