What is it about life that we never really seem to have notion of anything that's happening to us? It is only january and I am already wondering if I'll ever be feeling in control of my life again. Maybe I should stop trying. This week has been bad. Really bad to be honest. I desperately wanted to leave and never come back. I am so done with winter already. I could barely get up in the morning, had absolutely no energy and felt like giving up on anything. It does sound pathetic. But unfortunately it's the truth. A lot of things are happening at the moment. Really good things and also terrible things. The balance of life, I guess. But why do we consistently have to be reminded that we cannot always win. Ok, I got it the last couple of times. Why again? How many times will we have to stand up? Can someone please tell me? I feel frustrated and annoyed. I really do. And to be honest, I think that's ok. Maybe I am being immature but who likes to be pushed down all the time? No one, right? I'm sharing this because I want you to know that it is more than alright to feel lost. That's how I feel at the moment. I feel anxious, trapped and miserable. I struggle to believe that it will ever get better. But I will! That's a promise I am giving to you and also to myself. I want you to look in the mirror and to love yourself for everything that you are. You are beautiful and strong and no one will ever take that away from you. Be proud, be brave and have faith in life because at some point it will brighten up! At least that's what I am forcing myself to believe. Today I am wearing my absolute favorite knit wear combo by knit-ted. It is the most comfortable thing I own. Seriously. I am totally in love with it! Another one of my current favorites is this black backpack by Valentino. It has been a gift from a very special person and it is the cutest rucksack I've ever seen! The quality is truly amazing. I have been taking it with me ever since I got it. I hope you are all having a wonderful day and if not...Well, let's fight the january blues together! We will make it through! Love, Paulina Hello Beautiful! Another look from my trip to Tuscany in July. I am missing Italy a lot actually! When I am thinking about traveling my mind often takes me to the most faraway places in the world and sometimes I seem to forget how much beauty there is to find in Europe! All the cute little villages, beautiful "Piazzas", gorgeous hotels and amazing restaurants...I wish I could go back! San Quirico D'Orca is a town near Montepulciano. It is absolutely beautiful and has a typical italian market. Plus,there is a nice little boutique where I found the most perfect baby pink cashmere stole and a lot of other stunning pieces. Looking at these photos I struggle to believe that there is already so much time in between then and now. I wish summer was never going to leave us! What do you think about this look? Yes or No? love, Paulina |
