If I find myself needing to do business this is one of the only things I want to be wearing. Speaking of business…I have been trying to narrow down a hero product for the brand I am starting. This week I went to a manufacturing plant and it was really fun. I learned a lot…it kind of reminded me of the Jelly Belly factory in California…but it wasn’t the Jelly Belly factory. I told the man that was touring me around and we had a good laugh. I wish I could work on my projects more full time…but I have to honor where I am right now in my life…so I work on them when I can.
Don’t forget to laugh this week…because at the end of the day…it makes all the hard things more bearable.
This necklace sparks serious joy…do I personally believe in extraterrestrial life? It doesn’t matter…I will tell you what I do believe in this necklace. Also, this notebook and smart pen….I got this about a week ago and I don’t want to be dramatic…but it’s changed my life. I feel like a part of me that went missing for a longtime just got reclaimed. There is just something about pen to paper that feels right. I type in my notes app all the time…but I feel like things get lost…like they don’t stick in my head. Something about pen to paper…but its recording and saving to the moleskin app in my phone just feels so right. It’s worth it…especially if you love to write.
This dress makes me excited for spring. Even though I feel like where I am living it might never come. Like ever….
It’s been really busy here…I am listing my house and getting it ready to sell. Turns out when you keep putting all the things in your house down in the basement in that one room…you are eventually going to have to face those demons. I have been facing them head on this week. Lot’s of omg I hate myself for keeping this…and not a lot of yoga or meditation happening over here. So many life changes happening right now it can at times feel a bit overwhelming. Hopefully you are doing more yoga and meditation than I am…and you don’t have that one room…but if you do..it’s ok…your ok…it’s going to be ok!
This dress is pretty…I love a backless dress, I am sure I already mentioned this..many times. Oh and reporting back on the bra..I think if you have to wear a bra..it’s an option but what about just not wearing one? Just a thought. Mented has some really great names for their lipgloss colors….Send Nudes, Pink About Me, Berry Me, Mauve Over, and # One Cran. There really is no better play than word play. I kind of want to start a line of lipglosses just so I can name and wear them.
So on my last post I said I was going to share something that I probably shouldn’t…so glad I slept on that one. OMG, I am not sharing that…what is wrong with me?! Whew…I feel like I really just dodge my own personal bullet.
I mean..I guess I could tell you how it popped in my head. I was thinking about the John Mayer interview he did with Kelly Rizzo on her podcast Comfort Food. Which was a really good interview..talking about loss and grief…it’s worth a listen. John Mayer said his personal kink is reliability then it got me thinking what was mine…and I thought it’s probably physical touch….and being around someone who is good for your nervous system..like they are good at regulating their emotions. What is yours? It’s kind of fun to think about.
Also, I can only post a couple times a week here for a bit…I have another project I am working on and I am realizing I have to pick one to really focus on if I want to execute it well…which is hard for me because I get distracted really easy..and I have so many ideas. I am learning the best way to figure things out is to take action and then you know with doing..what works and what to follow.
It’s the last day of January and as they say….it really was a long year…but we made it! Love you more..even though it’s definitely not a competition. This black and white dress is fifty percent off..there aren’t a ton of sizes left but you could probably find it other places on the interweb. I love dresses like this..light, breezy, easy. I like clothes that feel like I am barely wearing anything? You?
I have one rule…you can never have too many black dresses…never! Also, I read something that someone was claiming bows are out of style. I have a thought on this….I really don’t follow trends. I do not care what is in and what is out…all that matters is…do I like it? Do I feel like wearing it? Also, for the record bows never go out of style.
All of these pieces to me are wardrobe staples….timeless….can’t go wrong. I just finished reading a book…the title is so cheesy I can’t even bring myself to say what it was…I just can’t…sorry author of this book but next time do better with the title of your book..ha ha! There were things I agreed with and others things I was like…whatever. One of the things I loved is the author talked about time and how it’s our most valuable asset. Basically know why you do things..have a passionate why and remember time is everything.
Thanks to John Mayer and his Sirius XM channel Life…I just found out Norah Jones is releasing a new album and she has a new song out called Running…it’s great. That means she is most likely going on tour soon….exciting! This would be a good outfit to wear to a Norah Jones concert.
This dress is a dream…..Zimmermann is always coming through with the beautiful dresses. I would style it this way if I were to wear this somewhere. Hope you are having a great Tuesday.
This sweater just sparks joy…the shag, the colors…it’s giving me 70’s bathmat but in a good way. These shoes are ugly cute…if you know you know. The perfect Mom shoe. Happy weekend! Hope you are relaxing and having some fun.
Here is part three of the Mothers Day gift guide. This outfit would be such a great gift. They are pieces that could be worn for years and years and years….ok you get it right? Happy Monday lets get it this week…whatever that looks like for you.
This dress is pretty…and sometimes it’s just fun to wear a pretty dress. Like if you want to feel alive again…ha ha. Speaking of feeling alive again…please go see John Mayers solo tour in the fall. It’s so spectacular, truly…your soul will never be the same. You know what’s waaaaaayyyyy better than fashion…music. If I could go back I would have went to Berklee for music instead of Parsons for fashion design. Live and learn…live and learn.
