i believe in wearing gorgeously impractical gowns while living in my tiny home.

& i won't lie, i believe in spanx too. but please, do not, i repeat, do not...under any circumstances wear spanx on a first date with a hunk you might make out with. when tyler's hand lands on your unnaturally tight tush, you'll have some explainin' to do. yup, this happened. we didn't have a second date. haha! i resorted to a billion butt crunches at the gym. {get it gurl.}

whoa, someone gets si...detracked easily. where was i going with this.

oh, that dress. i pranced thru macy's & gasped the moment i saw it. {think pretty woman, walkin' down the street.} america fell in love with julia roberts. we'll always love her for that laugh. & remember how radiant she looked in that red, off the shoulder evening gown with long white gloves? oh my gahhh, was she stunning or what.

as the ahas come to me as the days go by, this one is grand. because, as i sat down with who i was...i decided that change was necessary if self-love was going be a part of my life.

what is the opposite of self-love? i know...i can't even write it. it's too sad. sad that any of us, ever have to feel that.

{in a society that profits from your self-doubt, loving yourself is a rebellious act.}

darling, be a rebel with me. & wear red while you're at it. discover the moments that make you feel most in ❤️ with you. your mission is to recreate them & repeat them. this is not selfish, it is absolutely necessary for the survival of your gentle soul.

read t h a t again.

this gown did that for me. i sat at my trailer table at 8:46am...with the meet joe black original motion picture soundtrack playing & coffee brewing. my kate spade polka-dot cereal bowl was filled with yogurt & granola & blueberries. and at that moment, i created a moment that i will forever & ever repeat. in red. with white gloves.

i am the rebel.
