LOOK OF THE DAY "NEON"












I have to admit that one of my least favorite things about Autumn and Winter (apart from the freezing cold of course), its the fact that it gets dark really early, making it very difficult to take descent outfit pictures outdoors and the only option is to take them indoors, which often means really bad light/pictures.

I was only able to shoot past 8pm last night and I tried my best to get the best light I could, unfortunately the pictures didn't turn out as good as I would have wanted them to, but I did my best so here is what I wore yesterday.

P.S- I still think its hilarious that people sometimes are SO INDISCREET and literally stop and stare whenever you are wearing something that is slightly out of the "conventional".

Traducción:

Juro que este post no es para quejarme en lo absoluto, pero el hecho de que vivo en Holanda y el Otoño e Invierno están a la vuelta de la esquina, hace dificilísimo el tomar fotos para el blog en la semana.

Cada dia oscurece mas temprano y como yo no soy fan de tomar fotos con flash, tengo que conformarme con tomar fotos con luz artificial y no me gusta para nada pero en fin, es mejor que nada ¿no?

Andy

Pants: H&M
Neon tee: River Island
Coat: Monki


I leave you with a song I have been obsessing over for the past few days...♡

Totally agree on weird looks. I especially get annoyed when I eat somewhere in a restourant or a caffee and people just sit there and stare..
But on the other hand, it's nice to stand out)

love love love it!!! I adore how you paired those givenchy inspired pants with the vibrant top an ultra cool necklace.

As far as the staring people go, I think deep down they all just wish they had the guts to wear something to stand out a little. It's easier to go with the flow. You look great tho and they're just jealous :)

I understand what you mean by saying people often look at you funny for being dress in unusual ways...

Not very long ago I was in Rotterdam and people just stared at me for wearing clothing they didn't understand since it was 'unconventional'. And here I thought they would be more open-minded than in my tiny city.
I know exactly what you mean!!!

I will always keep on wearing whatever I like, despite the staring people! :)

I have to say I'm not always a fan of the big "collar" style necklaces but I really like this one. I think the fringe keeps it light and fresh without being too granny. :)

michelle_ said...

a little bit of neon goes a looonnggg way Andy :)
i hate it when it goes really cloudy and dark outside too.. i dont have winter, but the rainy season is in (which also prevents me from taking outdoor shots!)..

for indoor shots, I usually like plain walls or wear an outfit that sorta goes with the furniture. lol.. a tripod and a remote control ARE very helpful as you can use lower shutter speeds so that the pictures wont come out grainy due to the high ISO. and I believe your f/1.4 lens is amazing in low light situations too :)

sorry for rambling alot in your comment feed Andy. I just want to help out :D

Hilarious I just was listening to that Bruno Mars song on my way to work I like it. I love this outfit it looks like something I would put on if I had somewhere to go. LOL I wear sweats most of the time, but that pink is the same pink on my skull sweater it stands out and I love it. I guess I don't care if strangers stare everytime I walk through the fashion district all the mexicans stare at me I know it sounds bad, but literally they just stare at me so now I'm used to it. It doesn't matter if I'm dressed up or not they still stare.

It's okay love, I live right in the middle of the not-so-fashionable prairies in Canada so there's just a bunch of rednecks around here that are like "WHAT are you wearing" whenever I go out. I don't care though - the only person who your outfit should matter to is YOU!

Love the look as always Andy.
