August Day 11 :: Purple
When my gandmother passed, wow nearly a year ago now, I was fortunate to acquire a number of articles of clothing from her. She was a woman with classic, timeless style. Today I wore one of her tops and it's amazing how perfectly it fits in with today's fashion. I'm not sure in what era she wore it, but you would think I purchased it from any of the trendy stores of today. Every time I wear an article of her clothing I feel I have a piece of her with me.
That's so beautiful. And it does fit in with today's fashion. It's like your walking around with a special memory and secret. Love that.
ReplyDeleteI so love that you are wearing (and treasuring!) your grandmother's clothing! It is a classic piece and you are so right about how woman with timeless style have closets that well...really never go out of style! I was at my grandparent's 60th wedding anniversary party last month and was looking around the room and I kept thinking, "Wow! That blouse is gorgeous!" or "I so would buy that dress!" LOL!
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for your comment on my blog ;) I actually use a self-tanner (mix it up between St. Tropaz and Victoria's Secret). I do it every Sunday so I think I'm always darker in my photos near the beginning of the week :)
Hope you have a great day Melody!
