Walking along the beautiful streets of northwest Portland on a warm June day, summer breezes tickling my face, feeling gratitude down to my very toes for the serenity and beauty of the moment!
Finding the calm and peace and beauty of a moment depends largely on physical comfort. If your body feels good, then it's easier for your mind to relax. Knowing the trials and terrible tribulations elsewhere in the world makes me so grateful for the peaceful summer beauty unfolding all over town. My goaI is to find that blissful feeling every day. I make time for soothing personal attentions like exfoliation, moisturizing and choosing clothes that feel delicious. No pinching, no binding, but pulled together and flattering so I can relax and feel good!
This season's looks and fabrics are all about elegant ease. Billowing silk tops paired with the softest, lightest denim. Sheer summer dresses and wideleg linen trousers. Draped neck tanks and light-as-air cardigans. Backless sundresses and loosely coiffed up-do's. The ease of a cut, the hand of a fabric, it all effects the way you feel. The way your body and mind feel is important for health, and for joy. And your joy spreads to those around you!
My wish? Summer bliss and beautiful moments to all of you! (love, DR)
