There are people who are always looking towards the horizon - gauging how far away they are, checking for any changes in the weather that might obscure their vision, planning their route to get there. And there are those who dawdle, running their hands along a wall as they walk, lost in a song or a memory flickering through their heads, enjoying the sun or the breeze as it wafts past. When people ask me what my plan for life is, I'm blank. I think - I don't need a plan for my life. It's already here.
Please think of those in the Pacific suffering from the aftermath of the tsunami and those in my home country, ravaged by typhoons. Consider a donation or even just a thought to those people. Stay safe, lovelies.

ReplyDeletei am in love with that dress. paper bag princess is a treasure trove!! It's too bad i don't go to left bank as often as i used to :(
ReplyDeletei tried to leave uni early on Thursday to catch the city gallery before it closed, but by the time i got there, it was already 4.50pm and they were shooing everyone out. Oh well, i shall try this week!
i don't like it when people ask me what i want to do with my life.
Love the dresses and teaware, simply sweet :)

I cannot believe that I was in Wellington for the wearable arts this weekend and utterly forgot to ask you for shop/vintage recommendations! So frustrated at myself! :(

Your purple dress is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI hope you didn't have friends or family there. Even if you didn't, it's still a tragic news story.
ReplyDeleteSome horrific survivor stories keep popping up on the news daily. So intense :(
ReplyDeleteI'm liking the transitional spring look you've got going on! Mmmm and Mi piaci shoes...
Yeah and didn't manage to bump into Rumi btw. Damn.
