Inspiration-overload


These days I’m full of ideas. I don’t know if  it’s London, the people I’m meeting out here, things I’m reading and learning or just me. But the fact is that ideas are the fuel of life. Without ideas, inspiration and creativity, well, I don’t know what that would be like but I wouldn’t want to be there.

Yesterday evening I was invited to a screening of the documentary about the life of Diana Vreeland. She was the fashion editor of Harper’s Bazaar and editor of Vogue for many many years. And wow, this woman had some ideas. She was the personalisation of ideas, always looking ahead of the future and fighting for what she believed in. I guess, we all want to be like that in some way. I personally really enjoyed some of the quotes of her that appeared in the movie. They really made me think of what it is that I want and how I can get there.

“Exaggeration is my only reality.”

"You gotta have style.  It helps you get up in the morning.  It's a way of life.  Without it you're nobody.  And I'm not talking about a lot of clothes"

"I'm terrible on facts.  But I always have an idea.  If you have an idea, you're well ahead"

“Never fear being vulgar, just boring”

Being average might seem okay for a lot of us. I’m also guilty of settling with being average sometimes. But the truth is, you have to be the best version of yourself you can ever be. It doesn’t matter what you do, do it with pride, elegance and conviction.

So go out and strive for nothing less than perfection!
