While channeling my inner style--what I like to call 'unicorn throwup'-- in Morocco was rather difficult, given that most Moroccans dressed like normal human beings (and attracting more attention to myself, on top of already doing shoots in public, was not at the top of my things-I-should-be-doing list), I was able to break it out a bit the same morning Alex and I woke up early and sneaked out to do this shoot catching the sunrise on the rooftop of our hotel, as we were not expecting to run into many people at such an early time. (To our dismay, we did) (It was really awkward) (bc we apparently were shooting right in front of the entrance to his home) (whoops)
But gosh do I miss this weather. Here in Chicago the weather is slowly tip-toeing towards a polar vortex again aka an infinite bitter sub-zero mess of broken dreams and skin.
In other news please enjoy a time-lapse of me slowly becoming friends with a cat.

Aw thank you Jackie! You're always so sweet! xx

Wow I love the new blog layout, the banner design is just adorable! Also, love love this post-- your outfit is amazing and I must admit I have a huge thing for clashing patterns. I adore how it's so out there yet still can be considered stylish. It's so awkward taking photos in places where ppl don't see that happening too often (I felt so same way in Singapore and got many weird stares haha), luckily in the bigger cities there are so many bloggers that ppl barely bat an eye when you take the camera out and snap shots :D
ReplyDeleteThat cat is adorable, definitely a friend worth making ;) The background is also beautiful and I love how you captured the area so well!

Haaha thank you! Fashion blogging is actually pretty huge in Morocco! Except, there aren't many female fashion bloggers and space is so interesting in Morocco--the streets are male-dominated, and the domestic sphere is female dominated, which does help make things more awkward/uncomfortable when taking up a lot of space, visually, on the streets as a woman!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I tried optimizing my blog for photos, as they are the highlight of the blog! And I am pretty excited about the banner design too c;
ReplyDeleteAnd yes! We thought the quiet, dim alleyways around our hotel would be the best place to bring loud, noisy prints and patterns, so I'm glad you also enjoyed the space! :)
haha thank you! The cat really makes the look complete! ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy it! And thank you for dropping by! Hope to see you again c;
ReplyDeletehahah I totally agree! There quite a bit more cats there when we started shooting, but this little guy was the only one that decided to stick around and play! c;
ReplyDeleteyou did the print mix so well!

New outfit post up on my blog
featuring TWO WAYS HOW TO STYLE A SUIT FOR WOMEN
I love this outfit!!! The mix of print was genius!!! Seriously, I love those pants and I love those pics, the streets are really cool. I also hate when people stares at me when taking pictures, I just get so embarrassed lol and then my pictures are not that great because you can see the awkwardness in my face! Anyways, thanks for sharing these gorgeous pics with us and hopefully it won't get too cold too son in Chicago!

Oh my, thank you Jodie! c: I think the key to pattern clashing is really just to pretend you're making a collage or visual art rather than consciously over-thinking what shirt goes well with which pants! Haha acting on impulse is usually is your best bet! c;
ReplyDeleteGahhh so sweet--thank youuu! Shooting in public is something Alex is, by force, making me break out of. That and not looking at the camera. It's a slow and painful process that I feel like needs to get done!
ReplyDeleteP.S. what even are you saying your photos are so great!
these are amazing photos and the outfit you're wearing is adorable! love how we can see the cat warming up to you as the photos progress.
