Spring Capsule: White & Denim
“I promise to tidy up before company arrives, wouldn’t want my socks & daydreams all over the carpet.”
Spring Capsule 2018: White & Denim #anthrostyle | Brave Girl Blog
Have you had that moment yet? When your denim lightens. When your blouse gets thinner – a sheer veil replacing knitted armor. The socks come off. Barefeet a bit unsure after hiding from months of chill. The movement inward to stay warm suddenly expands outward to warmth all around you.
Do we mimic the seeds around us? Do they lead by example?
These are the thoughts I have as I slowly remove the dust bunnies from their corners. I daydream about what this space can be – for the outward to reflect the inward – as I wait to welcome a friend into our unfinished living room.
I will resist the urge to say, “Sorry for the mess.” May I not apologize for the place I'm in.
I wonder where the candle should go. Moving it from one surface to the next, stepping back to see if it made a difference. Thinking this will spark a solution for where the rug needs to lay. Is a room like an outfit in some sense?
White top. Loose denim. Hair pinned back. No shoes.
I can always count on this formula when in doubt – for the outward to reflect the inward. And I think, just like this outfit, the solution for this space will come in time. I only need to wait for the moment I'm just as sure.
Classic. Simple. Light.
I hear a knock at the door. My friend has arrived. I step over the dust bunnies and the prints. The candle is fine where it is.
“Welcome! I'm so happy you're here.”
The prints on this floor really look best on walls. Shop them here.
