Substance over Style!

It's not like this hasn't happened before.  I started writing, in vintage orange beads from Paris, (I know, oo-la-la) when I took a break to look at pictures from our weekend  trip.  Not sure I like the outfit I was wearing, usually a go to.  I look  plumply ruffled, like I'd been riding on a train for fourteen hours.  I try it on, stand in front of the mirror to see if it's the clothes or the camera.  I don't know, maybe it's the camera angle.  I catch  myself teetering on the precipice of self-loathing.  I comment to my daughter and immediately wish I could take it back;  not wanting her to hear a dialogue that only perpetuates style over substance.  She is beautiful, from the inside out and I don't want her to ever feel less than because of my spewing such nonsense into the universe.  So, I am going to try to be more mindful in what I say.  Back to blogging in...
vintage orange beads...a girl can change things up now and then...can't she?
