Autumn Colds

Being sick is like being trapped in limbo. You never feel fully awake or fully asleep. Your weary mind fails to comprehend the most basic tasks; making food preparation or getting dressed seem like impossible challenges. Time loses its meaning. Everything is trapped in a state of stasis. The only passage of time you note is when the pills wear off. Days of the week no longer matter. Your world constricts into the size of your bedroom; your bed the only continent you have a working visa to remain in. Certainly there are galaxies beyond your door, but who has the energy to explore them? If you can't tell from my over-dramatic prose: I've got a bad cold.

Outfit details:
H&M jacket
vintage dress
Tumblr tote bag

Hi Rebecca! I can so relate to your post. Got a flu a few weeks ago and what you've written was exactly what I felt while I was stuck in my room (specifically in my bed) for 5 days. Being weak and sick, I began to realize how important some simple things are, like being able to walk outside and breathe fresh air (which was no big deal for me before bec it's just part of a person's day to day life). Anyway, I hope you'd get well soon.

Oh,did you just have your hair colored? Seems like a brighter hue. So autumnal! =)

The lighting in these pictures is so pretty and the scenery is gorgeous. I'm really loving how adorable your dress is too. The little blue jacket works perfectly with it.

I hope you feel better soon!
