Anonymous asked: Hello, do you sometimes feel guilt over your love of fashion, because of the way it leads to conceit/self-admiration? Just curious because I myself am conflicted between my desire to look good/find my own style and ridding myself of vanity. Sigh, it's definitely a pickle lol.
Oh definitely. Fashion has that side effect on people, especially when you own a style blog. I regularly have moments where I become quite annoyed at myself for wasting so much time looking at clothes or shoes, instead of trying to do something more positive in the world. But I have to remind myself that owning a blog and trying to find my own sense of style is just a part of who I am, my blog only shows the world a fleck of my personality really. So I try to keep that in mind and realize that clothes aren’t everything. But I do try to keep myself grounded by doing other things that don’t concern frivolousness. For instance, if you’ve read my tumblr it has posts on various activist, feminist and humanitarian concerns. Keeping a balance of different things definitely helps.
