The wild and the free
"They say if you dream a thing more than once, it's sure to come true"
It is being a few weeks since last time I posted. I have to be honest, I was starting to miss it!
Ten years ago today, my shy self would live to take pictures. Maybe I was like any other teen or maybe I had a passion for it that I did not even know about. I would take pictures of myself for hours every day (I guess when selfies were starting to be a thing). I would take pictures on every corner of my house. Without knowing I understood lighting, angles and the beauty that every little detail makes.
At that time, all I had was the first version of a smartphone but for me is all I need it. Years passed and I will immerse myself with pictures, not really knowing what could I get out of it, not sharing. Just my phone and I. When I turned 18 all I wanted was a camera so I budgeted for a very small cannon. I remembered being so happy, my cheeks would get full and all I would do and want to do would be to take pictures of all the beauty surrounding me. At that time is when I started sharing a bit of my passion but still, I was not giving all my 100%. I was still shy, self conscious and a very reserved person, I guess deep down I was scared of failing but looking back I never let myself try.
A year after purchasing my first camera I put it away and never again used it. The following years I will continue to take pictures here and there. Continue to love photography and fashion and learning all about it. Fast forward to today, 2019 has brought a lot of good changes for me. I needed to stop worrying about what people will say, I needed to stop being self conscious and shy. I needed to put myself out there and fail trying. I needed to show myself out there, big or small, bloated, with cellulite, pimple no pimple etc... you get the point! I wanna explore the side of my twelve year old that always liked fashion and travel photography. The part of me I put away when I left home to study abroad.
Now, March 2019 I am back with my phone learning and enjoying life. It is very tough at times for my personality but everyday I push myself to give another 125% of me.
I really try making the story as short as possible!! Did not want anybody to fall asleep (laugh!)
The outfit consist of 3 of the most popular trend right now, a pink chain pattern shirt paired with and all black outfit of a plain top and cycling shorts. As for shoes, of course it had to be chunky sneakers. Is not everybody cup of tea but since is a very sporty look, I thought they looked amazing.
As for the pictures, I followed the vintage retro trend since the outfit is quite like it.
Hope you enjoy! Also do not forget to check out at the end, the video I have put together with this outfit!

Bellow please check out the second video I made putting together this outfit!! I know my editing skills and photography are beyond perfect but I am truly passionate about fashion and creating content. It will mean the world if you could spend a few minutes watching this video!!!
