I say them anyway // Marie Claire January 2014

I keep on wondering what is exact the unique attitude this girl is setting in this editorial. And again I'm not guessing about the clothes, but about the atmosphere and the ambiance I'm intrigued by.

I think it's the high class she shows in combination with the loose style. She can be a business woman. But a leading lady who surfs, and make fun with her kids (for instance). She is the funny 'guy' at a party. But she can suit stiletto's also.

I was also thinking about what she would have been looked like when she was a teenager. Or even younger. And I've found some Sally Mann photography who I think can represent her attitude.

The work of Sally Mann makes commotion. Some people think it has something wrong in it because of young kids being naked in the photos. I'm still not 100% sure honestly, but my feeling is that it is just some 'camping grown up' stuff. Arty pics with permission of their parents.

Sometimes it's hard to find the words to say.
I'll go ahead and say them anyway.

Where you gonna sleep tonight?

 This editorial in Glamour UK, January 2014 s'called 'It's a day night mash-up'.

I like different fabrics mixup up together, like wearing a soft sweatshirt upon a silk skirt. Cold and warm feelings on your skin, a little sensation.

But maybe this is secretley also about some wild weekend adventure. Like waking up on the couch of someone you don't even know their name of. Or waking up with the clothes of a last night party, mixed up with a shirt of someone unknown. Because it was getting cold outside while you were waiting outside the pub for some stranger to give you a lift on the backseat of his bike to the next stop.

That's why I also putted some couches in this story.

And you're singing the song thinking this is the life.
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size.
Where you gonna go, where you gonna go.
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

Lyrics: Amy Macdonald: This is the life

They smelled of moss in your hand // Muse #36

You wish that life is gentle, kind and clear to your mind. But sometimes you just can't avoid what life includes too. It has fear, wilderness, challenges, survivals. And sometimes you just can't sit down, you have to struggle and fight. Not against yourself but for yourself. And after that it will be calm for you again. A little different story than you are used to from me. But life has so many sides. Just like characters. I believe in variety, and characters with countless traits. I guess that is what this story is for me about.

'We need the tonic of wildness...At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.' 

Quote: Henry David Thoreau

'Once there were brook trout in the streams in the mountains. You could see them standing in the amber current where the white edges of their fins wimpled softly in the flow. They smelled of moss in your hand. Polished and muscular and torsional. On their backs were vermiculate patterns that were maps of the world in its becoming. Maps and mazes. Of a thing which could not be put back. Not be made right again. In the deep glens where they lived all things were older than man and they hummed of mystery.'

Quote: Cormac McCarthy
