A style diary.

This is one of my most favorite editorials. The photos are from Mas Palomas for Fantastic Man magazine by Berlin-based photographer Benjamin Huseby and styled by Jodie Barnes.

Neutral colors that camouflage nudists in the beach of Canary Islands, Spain.

I believe that editorials should tell a story. Or in this case, a reminder to myself .

Sometimes, I don’t need to imbibe what is normal in order to be associated. All I need to do is to re-invent, re-think or re-style. If all else fails, just appreciate differences, be innate, and move on.

One of the many ways that I get fulfillment from maintaining a street fashion site is when a fashion website, such as fashionising, selects a photo and include it in their street style section together with other photos from JakandJil, Vanessa Jackman, Sartorialist, etc. When I see incoming links and page views from fashionising, it gives me relief and satisfaction. It also reminds me to continue enjoying what I am doing.

For the past months, I thought of giving up street fashion blogging. After running it for more than two years, I think it is time to give up or take a break from it as I have other priorities in life and I have other things that I do. I do my laundry, I iron my clothes, I work, and I live alone.

But the more I learn about street photography, the more that I am loving the adventure of going out on weekend; taking random photos from shoes to bags, and approaching people whose fashion and style catch my eye. And when people appreciate the photos I took of them, it gives me encouragement and maybe a pat on my back.

Oh, before this post becomes a novel, I better run now. It is laundry time, midnight laundry time!

My current favorite words are minimal, classic and elegance. Or maybe since then. I ponder.
