Hi, I'm Nicole. :) I'm 13 year old homeschooled girl, who usually only dresses up when I go to the ~big city~ (if you consider Portland to be big). I do get bored and experiment with different outfits when I'm at home, though. Then I persuade my little sister to take pictures, because I have a crappy little digital camera and the timer just doesn't do it for me. It would've been nice to have inherited my dad's photography gene. But I'm pretty sure it doesn't work like that.
While I'm not really one for abstract clothes, I don't totally rule them out. If I like something, I wear it...Also, I'm somewhat influenced by trends, but I try not to let them take control of my style.
I'm completely new to the blogging world. The closest I've ever come to blogging is probably writing about how my back hurts when I slouch in my computer chair on Tumblr. City of the Fireflies was part created to help me learn to write consistently, part just for a place to keep my outfits for future reference, and part moodboard. I've been following a few fashion blogs for some time now and I just felt like I should make one of my own.
(Oh, and before I get too into this I'd like to warn whoever's reading that I'm a Queen fan, hence the March Of The Black Queen lyrics - "Forget your singalongs and your lullabies; Surrender to the city of the fireflies")
That's pretty much it.
