Shes got a wildheart.

This summer has been crazy busy so far, so that's why there haven't been any posts recently, I'm so sorry :(
But i have been taking billions of photo's, as I've been to London and been going out a lot back home in Wales too.

About a month ago I went for a walk (because who doesn't like walks?) around the village my dad used to live in, I'd forgotten how pretty it looked when it was sunny, since it had been raining loads around then. 

So here are some photos from that day. I don't know, they may seem kinda boring to you, but they came out so clear and pretty that I really wanted to put them up on here. 

I hoped you liked them, keep a look out from some more fashion related photo's soon, as I recently did another set of photos with Robin, it was such a fun shoot and I'm really pleased with some of the photo's.

Talk soon, I hope you're all having a lovely summer,
Love,
Annie

Expression / In and Out of Focus

Todays post is a little different from usual, a hybrid of essay/questions with no answers sort of post? It started of as an uninteresting OOTD post, when i decided to include some pieces of writing I've done recently, and then the topic sort of swayed a little when all my shots were coming out unfocused (the pros of having to use self-timer mode, eh?) Who even writes essays in their three - month holidays from school? Me, that's who. 

ex·pres·sion

noun

1.

the act of expressing or setting forth in words: the free expression of political opinions.

2.

a particular word, phrase, or form of words: old-fashioned expressions.

3.

the manner or form in which a thing is expressed in words; wording; phrasing: delicacy of expression.

4.

the power of expressing in words: joy beyond expression.

5.

indication of feeling, spirit, character, etc., as on the face, in the voice, or in artistic execution: thelyric expression embodied in his poetry.

Expressing oneself in today's society can come in many forms. The main way people express themselves (especially in younger generations) is appearance. Clothes, shoes, hair dye, tattoos  piercings, its an essential part of growing up and becoming who you are to many people. But sometimes, we can get so caught up in trying to stand out on the outwards that maybe we don't realise we can all look the same and we should be trying to stand out on the inside too? Or is that just me? Blame the lack of tea. 

Private expression (this is writing, art, photography ect to me) has akways been part of my life I could say. I have always done writing, and music, and drawing. Everyone has some form of private expression I think. So thats why I included these tiny snippets of writing in my photos today. the first one is mine, and the second piece is just lyrics  all wrapped together from one of my favourite songs at the moment.

The second thing I want to talk about today is focusing on things in life. Like, really focusing on something and trying to improve yourself as much as you can in that particular thing. That's what I feel like I need to do at the moment. I feel like the focus on somethings have been lost, and i need to re focus on them. Do you ever feel like that sometimes? I guess these pictures somehow unintentionally reflect those feelings.  

And I just included this last picture not because it fits in with the theme of this post but because I loved the light in it so much. Apologies for that ;)

Top / H and M
Skirt / Topshop
Boots / Some random French store

Cherry Ghost - A Month of Mornings

Changing by the minute and the record on repeat.

Aloha there, its me, that long lost blogger who got lost in a sea storm of exams. Hyperbole may of been used there, but seriously, I have been consumed by exam fever. I thought once I started my study leave, I would have time to blog. I didn't. My camera, once used every single day, was abandoned in a corner of my room to gather dust. Now, with only one exam left (the dreaded calculator maths), I feel like I have some more time to blog. This summer (11 weeks long babyyyy), will definitley be one full of blogging! So, without further ado, here is my OOTD post for you all, neon crop tops and all...

But look at this little camera my dad found and gifted to me the other day! Its a tiny pinhole camera with no shutter mechanism, and I cant wait to try using it. However, me being the indecisive being that I am, cant decide whether to use colour or black and white film, what do you guys think?

Crop top // Topshop
Skirt // Enjoy Vintage Shop, Truro
Nike Blazers // Office

Thats it for my now lovelies, see you soon and I hope your all having a fabulous day!

Love, 
Annie

The Strokes - You Only Live Once

i came out of the woods by choice

I have been so terribly busy over the past few weeks that blogging has completely flown my mind, not unlike how the birds have flown the country in search of weak sunlight.

But here I am again typing away on my blog, bringing you lovely people some of my favourite photo's I've taken over the past year. I always find December a perfectly nostalgic month, one for looking back and reflecting over the past year, and looking forward to the year ahead.

1.bare tree  // 2.contrast // 3.my friend isis, somewhere in shropshire // 4.sunlight on the isle of wight // 5.sunset over west wales // 6.flowers // 7.smoke // 8.storm clouds // 9. bright lights almost // 10. my friend beci // 11. bare trees (again, they are one of my favourite things ever to photograph and draw) // 12.beginnings of a sunset over tuscany

comments are always appreciated, as always.
