Good morning, Friday. The sun is shining, it's a clear and beautiful day, and most importantly, it's the weekend. I'm sure you've been working like crazy as have I and I'm feeling excited for a few days of the down low. (Very low).
With Spring breathing its first breaths into our spirits and souls, I felt inspired by this 2003 (I'm so into looking back lately- it's not nostalgia, it's just taking the tried and true and making it new) Vogue UK fashion story shot by Corinne Day, whose images always captured something light and happy and fresh. I adore these images of Gisele looking less Brazilian glamazon and more dressed down. And with temperatures about to rise and longer hours of daylight, I can't help but crave a bit of the bohemian vibe to coincide with all of that dappled light. And I know the whole Mickey Mouse sweatshirt thing was a hot minute ago, but love the idea of a vintage sweatshirt with a flowy skirt and some cute kicks. Can't beat it. And a black and white print is always spot on, especially when it feels vintage and Ossie Clark/Stevie Nicks like. I love this look- so Gold Dust Woman. And somehow longer silhouettes can feel very liberating and free. Sure it helps to be a giant Brazilian, but you too can channel the look in your own way, I'm sure of it (said the 5'5" American of Eastern European descent).
So if the temps hold up this weekend, loosen up your vibe and throw on something feminine with some cute tomboy touches. It's a great way to go for everything from window shopping in the neighborhood to post workout brunch to gallery hopping date day into night. Hope you all have a lovely weekend- feeling grateful for Spring and although we may get another storm next week, my outlook remains decidedly sun filled. Cause that's what's up this spring in my step kind of Friday in the beautiful 212. Yours, in laid back ease. Let's all just take it down a notch this weekend, shall we? XO
