From tumblr blogging to Substack
A fact about myself that a very few people have the pleasure of knowing is when I was 13/14 I started a tumblr blog and I would post my outfits and wrote short bios on what inspired me to put them together. Taylor Swift lyrics and denim mini skirts with buttons down the front were a frequent feature.
What was the name of this blog you might wonder, well it went through a couple of iterations. First was Kako Depiction, which was inspired by my love of chocolate and style, and the second was Isa and Bella, because it felt more “grown up” and “modern” to 14 year old me.
One day I need to spend an afternoon at my parents house cringing at the family computer looking at all these old photos. But it’s so nice spending time reflecting on how much you’ve grown, in personal style and also just in life. Although I still never got over leaving my clothes around the whole house, there’s still time though right?
And now fast forward to 2024 - I still love sharing my outfits but I’ve swapped the denim skirts for well fitting jeans and graphics tees for the plain white Uniqlo T-shirt. The Taylor Swift lyrics are still around though.
That is all from me for now, thank you for listening to a bit of my lore. I would love to share some more (the rhyming was not on purpose).
