This outfit was inspired by this little black number from Swell. There a million and one ways to style up a simple black dress, which is what makes them a great staple for your closet. I'm excited to have a long sleeve one for this winter. It will be so cute with thick leggings, knee high socks, boots and a jacket. (already planning...)
I feel like Ive been processing a whole lot during this Mercury Retrograde. Alot of going within. Seeing what Ive been shedding over the past few months. Thinking and dreaming about the future. Feeling lots of wonderful highs, and lows. Ive been shifting and changing things on the homefront alot to make our space feel more content and at ease. De-cluttering, which feels like it might take a lifetime. But one little corner of life at a time, its happening. And it feels so good each step of the way.
I had a major crash the day or so after my magazine was released. I think from the build up for months before the release, and then the excitement of the release, it finally all came crashing down. But I spent the night in the tub, completely feeling all that was coming forward within, and I felt so much better by the next morning. I didn't fight the feeling, or get angry at myself for feeling blah when I should of been feeling ecstatic. I just allowed. This can sometimes be such a hard thing to do.
This eclipse season has brought alot of changes. Some really good ones too. Some new perspectives. New surges in relationship (good and bad). Some getting to the core of things. And soon, we get yet another partial eclipse. These times remind me of the A.A. saying 'It works if you work and it won't if you don't. It truly is a true statement, and a wonderful mantra.
