we don’t talk enough about how much healing feels like losing at times.
people, things, old habits, comforts.
but it’s just an intuitive way of letting go of what no longer serves you. an intimate process that you just have to trust. loosing your mind but finding your soul.
that’s the kind of loosing I hope for you ✨

how long have you been following me?
I feel like a reintroduction is neccassary…hey hey! my name is Kondja I've been “blogging” on this platform for about 8 years now, after moving to Belgrade and sharing a glimpse of my life there. I was also documenting the evolution of my personal fashion style and cute little travels through Europe. I became a mama and that journey became a natural extension of the kind of content I shared.
after a brief interaction with a case of #ppd and trying to figure out my new body and the mental and physical load of motherhood (especially in the 1st year) I continued to share parts of my life. I felt the need to share more long form content, where I actually give context and share a more vulnerable side of me so I decided to start a blog.
imposter syndrome kept creeping up and I didn’t actually launch the blog “heyprettyface” until early 2020 when I told fear and that internal self-doubting voice to kiss my ass.
heyprettyface is a fashion lifestyle blog that focuses on personal styling, how to’s and a lot of personal growth and healing content. it’s my little corner of the internet where I lay it bare because I truly believe in “be that person you needed when you were younger” or what you needed when you were going through that thing in life.
in the summer of 2021 my Instagram account got hacked (@_heyprettyface ) and all my years of curating friends, connections and content went bye bye and left me in a real weird space of discouragement and apprehension. on top of so many life changes like moving back to America and choosing to live a very unconventional lifestyle (hello full-time RV travel) I didn’t know how to pick back up. but for the sake of my mental health I started this new IG account and continued to share my “content”.
…continued in comments ❤️
living differently changed the way I shop. I used to build my wishlists around trends, now they’re more focused on what’s missing in my wardrobe and how to extend my wardrobe range.
a little more intention, a little more ease, a lot more personality.

unpopular opinion: let’s stop the whole “dress for the person you’re becoming” narrative and just dress for the woman you already are.
there’s real gratitude in honoring the you right now— and your closet should reflect that.
new post is up and it’s giving practical tips on how to make that shift. 🆕 link in bio |

started the week a year older!
to be loved, to be valued, to be seen.
to feel it in your bones you are right where you’re supposed to be.
body and soul aligned… there’s nothing sweeter than this.
to all who thought of me that day… wishing the same for you ✨
