Vol 1: I was so nervous to post these, however, I should be nervous to break necks. To the people who think healthcare professionals shouldn’t embrace or explore their stylish or creative sides, I tell you - TOO FUCKING BAD.
📍We are so much more than our jobs, our professions, our roles… and these photos of these highly iconic pieces of wearable art from the SS26 collection of
@awake_mode embodies that message.
.
📍For many years I preferred to float under the radar and hide behind my clothes, always sticking to what I knew best- all black all the time, but I’m in an era of my life that looks entirely different, and it’s rooted in adventure and reinventing myself without rules or restrictions or shits to give.
.
📍This content represents so much of my growth, and for that I am grateful. I’ve loved
@awake_mode for YEARS, and whether I’m sourcing pieces from resale sites or archival vintage shops, or buying them new (hello afterpay😆), their art has always been a very intentional purchase to me. This was an entirely adventurous style moment where I felt completely free, and that is something I cherish, and the fact that they gifted me some of these pieces from their latest collection- well- that’s an absolute peak life moment.

📍To the professional women who are nervous about expressing their stylish sides, I want to reassure you- PLEASE DO IT, because more of us professional folks need to see it. We can be in all the lanes. And we can pave our own roads.

📍Thank you
@awake_mode @vakirtava - this partnership is a dream come true!
