WHO ARE YOU?
Photography by Me
As I sit here thinking of something meaningful to say,
all I can think of is a quote by Brandy in her album, Human.
"What I feel being a human being is, it's having the
freedom to be yourself. Not caring what other people think, just having that
freedom to be you and not being afraid because if you’re not yourself then who
are you?"
The older I get, the more I realize just how true this
statement is. Society has a way of making you feel inferior when you don't
conform to the set standards but there is a freedom that comes with knowing who
you are and not being scared of the opinions of others. So who are you?
This skirt was previously styled here.
Looking back I feel I could have done more with the outfit which is why I knew
I had to step it up this time around. I like to keep things modern and classy when
it comes to styling midi-skirts. Hence I paired the skirt with my burgundy top
which is a basic I can’t live without as I’ve styled it here, here, here and here in the past. I decided to go with my
lace-up booties just to edge the look up and the purse for a pop of
colour.
Skirt: Vintage | Top: Stradivarius | Heels: Zalora Thailand | Belt: Workshop Thailand | Purse: Thailand
It’s locations like this that make me miss having a
photographer but I’m giving myself a pat on the back for this shoot, one of my
favourites thus far. Thoughts?

Society has a way of making us conform without us realizing, but at the same time, makes us feel inferior when you do. It's a vicious cycle, and I think the best way to avoid it, is to ignore it.
ReplyDeleteI love your outfit, how can you be so confident to take photos of yourself in public? I'm always sooo terrified! That's why i've only done it once...haha

I think conforming is such an innate part of society that when we don't do it, we're completely disregarded.
ReplyDeleteI love the look, by the way! You're so classy and chic, and the burgundy tone is absolutely gorgeous!

They tell you to be yourself but then they judge you. It's this crazy life we live in. But I agree with you, as long as you know who you are and you don't care about what people think, that's all that matter!
ReplyDeleteLove the color combination in your outfit, and you are really great at taking your own pictures! I wish I was bold enough to go to public places to shoot haha :p
xx
@Diane it's crazy indeed
ReplyDeleteThank you all for the amazing feedback on my photography. It comes with the territory hence I'm used the stares and questions. Besides all the good locations here are in public places, so a girls got to do what a girls got to do lol.
You are right, when i catch myself felling bad because i dont look a certain way society has made the best way, i just remind myself i am unique. Nice outfit and great photography.

This shoot went well, you chose the location well. I love the burgundy top, and the skirt too.
ReplyDeleteThat quote just makes one sit back and take a deep thought. In all entirety though, everyone should feel no pressure of being people they are not....but half the time people always feel they aren't good enough and up living someone elses' life which is a waste really. Thanks for sharing.
Kisses.
