Ended up rhyming like Eminem…
The world has now turned into a dystopian nightmare, everyone’s insensitive, we have all become so shallow and unapologetically lusty that we are constantly objectifying and commoditising each other, morphing ourselves in order to fit a particular image which is not only “desirable” but also respected more than a well dressed girl, we now have several people who look & behave the same inside out thanks to numerous surgeries and scathing skin procedures, we bother more about being “politically correct” than right, we are constantly emphasising on superficial attributes, selling out babies and kids on internet, ignoring science or common sense, no age gap between two pregnancies cuz the elder one isn’t “cute” anymore to please your online audience, no sensitivity, no real emotions or feelings, people are rampantly getting married and pregnant out of competition, *hilariously* cringy squats have now replaced good diet and physical fitness, in short the world has gone insane. But then I realised I have created a small world of my own… when I went back to my iPhone’s photo section, I saw beautiful colour schemes, interiors, clippings, cutouts and lots of fashion related stuff and I realised how toxic social media can be especially with celebrities/media people around, it can violate our minds even subconsciously. I love my room and all the interiors which take me back in time and my wardrobe, my own stuff which might not be designer (I do have my old designer things) but honestly it’s way better alhamdullilah than what they have… they don’t have all this fancy stuff and I do appreciate that 😇 I really hope I get to use everything one day considering how sick and suic*dal I am, I keep losing hope (and heart). I love my world of Nostalgia & Aesthetics - where the true definition not only means beauty or outer-physical appeal but also (the term Aesthetic belongs to a broader spectrum) for me, it means something Artistic, Beauty with an edge, the lost charm of yesteryears or something quaint & memorable, poetic & romantic, sophisticated or chic, it includes different colour palettes mostly monotones where we again use classic shades such as Beiges, Taupes, Neutrals and deeper hues like Black & Grey or sober pastels from the 90s. It sometimes refers to minimalism but it can also highlight statement pieces, be it in fashion or art, jewelry or even interiors. For me it has become a way of life, an utmost appreciation for all the little things which bring a smile on your face, it’s like a totally different realm which is not only nostalgic but also timeless. And although it tends to get slightly restrictive when it comes to blogging, I do feel it gives me complete freedom to incorporate whatever I want including fragments of my past & old outworn memories into something creative and visibly enthralling, I don’t like sticking to any particular theme or concept but you eventually end up with that… considering the dynamism in my taste I feel I might be more inclusive than most other people and I can show more versatility in whatever I share here www.instagram.com/cashmerevanilla.co & kissofcashmere.tumblr.com (username wasn’t available) for now you can browse my journal on Tumblr: TheSecretAttic and someday I’ll get back to my first love - Fashion, also art and interiors (I’ll be covering that as well)
