Wood Brown Dress
Guess if you ask me why I chose the color wood brown for a dress it probably was on sale, and this dress was a special one since I purchased it in NYC with my best girlfriend during one of our many shopping sprees.
Even though I miss her dearly, it's this very dress that she talked me into buying that was one of the funnest of days and a great memory. We took the train in and walked around the fashion district all day shopping at sample sales and being a typical New York City girl.
Those are some of the days I miss the most, no one outside of the City really understands what it's like and if I wore any of these clothes in the mountain of Colorado they would look at me as if I lost my mind, even in San Francisco they would think I was trying to up them in some way.
The ability to live without judgment is something I really miss a lot too. How one looks, dresses, acts does not get a second glance. In my second hometown everyone is accepted or just goes unnoticed. Minding one's own business is certainly appreciated. Breathing a sigh of loss, I can only remember the good times I had and cherish the moments I once experienced. For that I am truly grateful.
