Best way to get in touch with your feminine side

Filed Under Inspiration | 43 comments

Dear Lizzie RS

Typically I don’t fancy myself very “girlie” or fancy feminine. My style seems a bit more on the traditional side.

~~However~~
the Best way to get in touch with my over the top feminine  side,

 is to step into a delicious Boutique.

changing room RS

Dear Lizzie is one of those fantastic Boutiques!

Even down to the soft drape and very pink touches at the dressing rooms– you will be charmed by every cliche` known to PINK-dom. (yes, I have been known to create my own words- now shoosh!)

Items of every sort, reminiscent of vintage inspirations, are merchandised perfectly.

The only difference between an extraordinary life and an ordinary one is the extraordinary pleasures you find in ordinary things. ~ Veronique Vienne

My divine sister and brother in law adore one another and are the perfect example of an extraordinary life amid ordinary adventures. They work together, their worlds intersecting every day of the week, and yet at the end of the day they choose to work with one another on one of their numerous passions – their yard and garden.
