Swirls and Wood: A Post For Umbreen

Blouse thrifted || Anne Klein pants: thrifted at Double Take || Shoes: Urban Outfitters || Earrings: Stella and Dot || Necklace: Ettika.com || Bracelets: Trustan & America and gifts from Mom

I haven't been very consistent with blog posting this week. 
And I was thinking that maybe I'll take a break from the blog for a while. Maybe forever?
But last night, I saw my cousin/friend/doll-face Umbreen and mentioned this thought to her and she said "But I look forward to your blog posts."
And so this post is for you Umbers.


You never know how meaningful simple words, or a kind gesture or a sincere smile can be to the person on the receiving end. Since blogging often feels like a very solitary venture, I imagine that nobody is really interested if I don't post regularly. But Umbreen's sweet remark inspired me to fire up the laptop (something I haven't been doing these past few nights - uh, my laptop is pretty heavy - must downsize - anyway) and post this post for her.

Thank you for visiting and I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

    Natasha,

    I look forward to your posts too! I would be sad if you stopped. I like a little of your sunshine and thoughtfulness every day. Perhaps you need to nudge the blog in a new direction? Maybe its perfect as it is. What does it give YOU?

    love,
    Sarah

    I'm looking forward to seeing you incorporate your Eastern clothing into your everyday wardrobe, so I'm hoping you will feel inspired to keep posting. I haven't seen that look anywhere else. Also I'm stuck in California and I love to see others' winter outfits - and pictures in the snow!

    I look forward to your posts even though I don't comment all the time. I own several shalwar kameez and have been looking forward to seeing you style non-western clothing in creative ways. I always love the outfits you come up with, regardless.

    Have a wonderful weekend.

    I'm not big on commenting, but I check and enjoy your blog daily. As a fellow Torontonian, I like to see how someone in the same city is playing with style. I also enjoy reading your thoughts on things that aren't fashion-related.

    I hope you keep posting, because I also enjoy your posts! But I understand the sentiment of feeling of being out there on your own - it happens to me all the time!

    PS: I love your hair:)

    I absolutely respect whatever course your blogging needs to take, though wanted to tell you that in addition to so admiring your style and gorgeous photos, I would miss your smarts and cultural consciousness / feminist perspective among my regular reads.

    This outfit is fantastic on you - I love the blouse and pants with those green earrings!

    Please keep blogging. I love coming on here. You're so positive and brilliant. I don't get to comment often as I check blog out on phone/iPad and it's a hassle sometimes. You're allowed a break but please don't go. And u're supposed to blog about my future visit to Toronto and how we had dinner and all...lol
