Hello All....
I have been so useless this week with posting, inspiration just hasn't hit. I cant imagine what it must be like as a writer and you hit this mental block, must be so frustrating. Anyway I am going to force it out of me and see where it goes...
Lately I have been obsessing over 3 things, converse, skateboards and long hippy blonde hair. I have absolutely no doubt that I along with 1 million others are thinking the exact same thing. What a weird obsession to have! Back in the day I was always a barbie playing, dress wearing, hop scotch hopping type of a girl. Tom-boy(ism) was never a big part of my nature, however clearly the new trend is to be exactly that. Feminine acts such as Audrey Hepburn whistling down a cab in Breakfast at Tiffanys with her pearls and LBD have turned into something very much of the past. The new thing to do is to walk out your home and hop on your skateboard and look incredibly groovy doing it. It's all over Tumblr, Instagram, pinterest etc. there's always an ocean to the left with a beautiful sunset, beanies and ray-bans, girls holding hands with their skater besties or their incredibly cool looking boyfriends. Those pictures really leave me feeling inspired. It just looks far to cool...
But in Reality...
I would 100% fall and break something and my whole hipster, skater girl look would crumble as quickly as my poor bones would. I'd break my ray-bans, lose my beanie and probably scruff my converse into waste. Doesn't sound so appealing to me now. Is it really the skateboarding that girls love or is it the kick ass pictures we get to instagram? If its the latter, hook me up with a funky board and I'll sit on it, the whole way along the promenade. Maybe the bestie or bf could pull me along with a string? Now we're thinking! I think I will stick to my fantasy of a New York cab or a Blair Waldorf chauffeured car.
Slightly precocious, but had to say it!
