I came back to read the full intro post as the last time I only checked the photos. You do wear your heart on the sleeve and this community is richer for it, and for your presence. Your outfit - it is a bigger delight the more I look at it.
Your devotion to wearing the pieces which have a story is so moving. It's a whole new meaning to layers in dressing.
I've been thinking a lot about colours lately and this is a perfect example of the perfect match - when the person wears the right colour my heart sings. I don't know why some colours work on some people, but I know my gut reaction to the right thing. A few days ago I was having a tea at a small bakery shop, when the lady walked in. I immediately notice women who have the same soft skin like my late mum's and the same shade of her ginger hair. But that was not all. This lady had a beautiful bright teal coat on and I could not take my eyes off her. Then she sat down, took the coat off to reveal the dark pink jacket and turquoise scarf. I could feel my heart beating faster just looking at all those colours, I was transfixed. Everything was just right for her, on her. All her colours made me feel alive just looking them on her, around her.
That's how I see this colour on you.
And thank you for the wonderful link. There's a whole section there devoted to Inspiring Woman! It's a sort of discovery that makes me wish the day is longer than 24 hours, so I can read it all in one go.
