Gypsy ✝ Spirit

Looking through my closet, I feel like I’m missing something. Now, I have the blazers, the boots, the scarfs, and all things that scream “Autumn’s Here!” but my fall wardrobe is definitely missing a “dazzling” kick. One word: sequins. Top designers like Pucci, Marc Jacobs, Mulberry, Vera Wang, Balmain and plenty more made the runways sparkle and light up with hot sequined skirts, leggings, dresses and pumps. Amp your closet up with some shimmer and shine this fall.

Sequins can be easy to integrate into daily casual wear. Opt for simple pieces like sequined hats, flats, or vests like in the two outfits featured above, to have that brilliant gleam even on simple days when going to class or to the mall.

When going out, turn the lights up by making your sequined tops or bottoms the center of your outfits attention. Mix and match, and really take the glitz and glam to another level.

one restless night i wondered if you lost sleep too

trying to figure me out like i try to figure out you

but you don’t. you sleep like a baby.

well…isn’t that nice?

I can never tell if we had chemistry or not

I’ve always hated science.

But, hey, you continue to sleep tight as I do these logarithms in my head

Conducting experiments, wishing, hoping to understand

Why I’m constantly losing sleep alone…?

He just came to my friend’s school. I am jealous.

gossips brewing like black coffee or sweet tea, sweetie. people had a li’l hunch, hun, had a tingling feeling we were some spring fling floating.

& as detached as I try to be, I am easily turned to velcro after constant considering, pushing, forcing to have that open-minded kiss with fate.

but if you have no desire to stick around… :)

if you gwan push: push. if you gwan pull, away: peace.

:) t’is easy, that thing called consistency.

I missed the days when emotions were consistent waves of feelings that were predictable, understandable, and compatible. When I got candy, I’d smile. When I got food, I’d eat. When I fell, I’d cry. Simple.

Feelings now are tainted with too many emotional heart strings that get pulled up and down like marionettes. Sentiments get tugged & yanked, like a game of rope-war, then suddenly, are sent spiraling down and shooting upwards like a rollercoaster ride. & though puppets are fun, tug-o-war is amusing, and rollercoasters are exhilarating: these feelings are none of those. They are pitiful, annoying, and in-the-way. Feelings are never neutral, either. They mirror the extremities of flames & ice & rain. Always.

I want to go back to days when things were simple. When feelings were cemented in actual actions and only actions; I didn’t think too deep, for I was naive and ignorant and innocent. Because this knowledge drives me closer towards crazy than anything. When I was naive, I didn’t persecute without reason, judge without verdict, and accuse without understanding. I focused on myself, I was a selfish little thing, but through that selfishness I didn’t bother myself with anyone else’s troubles. I didn’t indulge in sweet temptations that weren’t cookies cakes & unhealthy fried things. I was open minded, questioning, & openly learned. I need to find that internal Ubermensch again.

Now I strive for complication.
