COZY IN CRIMSON CASHMERE

Having my coffee one morning while  flipping through Instagram ...I came across the page of Lindavwright.  Seeing photos of a poised and chic woman wearing beautiful scarves on the streets of Paris was eye candy to me, so I began to follow her. After a little more investigating I discovered she had a boutique in Paris France, called Crimson Cashmere; located right in the heart of the Triangle d’or. We were on our way to Paris for summer vacation and staying in that area, so  I had to pay her a visit. After a few more “likes” on her page, I found her on Facebook, Pinterest, then I noticed she was a Texan, and from my hometown Fort Worth!  Yee-Haw...Now I was hooked. I couldn’t wait to meet her and make a connection with a Texan living in Paris. After breakfast, we strolled to the boutique and found Linda. There she was... chic, relaxed and tall!  Linda has incredible style and of course the boutique was charming. I couldn’t resist this beautiful blue Cashmere sweater that made it’s way home with a Texan, who loves Paris.

The shelves were stocked with beautiful colors. I chose this tropical blue cashmere sweater. I thought it would be perfect for our California weather. I'm a fan of the color combo- blue and brown.

BEIGE - UNDERSTATED ELEGANCE

I love the look and feel of wearing a neutral & soft color. Mixing nude colors gives you a certain classy and ladylike look. It can be a bit tricky wearing beige and nude colored outfits. By mixing it with a little color, texture, and throw in an edgy purse and shoes, you'll walk out the door with an understated elegance.. It's classic, sophisticated, and after all... it's  about how you feel while creating your own personal style.

The French women had the right idea when they never left the house without a scarf...

When you think about the many Doors of Opportunities you've walked through, no matter how big or small...you realize your footprint would tell a nice story, and it's never too late to write your story...

Add a fun broach to your coat. Bugs, reptiles, or flowers...they all have a meaning, choose the ones that speak to you.

CHOOSE LOVE IN 2016

Out with the old and in with the new. Starting a new year means new beginnings and pretty much anything is possible if we have an open mind, and open heart. What if we didn't need a "New Year's Eve"  to have a new beginning? We have the ability to have a new beginning everyday of the year. If we can just remember that our thoughts create our reality we'd choose different thoughts more frequently. It takes practice, like anything you want to become good at, and the more you do it...the more often it happen's, and the more Good begins to flow your way. When you open your heart...you lighten your load and true goodness awaits you with open arms.  

I was on my way home from the grocery store when I passed this garage and it gave me such a positive feeling in my heart. I drove home, grabbed my tri-pod and headed back for this photo.  I encourage you to be spontaneous and take photos of anything that makes your heart happy.  I'd love for you to email me a favorite photo that touched your heart. I choose LOVE...what about you?

The next year, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you, as perfect, as unspoiled, as if you had never wasted or misapplied a single moment in all your life. You can turn over a new leaf every hour if you choose.”
