for atelier indigo+tim walker

Hi you guys! So I write for this amazing magazine called Atelier Indigo, and it's an online magazine with writers and models from all over the fashion blogger hemisphere. We just launched our first issue, so please check it out HERE. It's a pretty dang cool magazine, and I'm the cover model. I also wrote an article, which looking back, kind of sucks. But the magazine is still amazing and full of creative genius! The theme for June's issue was dreams/fairy tales, so here is a surreal/dreamy inspiration post, which basically just consists of Tim Walker photos and short films.

Here are some screenshots I took of my favorite moments from the video.

Oh my god. I could seriously just watch this again and again. It's so perfect and amazing and emotion inducing and the old man is so lovable and the girl is just like amazing and it's all so beautiful and the aesthetics are amazing and HOLY CRAP. I need this. I want to see the full length version so bad! I'm going to make a t-shirt that says The Lost Explorer in honor of the best short film trailer I've ever seen, and in honor of the best movie that I'll ever see once I see it. I am The Lost Explorer.

teen spirit in a mundane fashion

I have been in such a terrible mood. I've seriously come home everyday from school and just wanted to crawl into my bed and cry. This makes absolutely no sense, considering usually my school days are decent. People are nice to me, I talk to my friends, make new friends, laugh, get good grades, and then I just get into these horrible mood funks and life sucks. I feel so selfish when I'm in those "ihatemylifeleavemealoneijustwanttocrywhydoesntanyonelikemeifeelsoalone" moods, because I feel like I really have nothing to be unhappy about. I have a really good life, and yet I'm still unhappy... WHAT IS THIS? I suppose this is most likely just the so called "average teenage girl mood swings" but it just SUCKS. I want to be happy, and yet I feel more unhappy, than happy? It's just so weird and life is so emotional and complicated even though my life really isn't complicated at all and is actually quite simple compared to most of the shitty stuff people go through.

Here is a playlist I made to help express teen angst and longing. I sound so mundane, it's kind of pathetic. I've seriously been so boring though lately. The reason I haven't posted any outfits recently is because I've been too tired to dress decently in the mornings. I'm losing my motivation, this is not good! I need to get some new clothes to help inspire my obsession for dressing.

I'm in the mood to post some photos, so here are some that have been on my desktop for ages. I've lost most of the sources, so if you know the source just let me know.

I wish my life was like these photographs, all pretty and interesting and mysterious and quirky and stuff.
