Summer is winding down. I am not thrilled, but every year I feel a little bit more prepared for the temporary gloom that I experience in the cooler grey months. I make sure I take vitamins, and sit in my front window while I work so that the warm morning sun hits my skin, and …
A couple really important things are going on in the photos above. The first is that I’m wearing clothes I love. The second is that I feel like my clothes reflect my attitude. For a long time I’ve dressed in a way that many people would describe as “girly”. I’ve written about it before, and …
