There are times when you have to make desicisons, whether simple (which shoes to wear?) or complicated ones (should I break this relationship off?) , in which you project yourself to be in two or threes. There is an ongoing battle of whose opinion matters most. In the end there is always a victor. It amazes me how man can have this ability to process information to create solutions.
About the look:
This inner turmoil I see myself as the multi armed goddessShiva. No, Im not trying to be the goddess of death. I just see myself having different sides of that oftentimes 'battle' to be able to win. Thats the closest I can figure to imagining battle- in the mind.
Again I chose to include multi cultural elements in my look:) love the mix of prints and color ranging from African block prints(Scarf) to the english rose patterned brocade (soft blazer), to the mexican knit patterns (bag), to the velvet fez hat worn as part of national greek costume. Love that they clash in terms of usage and context but they seamlessly blend in terms of color and look.
