Am I an anorexic Russian heiress? <br /><br />Really like your 4 Questions, kind of a condensed version of book "Style Statement" by Danielle Laporte and Carrie McCarthy. Since I distilled my Style Statement (two words) do not make mistakes- at least according to me and who else counts? Not Anna Wintour! <br /><br />Vildy! That's wise and so right on for me as well.

My friends forward emails featuring clothing they have seem that screams Jill. Sometimes I wonder if I've become a parody. But, I don't care. I enjoy everything I wear. It's very me. So the answers:<br />1. I'm comfortable with my sexuality. I enjoy being a woman. <br />2. A comfortable peacock...I like attention. I wear a lot of color.<br />3. Well traveled Bohemian<br />4. I need to express my creativity as I am a designer. I do a lot of fundraising...primarily wooing men to open their checkbooks for worthy, cultural causes. So there needs to be a litte bit of sex appeal. I throw many dinner parties and I end up in the newspaper often. El Paso is a small town...so that's not tooting my horn. There aren't many people out and about as much as we are. Clothing is so exciting...an extension of who we are. I don't want to play it safe.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08171054999389018364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5536011140055575088.post-89954550144485734032009-09-08T08:49:11.404-07:002009-09-08T08:49:11.404-07:00Let's pretend your life is in alignment.

My daytime endeavors historically interfered with what I wished to, wanted to, wear. First nursing, then motherhood. Now, living on this island, I could get away with LL Bean neutrals year round. Thankfully, I am not even tempted. I try for creative/sophisticated/not-trying-too-hard. Whether I achieve it or not is anyone's guess.
