Tim Walker's Fantasy World

I was first introduced to fashion photographer Tim Walker's work in a feature section in Vogue a few years back. His airy, unconventionally whimsical pictures were enthralling. His photographs evoke the kind of magical dream world that I sometimes fantasize about where I live in an abandoned manor in the south of france surrounded by aquamarine and violet cats, have decadent tea parties with apple tarts and salt-water taffy sandwiches, and take sunset boat rides in a lake full of swans and wildflowers. Tim Walker's photographs almost make these dreams into a reality.

Welcome!

For the past couple of months I've been debating whether or not I should create a blog. I kept putting it off until that point where I started to doubt myself, wondering if by making this blog I would be criticized by people at school or judged for valuing what many people view as a highly materialistic and superficial hobby.  I believe that fashion is neither a cloak nor a facade, but instead a declaration of one's personal creativity. Through use of colors, textures, patterns, layers and shape in clothing, one can be bold in the art of self expression. I'm no expert, not yet a journalist or photographer, but rather a 17 year old girl who hopes to share this affection for fashion with anyone who happens to stop by. I'm excited to start posting my ideas, favorite things, and creative endeavors on this blog and I hope that you (whomever you may be) enjoy it too.

Until next time,
Amanda
