PINEAPPLE EXPRESSION

This soft Pineapple printed dress was given to me by one of my sweetest friends recently. Though initially I didn’t see it as an item I would pick out for myself after trying it on (and admittedly intentionally ripping it a bit) I fell in love with it. I felt a light happiness all day that I believe is in connection to the vitalizing energy of the color yellow. The cute simple pineapple design I realized also appealed to my inner child as every time I caught my reflection it brought a smile to my face. When pondering my mood for this Alien Aesthetic I also felt my inner child taking the reigns here. She kept saying I should just make it fun and about Pineapples. Initially I was resistant to my inner voice thinking that Pineapples weren’t substantial of a topic enough to dedicate a whole blog entry to. I wanted to write something with meaning and that held soul resonance for me. Still, my inner child protested that we just do pineapples. I made myself laugh imagining doing a post about the movie “Pineapple Express” then finally I came to the realization that I was putting too much pressure on my creative expression if I was unwilling to create if I didn’t perceive the outcome was profound in some way. Artistic expression is still artistic expression whether or not there are layers of symbolic meaning. As a being who puts a lot of focus into my messages of love that I want to share with the world this was a refreshing reminder to myself. Sometimes it’s okay to create without purpose. Sometimes it’s okay to create something simply to to honor the silliness of your inner child. So, this episode of Alien Aesthetic is dedicated to my inner child and the brilliant light she has forever held within, even in moments she didn’t know it was there. In the end I feel that this post found meaning after all. This photo sequence is about nothing... and everything.

ELECTRIC FEELS

Deep sea sensitivity will be the strength that defines me as I continue to defy gravity

Though purple is one of my favorite colors and one I use the most frequently to express myself it has never been the first to come to mind when trying to decide what color I’m going to change my hair to next. I was surprised though I shouldn’t have been to realize once I finished my hair that it truly felt like a statement of power. It’s very Kismet Electra. When I put on my this glittery black dress this morning I felt it was the perfect eye catching piece to go with my new look. The X-men are the only modern super heroes that I really enjoyed growing up. No surprises that Storm was my favorite. I really enjoyed M. Night Shyamalan’s movies Split and Glass. Both movies are deeply layered in meaning. I resonated with them both touching deeply on the fact that “ordinary” individuals dismissed by society could be extraordinarily larger than life. I found myself feeling so stellar in this electric look I wanted to create a photo sequence of what it would be like if I were to live this life as a being with super powers, and since I don’t know much about the world of superheroes I thought I’d create one of my own... one full of electric feels.

Guardians of the light keep me in plain sight as I break my way through barriers and bring our visions to life

Wild Woman with an animalistic soul, you call it ubsurd, I say it’s what makes me whole.

Through the fire I rose with the lightness of a feather, a butterfly with the cry of the Phoenix

Fortune is in my hands and I offer up my heart and surrender to the universal plan

A spirit that can’t be contained, a wildness that can’t be tamed, one look in these honey fire eyes and life won’t be the same.

Winding my way through Destiny’s gates, I’ve got the keys to fulfillment, meet me at the corner of trust and 888.

Let me show you your future like I’ve been there before

Universal mind in the body of a universal woman, circling your thoughts like the rings of Saturn

1. The sweet spot between my honey brown eyes 2. The Heart Center, epicenter 3. The honey pot between my thighs... Doorways to the infinite

WAISTED YOUTH

I felt incredibly powerful in this look. It wasn’t so much about the outfit itself but the adornments around my middle that made me feel incredibly strong in my being. My Angel winged belt, coined dance shawl and custom gold heart belt had me feeling like a luminous gold Sun. I have a deep love for making my own belts, they’re by far one of my favorite accessories. As I’ve grown in wisdom I’ve made connections with my love for them to my Earth spirituality.

To sum it up as quickly as possible the Sun Dance way was a way of walking in peace and divine love upon the Earth that united forty four of the great native tribes. The men who walked the Sun Dance Way carried shields with them that held personal emblems, their names, revealed their sacred gifts, totem animals and anything else was relevant to know immediately upon meeting an individual. This way a whole story could be told about someone’s soul as soon as they met. It was beautiful beyond words. Rather than carrying shields the women who walked the sun dance way would wear belts that carried their soul stories. It makes complete sense that the feminine would wear her most powerful talisman around her waist because the Sacral/ Solar Plexus Chakras are incredibly powerful centers of creation for the feminine and thus incredibly sensitive. The belts that I wear and create for myself I definitely feel tell a special portion of my souls story. My belts are often heavy with crystals, charms and anything else that just make me feel like Kismet. I feel so myself, so powerful when I’m in them, especially in the ones that are completely created by my own hands. I think one of the most beautiful gifts of personal style is to be able to paint a picture of your soul on the outside. This is why I put so much intention into adorning myself every day.

For anyone who reads this today I invite you to create something reflective of your soul to wear outside for the world to see!

With love, Kismet
