Hey!
Today might be a mishmash of crazy, because I've really, really been working on this post on and off all day (two days now. Shh), while being slightly distracted by other things. Mainly friends, and hot chicken wings, and the occasional netflix... today has actually been a really nice day.

For the most part, I feel like I explain myself quite well. Sometimes, however, I'm certain that my words get misconstrued and the quote "I'm responsible for what I say, not what you understand" comes to the forefront of my mind. I try to be clear and concise at all times, but even then when I am being my very plainest, there can be unanswered questions.
I feel as though if you (the collective you, not you personally), have questions, you should seek answers to them. If you feel something, you should express it. I believe in attempting to be unequivocably honest with yourself and others so that you can get to know you, and everyone around you knows where they stand.
Yet somehow, there's still room for questioning your motives, or 'people' (again, collective, not personal) can make you question yourself.
I think I might be slightly sleep deprived right now, and I'm not 100% that I'm making sense. Haha.
Ultimately, be human, be open, be honest.
xoxo

Decor : Refuge - Livy Chair @ Illuminate

I've been thinking for a while about this post. Mostly, thinking about the significance of the empty chairs. I think there's always a reason you do something in life, and sometimes those reasons are more obvious than others.

For me, I think the chairs signify that although I am somewhat broken, curled into a self-healing ball at the moment, there's still room at my table for good people. At least, I hope that's what it is. 

I have really been making an effort to step out of my comfort zone, and off of my platform and encounter some new people. It's just terribly unfortunate that a lot of the people I seem to meet like to place me into a box that *I* feel I don't belong.

I get told I'm too much of something. Too serious. Expecting too much of people. That while I appear 'different' at first, I end up being just the same as everyone else.

I'm not sure if that's entirely true. I certainly don't feel like everyone else, and much of the time, I don't feel like anyone is ever going to understand me, much as I try to explain who I am... and those that DO know me, do they really know ME or just the reflection of myself that I project on them?

I'm in a bit of a weird head-space at the moment, trying to sort out my thoughts from my feelings, and I suppose that's kind of being reflected in this picture, too.

Sometimes I like to watch the people on Youtube, and one of the chanels I enjoy is Safiya Nygaard.

If you don't know who she is, I've linked her stuffs >HERE<. Basically, what she does is take a theme for her video, usually fashion or beauty, and then she'll run off and make herself into a 1960's fashionista, or dress like a store mannequin for a week. She's fun, relevant and her personality is just quirky and awkward enough to appeal but be successful in her delivery of information.

In one of her videos she decided to dress for her star sign, and then followed fashion magazines suggestions for a week. This intrigued me, because I've always had a vague interest in star signs (not sure how much I believe, but I DO enjoy reading about mine) and obviously, fashion is pretty important to me too.

When I read the Gemini Horoscope from Glamour >HERE< the whole thing made complete sense, even down to the colour palette & textures used - which is actually one of my favourite of recent posts. I have always loved yellow and sunflowers, and even before I had read my fashion horoscope this post was in my mind... it's comfortable to me. It's wearable, fashionable without being in-your-face, has a pop of colour for a little bit of attention and I would honestly wear this kind of thing in real life. All the points on the Glamour article were correct - and it makes me wonder, ARE horoscopes geared toward being suitable for everyone, and its just coincidence that I fall into this category, or is this an actual science? I feel like I'll never fully understand the whole horoscope thing, but it's often fun to delve into it and have a look at how it's 'supposed' to impact your life.
