Life

Memories

You left me a while ago,

Living in darkness for so long,

Do I realise

My conscience still lingers to your touch

Those kisses and hugs still reside in my heart

Those silly conversations about everything & anything

From the moon and the back

From eternity and beyond

Everything ingrained deep in my mind

Now, I live with the memories

Touching my soul, as no one can

Shireen

One Day

We will meet one day

Under the starry light

In a field full of blooming wildflowers

Surrounded by legends and fairies

Me, in a fiery gown

You, in a crisp tuxedo

Both yearn to be found by each other

Eyes wandering surreptitiously in the crowd

To get just a glimpse, maybe

Or maybe to touch and feel that you’re real and alive

To feel the essence of your skin

Will it be warm?

Like sultry winter sunlight

Will it be cold?

Like summery ice

Though it deems unattainable

Feels like the end of the world

In between the impossibles

We will find each other one day

Top 5 Tips to Become a Sustainable Fashion Influencer

Are you one of those people who (before buying) always ask about clothes' material, behind the story of production, total cost, the environmental impact and things like that? Also, it irks you whenever someone around you buys their clothes from fast fashion brands, even after you reason with them never to do that. Or you find yourself sticking to your phone or laptop/ desktop or tab surfing on the internet or social media about the fashion industry and its impact on the environment and wanting to blame every possible person responsible for it. If you answer yes, to any of the things mentioned, then my friend, you are a sustainable fashion influencer without knowing it! And if these things intrigue you to become one, read further to know better.

If you are adamant about making this world a better place or at least want to improve your surroundings or educate people around you, follow these steps to make your dream come true:

Make yourself a BRAND: We all have seen that people often listen to those who have some power or authority over others. And the best way to gain that power is to make yourself a BRAND. You might be thinking, how can you do that? Well, nothing is impossible in today's world. Start making a page that represents you or your idea vividly on a popular social media platform and pour the river of your knowledge over there. One tip here, please don't preach! 

Follow other sustainable fashion influencers: Following someone from your niche will help identify what they are doing to make the world more conscious, how they are doing it, whether people are actually following what they do, or their method of persuasion etc. It might sound strange now, but following this method will provide intricate details about how you can create what you are willing to start. 

Start taking appealing visuals: We all know what people see when they visit social profiles, creative visuals, duh! It does not matter whether you are an amateur. If your photos tell a compelling story, people will be more than generous to give you a thumbs up. Besides, there are a lot of editing apps available, no matter whether you use Android or iOS, that can make the dullest moment turn into dazzling visuals. Or take some inspiration from Instagram, TikTok or Pinterest, where you can see a lot of sustainable fashion influencers and their distinct approaches to teaching people about it.

Start engaging with your followers, and don't focus on the number (just yet!): Engagement with your followers is the key element of knowing people better. It will give you an idea of how your followers deal with the problem, their method of solutions, and different unidentified thoughts for your next post. Moreover, engagement with your followers will help the algorithm to reach the right audience.

Collaboration with other sustainable fashion influencers: We all know a great number of sustainable fashion influencers are out there using the same platform but have more followers than you. The reasons for their mass followers could be they have started it early, or they provide some mind-blowing content that no one could resist (not even you!). In such a case, try to reach them and ask for collaboration. You could do some fun interviews, share some stories, share your journeys, experiences with sustainable fashion brands, etc. There are an uncountable number of ideas present which you can take inspiration from. Now, all you have to do is grab a suitable idea as per your profile and give them your magical touch.

Furthermore, you must keep your searching & reading mode always ON. Be up-to-date with the news on fashion, environment, sustainability and what other brands are doing to make it better. Additionally, you can learn more about the clothing industry to gain comprehensive knowledge about their construction, transportation, transparency, supply chain and so on. 

Besides, it's neither new nor old to be a sustainable fashion influencer, but once you are into it, you'll love to be a part of a movement that intends to make this world a better place.

Moreover, if you are more into the beauty field, where you talk and walk sustainable makeup, you can follow the above tips to become a sustainable makeup influencer.

Destinations

Life is never just for everyone, We all suffer it differently, And for a little amount of time, We find solace in the support others provide to us, We start to think that maybe we are all same, In suffering, bearing, and all the torturous efforts of life, But that's never the case, Indeed, we all endure, But everyone has their own set of sufferings, We might be sailing on the same boat, But our destinations are indeed different...

Life, as we know it, is an unresolved

mystery,

An unnerving puzzle,

We spend our lives unravelling it,

But still unable to get the gist of it,

Though sometimes, at some stage,

We may think that everything is under our control,

Everything feels calm, collected and

content,

But that's the moment when life shows its true face,

It is the point when life throws its dice and turns everything upside down,

In a matter of moments, we lose everything,

Now, everything becomes disorganised, disgruntled, and dishevelled,

Things started to change, turning into

incomprehensible circumstances,

And with time, we do get to understand the mystery,

Not much, but enough to survive while alive,

For how long? No one knows,

All we know is that it's better to try live as much as we can,

Until we are here,

Until we all turn into ash & bone, buried deep down into the mysteries of what life is.

If only, darling. If only... *exasperated sigh*

If I had a dollar for every fictional character I caught feelings for...I could afford the therapy I obviously need

If I could fly,

I would fly to the mountains,

To taste the charm of peace and serenity,

To know how people feel,

When they are climbing to the highest point,

I heard that the mountains sing,

I would love to listen to those songs,

And dance in tranquillity ❤️
