Vintage myth - The stitching will fall apart within a week.
I have felt the need this week to change the tone of my blog post as I feel I want to open up to you and tell about me and what I am about. As I sit this Tuesday morning (I know it's one day late, I am sorry my dear reader chums) with a brew in a mug reading 'Nobody knows I'm gay' with a massive rainbow across it, it made me think about myself and who I am, what I've become and how far I have to go. (I will be including fashion news for you all don't worry). As you know, blog posts are personal things to me to express myself and allow you guys to see what my past week has been and this week has been no exception but there's been a lot more learning and realization into myself and that I am 21 not 12. Should I act my age and not my shoe size? I sit and question my place here at University but then realize this is all I've dreamt off and need to make the most of this experience with the people I have met. I question my course, the decisions I have made and I question how much longer I will last and whether I am doing the right things in life. I wonder...
My sexuality has been causing me stop and think many times. I was forced out when I was 13, 8 years ago now and I was delivered into an alien world where people where asking who I liked, what I liked and did I like certain people? I didn't know. How was I supposed to know, I wasn't given a chance to come to terms with who I was, I had been through the denial and thinking the impossible but it was true, I was gay. Not being given time to accept this and the bullying from high school, the feeling of not being wanted and everyone treating you like a piece of chewing gum on there shoes. No one wanted to be around me. Who would? I was irrelevant to them. I wonder...
Now sitting here many years further on I still sit and look at myself, my surroundings and ponder what if I had came out when I was ready? Would it of been different? I don't make a big deal about my sexual orientation as I don't feel a need to as I'm the same as everyone in the world. I don't feel I need to shout it. Let's get equality and complete acceptance in this world. I wonder...
As this now primarily a fashion blog I will include some information on what you guys have come to hear about. This post came about looking at what people where using to carry there university stuff around in and is about the top 5 university bags! As we all fight to carry books, laptop and Ipads around I thought this would be a good opener to the sort of bags that are out there. The top 5 include satchels, rucksacks, the tote bag, the shoulder bag and the athletic bag. My personal favourite as you can tell is the satchel. I am a huge lover of the satchel and feel it deserves the identity is has and stands for today. There are many companies from which you can acquire a satchel from. 'The Cambridge satchel company' and 'Zatchels'. Theyboth are huge and offer a plethora of bags that are present on the high street today. Why the satchel though? It relit back in 2010 when people wanted to able to carry there expensive tech whilst still looking like there from the 1940's and somewhat dated. It's an old school concept that has been brought to the mass market and it very much alive with the likes of sneekers and the shoulder bags. I am a huge lover of the satchel with it's strong box shape and buckles with a reminance of the kickers shoe.You can carry the handle or whack it over your shoulder. Fashionista's of the world. This is the bag for you. Big names have done there fair bit with satchels are now a mainstream item so get on the look out for the next big colour trend that will follow!More information avaliable.
