Yesterday was a special day for me.  If you've been reading this site long enough (and bless you, if you have) you'll remember that back in the early days of On The Plus Side, my beloved friend (and coworker) Kimberley Williamson was supportive, encouraging and most importantly - readily available with her camera. Since I've moved on and she's given birth to darling twin boys....let's just say that our lives have become far more complicated. Yesterday we spent a little time together in Union Square Park so naturally, I dressed for the occasion. It was so nice to revisit how it all started.

All day, people kept complimenting me on my "dress" - my look was constructed out of an awkward length skirt that I decided should be worn high waisted and a tee that's just a smidge too short. Sometimes, if you're lucky, you can take piece that aren't working and make magic by putting them together. Get creative!
