Peace on Earth

There's a certain peacefulness that's indescribable. I think everyone finds it in different places. Mine is on a beach. When no one else is there. Just you. And your loved one. And the water. And God. That's it. That feeling can't be replaced by anything. Muse: Eun Hae Salanoa Photography: Jessica Taylor

Inspire Fall Fashion

This shop is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group®, InStyle, Vogue and Elle, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #inspirefallfashion   http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV Fall fashion is my favorite. As soon as the September issues of my favorite fashion magazines hit the stands, I rushed out to get them. Target had two of my favorites - Vogue and InStyle. I was so excited to see that maxi-length sheer dresses was a popular choice in the September issue of Vogue. In Texas and Hawaii the weather cools down but isn't exactly cold yet. It's just right. That fits perfectly with this trend. And it's an awesome transition from the summer heat! What are your favorite fall fashion trends?

Healing

Losing Duke has been hard. I knew that he meant so much to me but maybe I didn't know exactly how much. I didn't realize how much of my daily life revolved around him. How much I depended on him. How much happier he made every single day. I picked up my baby's ashes a little over a week ago. I had been numb for a few days prior to that. But on that day, I lost it. Here I was holding this small cedar box and my sweet baby boy was in there. How was that possible? How is that right? I began driving myself crazy with what-ifs and if-onlys. I blamed myself and wondered how I could have done things differently. I thought about how ironic it was that just last summer, a year ago, I went through a different kind of "death" . A little over a year ago I was happy. I had my own little family. And now what was left of that? I am grateful to have such a great circle of friends who have been helping me get out of this rut. My darling Eun Hae sent me The Rainbow Bridge...
