Normcore Uniforms | Identity Crisis Averted

According to some very fancy psychologists, millennials are going through an identity crisis as a result of our quickly changing world without the stereotypical role models. Are normcore, trends and the concept of millennials giving us our sense of belonging back?

Bold Blue | SS16 Makeup

Is it possible to incorporate runway makeup into your daily life? Well, I have made it my mission! My daily makeup with the blushed cheeks and the simple eye makeup is just not cutting it anymore. I need some color! And there was plenty of color in the Spring Summer ‘16 runway makeup. So, I delved into the photo archive of pretty much every fashion magazine and selected some of my favorite looks. (I might have made a mood board as well. Read: this might turn into a little series!) The first look I decided to go for is a mix of the Fendi graphic liner and the blue eye makeup obsession.

This Is Not Enough

I have been considering to start vlogging. Not the kind where you sit down and talk to a camera. No. The document your life kind of vlogs that capture the beauty of the little things. The things we tend to forget. We don’t have any trouble remembering graduations, weddings, births, buying of first apartments and houses and cars and… It is the small things we forget. The smile after you see someone you love appear or that warm and fuzzy feeling you get from that first sip of coffee in the morning when you have waited that tiny bit longer before drink it. Those are the things I would like to capture. Beautiful heartwarming things. But lately I haven’t been noticing any of those. Trains and busses get missed, people are forgotten, friendships fizzle out and dreams turn out to be too far out of reach. I can’t shake the feeling that all of it might not be worth it. All the effort and heartbreak, what does it bring us? I see more and more lives wasted, people giving up on what they once truly believed in and I can’t help but feel like I’m lost in a sea of ugly. But then again that might be all the more reason to look harder, to get that camera and find the beauty worth fighting for.
