Hello beautiful, Long time, no talking… It seems like it’s been like that for a while now. Truth is, I had to have a break. From life really. As much as all my family and friends told me to take care of myself, it didn’t really hit me until my health slowed me down and even stopped me for a bit. So it got me reflecting. I am a hustler and I know I always talk about that and going that extra mile, but it seems like I left something out of this mix – myself. I left myself behind and focused on work, uni, projects, anything else but myself. And I thought it’d be fineeee, until it put me to bed, literally. For a few days I didn’t have the energy to do anything, I barely worked, crawled to lectures and antibiotics were, well, still are, a big part of my day.

These are the kind of things that inspire me and bring a smile on my face, but lately I have been so caught into all this work I am doing, either for university, either volunteering that I didn’t have time to enjoy a relaxed walk that would allow me to notice all these things. And it’s a pity. And I feel like I would just want to leave my laptop or my work and go take that walk, but I wouldn’t, you know why? Because at the end of the day I enjoy every single thing that gets me tired, I chose them all: I chose university, I chose my profile, I chose to be a part of different committees, I chose to get involved and have a voice because I feel that this is what represents me. I chose to create this blog to share with you my passion for fashion and my way of living. All because, in the end, I am who I want to be and all my decisions are based on what I feel...
