Instagram Recap: Best of #radicalselflovejuly

Flower power

I haven't done an Instagram recap for a while, and since a lot of you don't follow me over there I decided to share some pics with you :) July was special cause I did the Gala Darling's #radicalselflove challenge. For those of you who don't know, Gala's been one of my fave bloggers for like 5 years now, and I really like it when she posts these monthly "challenges" where you get a lovely happy  new "theme" each day and the point is - you guessed it - self love. I also connected with many beautiful bloggers thanks to the #radicalselflove hashtag, so go check it out if you like the idea, and maybe join some of her future challenges :)

Outfit: Jewels & Tattoos

I like jewelry and tattoos, so of course I had to try the flash tattoos trend, they're just so cool I wish I could wear them every day. Unfortunately as they last only about two days depending on where you apply them, it's best to save them for special occasions when you go out. Since I wear this much jewelry I usually prefer to keep the rest of my outfit simple - all black.

OOTD: Trying Out My Camera

Shirt, jeggings: H&M,, bag: Sourpuss, shoes: Lacoste, vest: Tally Weijl

I finally dug up my old camera and decided to get a tripod, so here are some "test-shots" I did. I figured it's much easier to take my own outfit photos when I have inspiration, than expect someone else to do it for me. Besides, I feel much more comfortable posing in my own company than when I have someone standing behind the camera, even if it's my best friend. Also, I have my own backyard, so from now on most of my outfit posts will be shot in my "secret garden". This is just my casual "walking around the hood", going to the hair salon, doing the shopping etc. kind of outfit, I mostly just wear black and white, and then I added this beautiful purse and cat sunglasses as glam details.

Outfit; Cocktails First, Questions Later

Shirt: Reserved, skirt: New Yorker, bag: Guess, creepers: Foxy up

Here are a few pics I took the other Monday. We went for a walk and afterwards sat down for some cocktails and desserts. On the menu were: non-alcoholic cocktail with tropical syrup and ice-cream, pancakes with white and black chocolate and caipirinha.

Outfit Post: Iron Fist

You've seen the items individually in my previous post, and in this post and the next one I'm gonna show you how I put them together. What can I say, I love mixing girly/glamorous with edgy stuff, pink and black, sequins and skulls, bows and monsters, animal prints and studs - you get the idea. I always like to "match the unmatchable" It's just my style and I don't feel like I need to change it or justify myself to anyone. I'm also not the one to follow trends blindly. If it ain't broken, don't fix it.
