Seeing Red

Hi, Tuesday- after a lovely weekend at Canyon Ranch in Miami (yes, that sounds pretentious. I know.), I'm feeling a weird mix of energy and a slight depression. It was a fabulous weekend of eating well, exercising, laying by the pool, and feeling at ease. But duty calls and the workweek begins and inertia is not an option so here I am, feeling a bit deflated yet grateful for the experience of spa life this past weekend.

So I'm channeling (or trying to) this fabulous Tommy Ton shot during the men's shows in Paris- it's pretty impossible to want to stay home in an outfit such as this, and I want that confidence to invade my day, in fact, I need it to. And I am a huge fan of a seamed stocking, who isn't really? It doesnt' get much sexier in the gam department than that. And I adore her walk- that saunter, that I'll get there when I want to, merci beaucoup kind of thing she has happening. And although we don't see her face, we get the attitude, don't we? Loving the wristlet bag too, dangling casually from that elegant little wrist. It sure beats a work tote full of worky stuff, doesn't it? And that mix of red, blue on the hat, and lavender suede on the shoes? Divine. It's many different things, but it all works- that's true style and sexy bravado, children. She is so owning it.

In any event, this little Colette of a creature is making me happy today- and the theme of this post Independence Day Tuesday is confidence and simply owning your own personal vibe, whatever that may be today, even though we would all most likely rather be taking a stroll in Paris. I'm simply going to channel and summon that today, as I slog through. I suggest you do the same. Be brave, get your swagger on, and be sexy all the while. Cause that's what's up this I gotta be me and you'll wait for me to get there  kind of Tuesday in the MIA. XO
