I’m home! Whoo hoo! It’s always nice being away, but nothing beats a home cooked meal and my very comfy bed. It feels nice however to have brought the Paris heat wave with us to Boston. I spent Sunday with my cousins. After brunch, we stopped by Darwin’s on Mount Auburn Street for coffee. This is where we ran into Ann Marie who was wearing this flowy dress she bought at LF (presumably from the LF in Harvard Square).
My mother and I have verrrry different tastes in fashion. She’s more reserved in her dress, but often brings out her inner wild child. Think Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis meets Alexis from Dynasty. Here’s my mother.
“Oh! Did you see that girl! Wait, why are you taking pictures of her? You’re not going to put that picture on that blog are you?”
“Well, It’s an interesting outfit, ” I said.
“She has holes in her shirt! Why would anyone wear a shirt that has holes in it? Outside. And in daylight nonetheless. Was she hot? Is that why she needed built in AC.”
I couldn’t help but laugh. Not out loud, of course. I couldn’t show her how funny she was being. And so I simply said. “Everyone dresses differently.”
Of course, she didn’t answer. She did harrumph though.
Slightly rumpled and running to class. With the weather being hot and cool all at the same time here, sometimes one does need an over-sized sweater to keep warm.
I have my camera with me these days again! Excited to be style hunting again. The next few days should be a load of fun as Boston Fashion Week gets underway on Friday. WCVB’s Chronicle will have a whole segment on Boston Fashion Week and the fashion scene here in Boston. If you can check it out! Yours truly will be interviewed on the show. In the meantime, happy Wednesday.
The students are back! I ran into Marisa, a sophomore at Harvard College, while having a quick espresso pick me up last week.Welcome to back students! To the freshman class of 2015, welcome to Boston. Just remember to invest in long underwear for those cooooold winter days.
Hmm….I’m noticing that I’ve been posting a lot of navy blue on the blog. I may have a new favorite color!
What are you up to this weekend? I have a few assignments though we plan on spending a bit of time on Cape Cod before fall truly settles in. For those of you who are State side, enjoy the long weekend!
