Hide & Seek

1 Hide & Seek sm

Peek-a-boo! So, maybe I’m mixing up my children’s games, but who’s counting? Counting to 100…ready, set, here I come!

Sorry, I think I got a bit off track there. I’ll start again.

I am featuring another fabulous hairstyle from Hair Fair 2016 today. The sleek afro cap from Vanity Hair immediately caught my eye. It is a style that can be casual or elegant and does wonders for showing off the face and especially the eyes. I simply love it.

Poor Chance wasn’t fortunate enough to get early access to Hair Fair, so he’s sporting an older style. But there are quite a lot of men’s styles available this year, so I’ll try to get him in before Hair Fair ends to update his look. I have him mainly hidden in this photo, but that hasn’t stopped him from seeking what he wants.

My hair, of course.

I Suppose It Will All Make Sense One Day

1 Scattered Dreams sm

Running her fingers through scattered petals like so many shattered dreams, she has to believe it will all make sense one day.

I visited The Outer Garden this weekend. Owned by bisou Dexler, it is a softly beautiful space. It could easily be a romantic location, but for me it was a place for contemplation. While the photograph may seem a bit melancholy, I left feeling light and refreshed.

Do check out my stunning sandals. They are newly released at Kustom9 by fri.day. Exclusively fitted for Maitreya Lara, they are one thing that makes perfect sense.

I don’t even have to wait for “one day” to know this.

A Play-by-play Of Her Mind At Its Freest

1 Carrie sm

A dream is made of equal parts reality and fantasy. Or perhaps, rather than fantasy it is hopes and wishes. Of possibilities and aspirations. Of memories transformed into tales of indulgence and fulfillment, rewritten to salve our subconscious. A juxtaposition of everyday events with faraway desires. They are the attainment of our loftiest goals in our most unguarded state.

Or sometimes, they are simply strange glimpses into how far our imagination can take us.

A girl in lingerie and dangerously high heels atop a sandy mountain, watching a dove peck for food as flowery wind turbines gently tousle her hair. Yes, this is probably more of the latter than the former. But still, it is a legitimate dream, a play-by-play of her mind at its freest.
