My Inspiration board

Here is a look inside my very own inspiration board (well in the form of a book). It was important for me to start one last summer. Every time an idea would spark, it would take roughly 10 seconds before I would discredit the idea, losing the battle to logistics and assumptions; “I don’t have enough time, it’s too complicated, the idea is too extreme it’ll never happen, etc….” I’ve also been called a dreamer quite often by my family or friends, and though it usually tends to sound like a bad thing, I view it as a completely positive thing. Im determined to make the things I want to have happen really happen. My thoughts wander, and I sometimes get overwhelmed by all the things i aspire to do in my life, but as a very visual person, this book has allowed me to the privilege of comforting referrals every time I do get overwhelmed; a constant reminder of what is possible. I also tend to stick anything in it that catches my eye, magazine articles, paper stubs, and individuals that have never failed to inspire me. And as for that charming little jar at the end, it holds the book marks I make (I try to make a new one for every book i read).

One of my fashion icons is the wonderful Alexa Chung. I envy and admire her effortless, rolled out of bed look and her inevitable way of pulling off masculine clothes in a girly way. It is absolutely impressive. My outfit for today has a boyfriend/Chung inspired look. I really love how chunky the top is (Simons). Almost as much as i love buttoned up collars. As for my new, beloved oxfords, they are from L’Intervalle, a Montreal based shoes store located on Mont-Royal.
