“Camp is the attempt to do something extraordinary. But extraordinary in the sense, often, of being special, glamorous.” – Susan Sontag
Creating unique content is one of my favorite things about blogging. I love creating images and styling unique looks that take me away from everyday life. Fashion has always been a form of escapism for me and I’m not ashamed to admit it.
I truly believe when it comes to blogging (and Instagram) you have to stay true to your creative style. Honestly, coming to the realization that I’d rather be unfollowed for staying true to myself than followed for being someone I’m not, has just fueled my desire to create.
When I was planning the concept for this shoot, I remember telling Emily Petri, of Emily Petri Photography, that I wanted to go somewhere super casual where I could just be extra aka unapologetically myself. There’s something freeing about truly owning your sense of style and if I can inspire one person to wear something quintessentially “them,” I’ve done my job as an influencer.
In closing, ( if I haven’t made my case for fashion yet 🤣) Rachel Zoe once said “style is a way of saying who you are without having to speak,” and I think there’s so much truth in that. If fashion speaks louder than words, what does your style say about you?
