This look was posted nearly 3 years ago back when no one was wearing beige and brown tones together and not even Céline had posted one of their most iconic collections. I worked incessantly creating outfit collages (back in the old Polyvore days) experimenting with all types of neutral shades and creating little 'paintings‘ out of these combinations and compositions. This doesn’t come out of the blue, as a painter and architect 20 years back the best architecture students were asking me to paint their projects each semester, as they liked how I painted and combined colors. I have experience and formal education regarding my understanding of colors under my belt. I worked and posted to the point of saturation these ideas, until a couple of big influencers decided that they would make it theirs #neutralstyle. But what entitles them to take advantage that my posts are not seen by many. Are they up for the grand? What kind of person repeatedly copies someone else‘s whole body of work, when it took me often whole mornings or whole months to come up with these tones together? Some of you will see this so normal now, but back in the day everyone just wore black, white, and grey. Some of you messaged me telling me you followed me for my color combos, some decided to unfollow me and support these people who just recently started to post outfits in an aesthetic that took me years to find. If you believe in justice, stop supporting these women. (We all know who They are). .
