Babies first pair (or two!) of glasses so I can see in grad school! 🤓
When I first tried the oversized pair on in the store I was a honestly overwhelmed by how much I felt like I was channeling my late mother. Her many oversized glasses were etched in my memory from my childhood and I hadn’t thought about them in quite some time.
During one of my classes at we’ve been discussing beauty, identify and how your family can shape all of the above. I had forgotten for a while my moms style influence on me as it’s coming up on 15 years since she left this earth. Reaching for these glasses and looking into the mirror and wondering if I was seeing myself or my mom made me remember how much I’m thankful she shaped and encouraged me to follow my own path even if I was marching to the beat of my own drum. ❤️ So I will wear these glasses in honor of you mum, keep on marching and also so I can read what’s projected on the screen in grad school 💕👩🎓 📚
Throwing in a mid ‘90s fam photo to see one of her many 🤓 + her floral blazer! Also note my Blossom inspired wardrobe which I styled myself 🌸 Plus me + my mom as babes!
