How perfectly do these outfits complement each other? After seeing them I immediately wanted to wear my chunkiest shoes with socks, cuffed jeans, and an oversized jacket every single day. The slight variation in shades between shirt and jacket is both elemental and sophisticated. I see the polished look evolving more these days to include the relaxed confidence seen here. This is comfortable unisex dressing at its finest.

  • Yesterday I posted this photo in stories but deleted it shortly after because I was embarrassed. I look angry but in truth this is my face at rest, albeit tired. Most days I look at my post-menopausal face and body and don’t recognize them, but in this moment the anger, sadness, and loathing I normally experience (which is a complicated topic) was more subdued. I liked the picture so I’m not sure I know how to articulate why posting it felt so unacceptable. Here it is again, acting as a reminder to just post the damn thing. Lately the need to be more open about menopause, something I’ve shared with very, very few people, is one I’ve felt strongly. I don’t know exactly what that looks like in such a public space, but I think it’s worth exploring.
  • I haven’t felt terribly festive this year (a statement I’ve probably made for 4+ years) but we’re going to Kentucky on Christmas Day and I’m crossing my fingers for snow to put me in the holiday mood. Because of the bookstore we don’t get to take vacations or visit family often and we are beyond ready for some time away.
  • I hope new plant growth always excites me as much as it does today.
  • Sinus infection day four: dressing way better than I feel. And I promise I don’t wear this skirt every day 🙃
  • Just looking at this painting makes me feel calm.
