Black & Blue Easy Summer Style

May 16, 2015 by suzanne carillo

I adore this easy summer style outfit I created. You could switch out the blue shoes for some black or even bright flat sandals and it would still look great.

It used to be a huge no-no putting black and blue together. Now I quite love it if it is a bright blue like these funky shoes that are calling my name. My finger hovered over that, “buy now” button too long. They are now sold out of my size. My wallet is breathing a sigh of relief.

Brown and black was the same thing, you weren’t ever supposed to wear them together. Funny how times and ideas change. Do you ever wear black with blue or brown?

In my recent hot yoga the instructor read out loud while we transitioned through poses, ⁣

When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it. It's a reminder of what it means to face resistance and keep moving. Like an airplane meeting headwinds, we often find our strength not in smooth skies but in turbulent ones. Headwinds build lift. They give the wings something to push against. In the same way, strength through resistance is born in those moments when everything feels uphill. It’s in these moments that quiet courage grows, even when it doesn’t feel heroic. Struggles don’t always mean we’re failing. They may mean we’re in the very place where transformation begins. The wind that pushes against you now might be the wind that teaches you how to soar. ⁣

Hot yoga and this teacher in particular has been a saviour for me. The meditative lessons on overcoming challenges in life have made me weep openly while on my mat but they have also helped loosen the trauma trapped deep inside the tissues of my body. ⁣
