Feeling 16 Again

Raquel Paiva April 17, 2015

When I wore this outfit and looked at myself in the mirror I felt 16 again. Funny thing is that when I was that age I was not wearing anything like that. Leather jackets and beanies don't match with the weather of Brazil at all, but something about this look made me feel like a teenager. 


Quando eu vesti essa roupa e me olhei no espelho me senti com 16 anos novamente. O engraçado é que quando eu tinha essa idade eu não estava usando nada parecido. Jaquetas de couro e beanies não combinam muito com o clima do Brasil. Mas algo sobre esse look me fez sentir adolescente.

Maybe this feeling came from the popping red color of the beanie, I usually wear a basic black one. Or it could have been the silly "Panda" written with "Prada" font on my shirt. Perhaps I was feeling like my beloved "teenagehood" idol: Avril Lavigne. 


Talvez esse sentimento veio da cor vermelha da minha beanie, eu geralmente uso uma pretinha basica. Ou do "Panda" escrito com fonte "Prada" na minha regata. Talvez eu estava apenas me sentindo como minha amada idolo durante minha adolescência: Avril Lavigne.

And that is one of my favorite things about fashion: the possibility to go back in time and to remember old memories through a piece of clothing, or just a style. I alway heard my aunt saying that she was too old to wear certain things. But I believe that with a good dose of common sense, everyone should take the chance to wear something that makes us feel younger sometimes.


E essa é uma das minhas coisas favoritas sobre moda: a possibilidade de voltar no tempo e lembrar memórias através de uma peça de roupa, ou apenas um estilo per si. Sempre ouvi minha tia dizer que ela estava velha demais para usar certas coisas. Porem eu acredito que com uma boa dose de bom senso, todos devemos ter a oportunidade de vestir algo que nos faz sentir mais jovens de vem em quando.
