Nude and Mint

Monday, April 11, 2016 6:30 AM

Good morning Dolls! I am back from about a two week hiatus. My beloved nana passed away nine days shy of her 97th birthday, and my family and I have been spending a lot of time together celebrating her life. Although she was in her nineties and we have all known this day was surely going to come, you can never fully be prepared.   

I have also caught yet another nasty cold. I am not sure if it is allergies or my immune system is just working at an all time low, but for the past month I have been catching everything. Moral of the story, never boast about your super human immune system, because you will inevitably come down with the plague soon thereafter. 

As wonderfully mild of a winter we had in the Northeast, we have had a chillier beginning to Spring. The temps will allegedly be climbing back up this week, and I am really praying for some much needed outside time over the next few days.

Hope you all are having a wonderful start to your week!

xx, Elise

    I am so sorry about your nana Elise. The break was much deserved. That tunic sweater with the oversized side slits is gorgeous and unique as is your tote bag. I love the whole mint monochrome. I hope you feel better now too.

    Welcome by. I started a linkup on Thursdays and I would love for you to join me tomorrow and every Thursday.

    Thanks and Happy Hump Day! Ada. =)
