THE UNSTYLISH TRAVELER

COUNTRY ROAD BLAZER (similar here and here) / GANNI TOP / AG JEANS / VINTAGE SCARF / SWAROVSKI BRACELET

Now, after an amazing time in Australia I stand before that glorious 28 hour journey back to London. As much as I can loose myself in "How (insert gorgeous celebrity) travels in style" articles, I have had to face the fact, that for me, looking even just moderately stylish whilst traveling is completely unattainable. Any slight heel would loose it's height by the time I got to Singapore by the weight of my massive backpack (yes, backpack, and we're talking XXL). Indeed, you shall find me completely unkempt, no make-up - not even concealer - with my head down in my back pack in a desperate attempt to find contacts. This, my friends, is why I put sticky-tape over the camera on my phone pointed towards me. It's something that lies deep within me and I believe also our culture, a faulted myth of human history, that self-esteem and self-worth lies in those outer components and that we constantly need to keep up appearances, even when we're on the go, to be worthy of others' attention, kindness and time. Sidetracking it, I know, but it's a subject I'd like to dig into more at another time!

However, having been involved with a certain fairy-tale picture recently, I can't say it hasn't rekindled the idea, that at some point in my life I will magically transform into a stylish jet-set unicorn with a 24/7 glorious yoga glow going on. I don't know how much coconut water it's going to take, but let me know and I'll fill in the order right now!



HOPE YOU'RE HAVING A REALLY WONDERFUL START TO YOUR WEEK
