WHAT’S GOING ON AT THE MOMENT

Morning all!

I’ve always wanted to keep this platform as a happy and optimistic place where I try to share nothing else but content to make you have a nice and entertaining time. But, we got to a point where I cannot talk about what’s going on lately since it’s not something that affects only me but the whole world. Yes, I’m going to talk about the Coronavirus or Covid-19 crisis we’re living at the moment all of us, in different ways, but definitely all.

Which is my current situation here in Spain? We’re all locked down at our houses. We can’t go out other than to buy food, go to the hospital, work, or any other main necessities that must be justified if the police see you walking or driving around. This is going to be like this for at least the next 15 days. We all know (since we’re not the only country in this situation) that this is not how we would like to spend the upcoming weeks but, as many have said “The earlier we stop the earlier we’ll continue”, and that’s so true.

Other than all the financial crisis and the repercussions on the economy, we have to stay positive and be optimistic about it. This is for the best. We have to take care of those who need it the most and protect them, and the only thing we’ve been asked for is to stay home. It’s really not that difficult. How many times we’ve said, “There’s no better place than home”? So there you have it. Now we have loads of time to do all the things we wanted/needed to do at home but never could because we were to busy. There are no excuses now.

It’s time to watch all those films and TV series you have saved in your Netflix list, read all the books that have been in the shelf for so long waiting to be read, clean and organise the house, pamper yourself, get creative, and many more things. I know that this was an unexpected and huge change in our lives, but the best we can do is get used and make the most out of it.

From now on I’ll be sharing a lot of “homemade” content, since that’s the only place I can shoot at. Of course, if you see any outdoor shot content will be the one I’ve been shooting the previous weeks. Also, I’ll keep my social platforms (blog and Instagram) as the happy and inspiring places I’ve always wanted them to be, giving you entertainment and something to read when you don’t know what to do.

How’s the situation in your country? Any ideas of what to do at home? Definitely tell me so in the comments down below and I’ll be glad to read!

Love, lipstick and stay safe ❤

  1. Hi love! I am sending you best wishes from NYC. We are currently experiencing the same but don’t have a full lock down. However, I believe we will be getting there soon. I agree with everything you said 100%. Shooting content will be from home and I was thinking of writing a similar blog post to address the topic so thanks for sharing!

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts Mariann! I really do think that many more countries will join the full lockdown but maybe within a few days, I guess we’ll see. And yes, home content will be so popular during the upcoming weeks!

      Take care dear!

  2. I’m a student at the University of Antwerp. Our professors try to record online classes, so we still meet with the educational curriculum. Today we received a mail, which tol us that these online classes will be our standard study method until the end of May! We won’t see our fellow student again until then… Such a weird vibe.

    Lots of love,

      Girl, I know how that feels. I’m at uni too and all the projects and subjects are still going on online. But I know that it all will be so weird since we won’t see anybody (face to face) until so many weeks!

      Take care babe!

      I use a Nikon D5300 and I usually shot with a 18mm or 35mm lens depending if I’m shooting outfits or details. Hope it helps and stay safe girl!
