Redefine

I appreciate all forms of art. I appreciate all forms of beauty. Don't get me wrong, this is a fashion blog but I draw inspiration from everywhere, I don't want my blog to be confined to the realm of fashion.

Where I live isn't the best in Sydney, but I love it and it's been home for almost 15 years. It's such a melting pot and it's full of culture. I had gone to my local GP and noticed that the graffiti in an alley way had changed. I wished I had photographed it before they painted over it, because the images sprayed up on the walls were amazing. I personally love graffiti. I think the colours, composition and nature of graffiti is beautiful. Unfortunately I only had my crappy phone camera available. GAH MOTHER COME BACK ALREADY. I was compelled to take photos because you never know when they're going to be painted over again. I don't know who did this work but I'm pretty sure they're locals. There's a skate park near these alley ways so I'll check that out and hopefully find more.

A few people were sort of watching me thinking WTF, I was wearing a vintage Sportscraft blazer, a hugggeeee royal blue/gold/red silk scarf, plain white t-shirt, blue skinny jeans and leopard print flats so I'm sure it was amusing for them to watch me squat and work my way through 2 feet of grass to get a decent shot. It was a gloomy day and I wasn't that happy with how the colours photograped so when the sun comes back out to play, I'll take better pictures.
