"Tucked away. Almost forgot. Life is lived beyond anyone's thought. At the foot of the hills where simplicity dwells. Live is lived, and it's lived well."
Near Judith Gap, Montana
Simplicity Built by Wendy 2863 OOP.
This dress has an elastic waist but feel it needs a belt so it's not too boring. I don't wear this dress much but think it will be in rotation more often this summer with my favorite rainbow polka dot wedges.
No belt

I made the wrap version, with the short sleeves and the belt.
The fabric is a cotton voile from Westminster Fibers, in a colorway that is ideal for someone with three black and white dogs.
I thought the fabric would be too sheer to wear without a slip or lining but it turns it's absolutely fine without, which is great. This a perfect summer dress.

Trying to capture falling feathers - not very simple! The quote is apt.
Note to self: Think of something more simple next time!

Ps: sorry for dumping in early (officaly 39 mins). I'm away for a few days.
This was from our first night in WA. The beach was just couple of minutes walk from the Coogee holiday park we were staying that night.
We were just sitting on the beach, enjoying the first sunset in the west, occasionaly clicking the button on our cameras
I wish I could go back .-)

Ironically, I'm finding it far from simple to explain this picture. In short, I find it fascinating that the simple sound "om" or "aum" (which is the symbol in this picture) has such a complex meaning; not only in general, but also for me personally. To me this photo illustrates that juxtaposition of complexity and simplicity in a way which I can't figure out how to explain properly
(Before anyone comments on this, I am aware that the symbol is missing a dot. I somehow forgot it when I was drawing it and didn't realize it was missing until the photo had already been edited)
Theme 1/31: Simplicity
This dress had so many little pieces, which was perfect for using up the ends of some favorite fabrics. Very fun pattern! The headband is not part of the pattern. . .made that one up.

This image is so evocative of 1908. It embodies simplicity, A&C aesthetics, the deep curiosity about all things Oriental. Music was an essential component of the 1908 home ... like TV is now except more active and sensual than passive.

This image is for Kim Klassen's Be Still 52 Week 4. Kim introduced us to the concept of wabi sabi, which I'd never heard of before. Characteristics of the wabi-sabi aesthetic include asymmetry, asperity (roughness or irregularity), simplicity, economy, austerity, modesty, intimacy, and appreciation of the ingenuous integrity of natural objects and processes. I chose to photograph these orchid blooms for a touch of the oriental influence in a soft simplistic manner to express one of the characteristics of wabi sabi. I have a new-found and great appreciation for wabi sabi.
