The sky is still black, but begs to be red.
I just put my book down, but it begs to be read
I'm not nod, I'm not napper, never rest my head.
Some days I feel I'm getting smaller and smaller,
But some nights, I seem to grow taller and taller.
And we keep shrinkin' and shrinkin' but this will not finish.
You're never nothing, if you didn't disappear.
Just when I discovered the meaning of life, they change it.
Just when I'm loving life, it seems to start raining.
I pulled the sail safe switch, sea sail and I'm into the stars.
I love the rain out my skies. The sky's now red, my eyes reflect jets.
Smiling at this blessing, this life is the best.
I came to this world with nothing
And I leave with nothing but love
Everything else is just borrowed
- EVERYTHING IS BORROWED - THE STREETS
My new job requires me to wear all black, but I never seem to run out of ideas on how to mix blouses and skirts I already own. The serving pouch requires a belt so I mix and match those too! All black can get really boring especially in the summer, this may have been my inspiration to purchase a few floral printed items recently. Summer 2010 is swimming with flowers, and they are a great way to brighten up your wardrobe. Here are some photos off the runway that really inspired many summer collections found in a store near you.

I love the Dennis Basso florals. I used to work at B&Q [DIY store] and had to wear a uniform of black polo shirt, black combat trousers and a bright orange apron, so I know how you feel about the all black uniform.

ReplyDeleteand you can nerver go wrong with black-great post :)

ReplyDeleteomG, those Dennis Basso prints are fabulous!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd don't worry about the all-black, like you said, it's those small accessories that make it all better (especially those amazing nude pumps).
