My desk is so much more than a workspace. It’s my artistic sanctuary where I work on my creative writing, my journaling, my drawing, and any other crafts.

I spend so much time at my desk that it’s a priority for me to have a workspace that inspires and motivates me to work well. In anything I do.

My Style Staples: a cozy, vintage look book

My Style Staples: a cozy, vintage look book

A couple years ago, I didn’t have a personal aesthetic or style of dress. I was a university student travelling from place to place, sitting around for hours at a time, so it made sense to wear something comfortable. Whatever was casual and convenient at the time.

I think 2018 was the year I started to focus on my personal aesthetic. I figured out what colours, fabrics and styles I liked. I’ll be honest and say Pinterest and Instagram were a huge help. All the endless scrolling through photos to find inspirational look books is the thing that pushed me to find my own style.

I always look back, thinking if I had been given more freedom, I might’ve been more comfortable and sure of myself. I’m sure you’ve all felt the same way at one point or another. Who am I? What do I like? Who do I want to be?
