Dear readership,

wild-life in animal-print for the autumn/winter 2024/2025 season. My choice goes to the leo-print. Check out my style set for the cold days here.

Dear Person,

throughout the passed year I have continuously been confronted with the question why I would not love you. While at first I did not even want to give in to this question stating that the bond that you and I have is the most mandatory and supposed to be the strongest in the world you could think of nearly there are in fact some things I would like to tell you through this way. Not necessarily to make you understand me or make you change your mind or behavior but to just admit that I in fact do not seem to love you. Here is why.

I am supposed to inspire people, be the problem-solver, solution-finder and the person who is there to not let you down. You know that often enough I turned against the whole world to justify you and all your actions. No thanks needed, thank you. Instead I need to deal with your nonsense and the nonsense of people like you. I already start to feel like I am finding myself publishing my memoirs instead of writing solid, stable texts. But I guess it is alright, after all real stories hit different than general set phrases. You think I would not love you? You know what? Let me change my mind and actually say that your intuition was not so wrong at all, at least obviously not. However, if I would not love you I would not care this much. I still bother which means that somehow I do still care. And even hate makes someone stick in your mind. Sometimes I would wish for a little bit more indifference in general. But well, back to you. Are you really not understanding it or do you not want to understand what you did and still do wrong? I mean you accused me for allegedly being unfaithful to my husband just because I was supporting a friend of mine. Like… what the hell? Who would do something like this? This is bottomless!
In fact, you are a person that is really tough to handle, not only for me and I know that I am not the only one who took this step now. Hot and cold at the same time and dangerously provocative. And you consider this to be okay like bond that you have would be the free-ticket to behave badly and thinking you can be forgiven on and on while you cannot stop blaming, accusing and judging. You know that there had been times in my late teens that I prove you wrong in the end and you shyly had to admit it when ahead you had been terrorizing and now in my adult years you obviously fear my authority and capability. However now you aggressively fight against it. But you know what is really the worst sentence you could have ever let out? That you would think that I would treat you as badly in my adult years as you treated others around you. I would rather kill myself than becoming like you. And I dare you to prove me wrong and as self-satisfied I might sound here I do not mean it to tease you but to set healthy boundaries and make points clear.

Person, you always claim that you also have feelings, that you get hurt from our behavior and that we would be ungrateful. One question: when have you ever cared for our needs and desires? Our whole life you always yelled at us, criticized us justifying your actions with the world allegedly being so bad and criticizing and that you would just like to protect us from this oh so bad world while you have just built your not-present self-confidence by destroying ours. This is getting too much.

Person, I come to the conclusion that as much as I wished to I could never not love you but I would rather prefer to keep my door shut in front of you for the sake of living and loving than being an endless pawn to your life full of mistakes and regret. I would have needed your support. Instead, all I got was blame, hate and mistrust. I hate myself because I grew up under a person like you but I would rather not continue.

Person, I do not know if we will ever get to talk again in this life but unlike you I have the ability to let go and grow. So, fare well. I will be good in my very own way.

“‘Has the leo-print ever been away at all?'”

Trend: Animal-Print

Did the leo-look come back? I wondered noticing many fashionable women as different as they could be performing and impressing in their leo-print-styles. “Has the leo-print ever been away at all?”, I was replied. In fact beyond the leo-print animal-print in general is a total eye-catcher this autumn. No matter if you are wearing cow-, zebra-, snake- or any other animal-print you will impress with your metropolitan safari and wild-life-look. If boldness last year in the sign of self-determination here has been a big theme last year this year it is going top be loud as you may roar with your style. Personally, I love to wear the leo-look out of two reasons:

1. My husband finds this print very attractive on me,
2. I, myself, feel especially stylish and fashionable adding some leo-print to my (everyday-life) looks. Alternatively I spice them up with snake.

Either way the wild-life animal-print is a real eye-catcher always boosting your looks everywhere, anytime for everyone.
