A blog about a mother, her clothes, her daughter, and healing from loss.

Day 95

May 29, 2014

Aaaaand we're back.

Well the dust has settled, and the jet lag waned, and I am getting back in to the groove. Still feeling like I want to wear jeans, but thought I would fancy it up with this bag. I really love this old school Gucci look. The bag is a little stiff, but still wearable. I definitely remember my mom wearing this in the 70's.

This Blog comes from the heart and mind, (but mostly from the heart), of Amy Sklar, interior designer, mother, daughter, foodie, and lover of fashion.

I must admit, the driving force behind this blog was my need to somehow, some way, create a tribute to my dear mother Carole Lawrence. She was a great beauty, chef, friend and mother. Sadly, I lost her to cancer February 23rd 2013. Since beginning on February 23rd 2014 it has been my goal to wear a piece of her clothing, jewelry, or an accessory that she passed on to me, for a total of 365 days (Not in a row, sorry, I am also a mother of two, a small business owner, wife and friend. I tried to do it in a row, and it almost broke me.) I believe it is a fitting tribute to this incredible woman with the greatest sense of style I've ever known. A digital archive, a love letter, a journal, a remeberance for your children and future generations. I love you mom.
