Going up and down this little forest path, strutting my stuff and looking casual and cool at the same time? That's what I try to portray with these outfit pictures. And boy did I felt cold when trying to look okay and natural infront of the camera - while a couple started walking slower and slower as they came closer to this blogger fest. They must've thought -

What is this girl doing taking pictures in the cold? I've never seen this before.. don't know how to feel about this, so I just pretend to look at the river until she's done.

And that's exactly what they did. When we were done shooting they suddenly started walking again and as I passed them by I got this weirded out look from the old man. Thanks to my photographer that day everything went pretty smoothly.

A lot of things we do as bloggers are pretty unnatural. "Hold on. Take a picture of me when I'm drinking my tea. Hold on. Take a picture of when I come out of the store, it will look very spontaneous. Oh and let me gaze into the horizon and think deep thoughts." My love for creating outfits has become a different reality. Spontaneous moments are hard to catch and are only captured when having someone creative behind the camera. Which for me, is rare.

So here I am putting all my effort into these pictures. And it only takes three seconds to go through this post. I hope I'm not one click away to the next one.. At least I have a really cool portfolio and extension of my CV to show everyone. Which I don't take for granted at all. Stay warm and cosy today. Catch up on you later.
