Hello!

My endless interest and love for fashion had lead me to open this blog. The name of my blog was inspired by a character from a novel i read. The story is set in the 30's in the Southern United States, it is about Celie, a black woman who was a victim of patriarchy, racism and sexism. Struggling through hardships and a voiceless existence, she consoled herself by engaging in her hobby of handiworks which resulted in creating a perfect pair of pants one day. The pants not only showed her skill but also signified freedom as it was a more comfortable form of clothing than dresses. Eventually Celie went on to open an enterprise making pants which was named folkspants. Unbound and liberated, she learnt to embrace life with a new outlook. The name and her story fascinated me so I chose the name. I'm also a student majoring in english, torn between the decision of pursuing my subject or entering the fashion industry. Anyhow i'd be posting and sharing just about anything of my interests in this blog, but mostly of my take in fashion and personal style. 

Todays pictures have been taken on the terrace. I guess I'd have to go out a lot more to take pictures at prettier places as my neighborhood is just a jungle of buildings. My outfit is not exactly what I had in mind but my photographer friend had come earlier than expected so I had to make do of what I could come up with. Wearing mum's sweater, tailored pants and wedge booties whose time has come to part with. I shall end my first post with this. Until next time.
