And I couldn't be happier.
You left me stained with black soot. Since I touched your heart, its mess invaded my bones. Defiled my frame with smears of you. So I scrubbed the rotten skin till it bled red. Soaked myself in oils and prayed you disappeared. Your scars still remained, etched into my flesh as marks I never desired.
In desperation, I stepped into a storm to drown. Grey fog enclosed my being. The deluge of cold pools came pouring down. Drenched in clear rain but frozen in heat. I crawled out in white and blue, not a spot left of you.

I think I am finally clean.

What are your favourite colour combos?
I enjoy pairing white and blue together. It's clean.
They are subtle lovers, hidden in plain sight. It calms me to see them together. While I know I will return to black, I pick up these tones when I need to find peace. Black is beautiful but harsh in its temptations. Hence why I feel it works best alone.
In contrast, the white and blue combination entices with simple charm. Pairing Modressty's Raisyaa Denim and Mumtaz Collections' Snow White Shawl was inevitable. The amalgamation does not beg to be seen, but it will be remembered.
Hence why Hey Bash's aesthetics lean to the cooler tones. Go figure.
Love this outfit, Bash. I agree with you that whites and blues look great together - it's such a calming combination. I love black and white, or grey and blue, they're both so simple and clean.
ReplyDeleteThis is a striking outfit, but as you say, it's not in your face, but rather, is very calming. I love the descriptions at the beginning of these post by the way; you're an excellent writer!

Your outfit is amazing! The pieces all work so nicely together. I especially love the jeggings under the denim. I really love blue and white together, I agree, they are clean colours. For me I think it is because they remind me of a really cold, brisk winter day. For whatever reason I find those days really clean and pure, so the colours I associate with those days also seem pure and fresh. It's interesting how we perceive colours!

I agree that the pairing is clean and pristine, but these colors don't really suit me.

Pastel blue is so beautiful and calming. It reminds me of sky and freedom. Black & white is my ultimate favorite color, I feel like a starry night in it.
