A Reflection of the Past

Sometimes I feel like I was born in the wrong decade. I have such vivid dreams and ideas that come to life in the most unique ways. These photos are so reminiscent of the past, a time in history that I’ve only seen in movies or documentaries. I used modern day makeup and clothes to create an ode to the past. #proud. I have an old soul, always have, I love the sounds of Anita Baker and Johnnie Taylor, classic movies and old sayings. I’ve always had older friends too; it’s like I just gravitated towards, mature and wise individuals to keep me outta trouble. It’s something about those days, that make make me wonder, who I would’ve been or what I would’ve become. I know one thang, I would’ve been a FORCE to be reckoned with…Sometimes I wish I could’ve gotten a glimpse of what it felt like to be there.
