Don't Let it be Too Late

"It's been a very melancholy year. Especially recently. Trying to understand all of it. Trying to understand why. There's a void in my heart. Pain isn't new. And it's the usual for many. What can we do? What is there to do. We're all caught up in our own lives and we're selfish to ignore all those in pain. Until it hits us. But then it's too late. Don't let it be too late." -LILI V

In memory of our angels. Never forgotten.

Study Yourself

I've been taking photos ever since I can remember. I love styling my photos and editing them. My editing process however is mainly just about lighting that's usually all I ever edit in my photos. My old blog i used to edit my photos with a lot of light leaks and flares. As much as I love those type of edits I also love the rawness of a photo. I'm trying so hard to find that piece of creativity I had when I was younger and started all this photo taking because so much has changed since then, but I am trying to get it back. I'm taking my time to study myself and my creativity.

Love All. Love always.

Tonight's Magic

"There's this place in my mind,in my heart,in my soul, that holds onto the magic I believed in as a child. It's so distant at times but it's there. Sometimes it's distant because everyday life as an adult pushes me so far away from it. But today as I was driving I got lost in a neighborhood and it was night time so it was super dark. I let myself just drive through the labyrinth of houses not knowing where I was going. I was playing music and I just let myself drift away. I was alone driving in the dark to no destination. In that moment I felt like everything was frozen except for me. I started to feel that magic you feel as a kid. That true magic. That Nothing is for certain. Anything is seriously possible. Being alone in your imagination is amazing. Maybe I'm just stuck in a far away dream. I don't know. We don't really know where we are going exactly. We just go. As children we believe in impossibles and we should continue to believe in them as we age."

Love All. Love Always. 

I took this photo a few years ago there was a large migration of crows sorrounding the city and I just loved the way they looked flying everywhere so freely. So dark. So mysterious. So beautiful.

Dreaming in May

SUNDAY:

Can you believe it? The first week of may is pretty much gone! 

I have spent the morning day dreaming of new dreams or possible dreams I'd like to make a reality. Of course like the name of my blog. Fantasies into Reality. 

It's so easy to become lost and it's easy to forget what it is truly you desire in life. 

Sometimes we think that if we settle it will be easier than chasing a dream with a possibility of it never coming true. Don't settle. Don't you ever settle. Keep dreaming! And keep trying to create your dreams into a reality. 

Think of new dreams. It's never too late to stop dreaming. 

It is so worth it to know you tried for your dreams than knowing you never tried at all. Don't leave yourself with a what if? Open yourself to endless possibilities and let yourself dream.

Love All. Love Always.

& Dream.

Happy Bunnies

Got some new cruelty Free items to add to my daily makeup and skincare routine. 

Using cruelty Free products and purchasing from cruelty free brands is helping the beauty industry realize that there is no need for animal testing. 

However, keep in mind that the cruelty free brands are changing day by day so you really have to try and stay informed and learn how to read the labels to be able to spot an authentic cruelty free logo! I don't really want to get into details with this subject but my main advice is to stay informed as much as possible with reliable sources! Be kind to everyone and everything!

I really love all the products I purchased. I have been using them for a while and I keep buying them because they work so well! It's my first time trying the PUR foundation and so far I love it, it blends in perfectly! Also my mascara has Argan oil and many other benefits that help my lashes! I'm just in love with all these products!

Love All. Love Always. Love EVERYTHING!

MAY MERMAIDS

Hey May Mermaids! May is finally here! This is one of my favorite Mermaids in my Valfre Mermaid Planner, I just love the concept of this drawing!

I have been wanting to try Tatcha for a long while now so I finally got my hands on some of it! Skincare is very VERY important and I have always loved taking care of my skin ever since I can remember. So I'm super excited to be able to try Tatcha skincare!

Tatcha is an amazing brand based on Geisha skincare, if you haven't heard of it, I suggest you look it up and learn about how Tatcha was created! Best of all, it is cruelty free and I just love the packaging! So far I love everything about this brand!

It's the first of May and what a lovely day it was! There is so many flowers everywhere, it's a dream!!! Hope you all had a lovely first of the month!

Love all. Love always. -Lili V
