DURING THE GOLDEN HOUR







Button Up - Thrifted | Denim Shorts - F21 | Sandals - JustFab


CAN WE JUST THANK GOD FOR SELF-TIMERS. YES. THANK YOU.

If you couldn't tell, self timers are my bae right now. Speaking of bae, I just found out what it stands for earlier this year [0_o]. Yeah, I'm a little slow with these things, but I'm working on it. 

From my last post you know I'm on a thrifting craze, mostly for button up shirts but if something comes along that I cant help but buy, then I'll make it happen. I love this button up, even with the Beetle Juice vibes I'm getting from it. Did you notice anything new about the blog??? I gave her a little face-lift and a big upgrade, the upgrade being that it is no longer "www.foreignintentions.blogspot.com", it is now "www.foreignintentions.fashion". I've been waiting for this day for the longest of times, and it has finally come. Some of you may be wondering why I chose ".fashion" instead of ".com" but the reason why is, in truth the inter-webs is running out of ".com's". There was still a ".com" for Foreign Intentions, but my my father explained that in the future there will be different top level domains for different topics, so I just decided to get a jump start on it.  I hope you guys enjoy the little changes I made! Take care xx

UNDER CONSTRUCTION







Top - Thrifted


I'm pretty sure the thrift store is my 5th home. I'm starting to have a new obsession over over-sized button down shirts, but more so from the men's section. There's always awesome finds in the men's section, i.e. this shirt. I don't know, how but their clothing is SO much more comfortable, maybe its because they don't have all this extra stuff on their chest. Since I don't have a boyfriend to steal borrow clothes from I'll just settle with stuff from the men's section. 

But the reason I'm playing with a ruler/ paintbrush is because we're fixing up my room *whoop whoop*. We painted it white, and yeah yeah some people say "but white is so BLAND". My take on it is I cant put a bunch of colors in my room like pillows or artwork and not worry about things clashing. It's like a blank canvas, you can do so much with it. If I do some DIYs I'll be sure to show you how to do them.

This is going to sound so first world problem-y but I've been trying to work on my Instagram feed. If you haven't noticed I don't really have a theme because I'm not that great with keeping up with that. Don't get me wrong I like feed themes and what not but some of them are so unoriginal and it just gets repetitive and bland. Right now its starting to look like a grey theme & to me that's just BLEH (for my feed). I want it to be colourful and full of life and reflect the things I love, especially since I'm an artist & I love all colours. I've had some ideas about it following the seasons, or every row is different (like a rainbow), but we'll see what becomes of it.Comment your Instagram or blog names so I can check them out! Take care xx

JULY PLAYLIST



Welp! Here its is, my July Playlist as promised. I really loved putting this together for you guys, and I think this will become a monthly installment on Foreign Intentions. I figured I'd make it a little different and let you actually be able to listen to it on the blog, that way you don't have to search for it online. My music taste is very, how you say, EVERYWHERE. I like to listen to a variety of styles and I like hearing everyone's different take on a song (which is why there are remixes in this playlist). If you would like to see what other music I like to listen too, feel free to hop on over to Soundcloud and follow me. I hope your summer hearts enjoy this playlist as much as I do! Take care xx

SUMMER DAYZE



Swimsuit - Target 






Shirt dress - Ralph Lauren | Shorts - Nike | Anklet - Foreign Intentions


Salut! That's French for hello if you didn't know. Just because I'm in Florida, where no one really speaks French, doesn't mean I shouldn't use it. I love the French language, its actually one of my classes in school. 

So far, this summer has been a blast of exploration on my part. I've spent 95% of my time at the beach or the pool so far. I cant help it, I'm a beach girl. I'm actually venturing out of my comfort zone and doing things I wouldn't normally do. Ever since I got my camera, I've just started walking around taking pictures (yes, partly for the photography course that I'm currently taking), not caring if I'm alone. Usually I always like to have someone to accompany me to places I've never been before, in fear of a kidnapping of course. Things happen people. But now I just don't care, besides, sometimes its good to do things by yourself. 

I'm kind of having shopping withdrawals because I spent all of my money on my camera, and used the rest on fabric for a collection. Hopefully I'll be okay. I also found a new group called Years & Years, I'm loving their songs like no other. They might make up half of my July playlist that I'll be posting later this month. Keep your eyes peeled! Take care xx
