I really wanted to start this blog last semester. Unfortunately, I was super busy because obviously it's quite stressful to earn a bachelor's degree within 4 instead of 6 semesters. Also, winter is still around in Germany, so with all the work I had to do and the chilly weather, I didn't really feel like dressing up, but all I wanted to wear was something cozy and comfy. Hence the lack of outfit posts. Now that the finals are over and I've written my bachelor thesis, I started thinking about what topics I wanted to cover with my blog.
I started getting into the whole blogosphere 5 to 6 years ago, when there weren't a lot of blogs to follow. The first ones I started reading regularly were Karlascloset and Fashiontoast which I still follow. I wanted to start blogging ever since then, but as I have to spend hours and hours in the library, at home or in a classroom studying, I just didn't feel like I could ever write a blog about how amazingly practical and comfy my outfit was. Because - you know: Who cares?
My own style developed over the years, and so did the blogger's I was following. I discovered a lot of other blogs, I started to evolve an interest in beauty, home decor, DIYing and architecture in addition to fashion.
About 2 years ago I found the whole Youtube Community and my interest in beauty and in appreciating and pampering yourself and making yourself look your best rose.
It wasn't until today, that I figured that you don't have to feel the pressure to put on amazing, yet uncomfy outfits every day and drive to a spectacular location, just so you can show off your amazing style. Yes, i HAVE wanted to write a fashion blog for years. But my style and my interests have developed.
Therefore, this blog is going to be about everything I love. There's going to be fashion posts as well as beauty related things, random writing and maybe even DIYing and decorating.
I want to write a blog because I FEEL like doing it, because I love what I do, because I want to share what I do. Not to show you how perfectly uncomfortable it is to sit in a classroom in the freezing cold for 6 hours straight, wearing a skintight minidress and sky high heels.
I just felt like stating this for myself, just to remind myself every now and then, that I don't have to fit into a certain pattern in order to write a blog.
After all, pretty much everyone writes a blog these days and shares whatever they like.
