11 THINGS ABOUT MYSELF
  1. My family is literally the most important thing in the world to me.
  2. I love being outdoors. I believe that too often we forget that we are a part of nature and inherently connected to it.
  3. I hate technology but don't know how to live without it.
  4. I am my biggest critic and my own worst enemy.
  5. Even though I think it's a good thing, I don't adapt easily to change.
  6. I am obsessed with horror movies. Especially old, black and white vampire movies, like Nosferatu, and classic zombie movies a la George Romero.
  7. One of my most pressing dreams is to see the world and have amazing, life-changing experiences.
  8. Sometimes I wish my life was a little bit more like a John Hughes movie.
  9. For a large part of my life all I wanted to do was be a classical musician.
  10. I feel like my experience of high school poisoned me against things that are actually valuable in life.
  11. I want to be a blues singer in a dark smokey club lounge.

STEPHANIE'S 11 QUESTIONS

1. How you love spending your time? The best way to spend my time is with my family. I am house-sitting at the moment and experiencing severe separation anxiety! I also love getting lost in the world of literature and music.
2. Two clothing items that you can't live without? At the moment I would have to say my high-waisted shorts and crop tops (this will probably change soon, with winter drawing closer and all that)
3. What can people learn from your blog? Or what do you want them to? Of course this is primarily a fashion blog, so I hope to inspire others with my style (I feel quite narcissistic writing this). But my blog isn't only about fashion. It's also about contemplating life and daily frustrations, so I hope my readers are able to take something useful from my ramblings. 4. If you could pack your bags right now and move to another city, which one would it be? I'd probably choose somewhere in Greece or Turkey, because I'm really fascinated by the culture at the moment.
5. If you could meet one famous person, who would you choose? Hmm, this is a tough one, there are so many inspiring figures. Can I choose someone who is dead?? Because I would love to be able to have a conversation with Michel Foucault or John Lennon.
6. A sunny day at the beach or a cold, snowy day at the mountains? A sunny day at the beach wins every time.
7. Most amazing thing, memory or day of your life? This is such a difficult question to answer. I guess the memory, or actually memories that stand out the most in my mind are those days in my childhood, when everything was simple and life was full of promise. I remember days spent playing in the garden with my sister, building puzzles with my mom on rainy days, and getting piggy-back rides from my dad. It is these moments that I cherish the most. 8. Favourite scent? The smell of bread baking is truly amazing.
9. Describe your style in 3 words. Eclectic, retro, colourful.
10. What is the motto of your life? "See everything, and ourselves in everything, healed and whole, forever".
11. What is your favourite beauty product? Probably mascara...I have really pathetic eyelashes.

MY 11 QUESTIONS
1. Who is your style icon?? 2. What are two of your worst habits?? 3. Are you a morning person or a night owl?? 4. What is your favourite song at the moment?? 5. What do you do if you are having a really bad day?? What calms you down?? 6. If you could only wear one outfit for the rest of your life, what would it be?? 7. What would your superhero name be?? 8. What is your favourite accessory?? 9. What inspired you to start blogging?? 10. All time favourite movie??
11. If you were stranded on a desert island and could take 3 things with you (excluding human beings), what would you choose to take??
