Shabby Chic

You do what you do. You love your job or not love your job. Moments of tranquillity come and go. Let's say that whatever happens in your day happens. You get home. What do you do? Put on your most fav comfort clothes? Hangn clothes. I started to think about these things this evening. Agree or not agree, but I am a smoker. I don my favouites: Blue Life sweat pants, ca va de soi cashmere sweater that I accidentally ruined (it's May 20-still wearing cashmere), Koolaburra Heart & Soul boots, & my DDP khaki long trench. A picture of beauty! Grab my glass of vino and head to the sunroom to watch the rain and well have a cigarette. I suddenly feel at peace with an old friend. This trench is like an old friend. It is amazing when you buy something so perfect for yourself, the piece almost speaks to you. It says, ''see, you know who you are. You are great. You are completely comfortable in yourself, your body''. These pieces make you smile, they say welcome home. Shopping is not such a bad thing. Let it guide you to yourself. You will not become a shopaholic. You will know exactly who you are and what you want after a few pieces. My DDP Trech does this for me every time I zip up it's long zipper. Agree? How do you feel about this?

Cheers,
Tammy

  2. Yes, it's everything. Right. I hope all women know and/or realize this.
