Cause sometimes it’s good to stop, to sit down on the stairs of a church in the middle of the road, not giving a damn of the white dress. Just to catch your breath. Not do anything, not even wait for someone, something.
Cause it’s good to get lost. Most people would deny it but getting lost sometimes is the only way to find your way. Or to find something. A vintage shop, a little bit of fomo, a timeless shoemaker because they stop the time. Something or somebody. Yourself?
Cause this sun mashes my heart with happiness, so much, I want to dance before 8 o’clock in the morning while the coffee is on the stove.
Cause I’m looking for a long dress, a movie-star one, like those I – yes me, not entirely normal – would wear at home, shoeless. While eating french macaroons, lying on the couch with a glass of Coca-cola with ice and lemon.
Cause the idea of a placid and nostalgic and opulent and decadent lagoon by night waiting for me makes this Sunday morning romantic.
Cause it would be good having a flamingo at home. Indeed, wonderful.
Cause I love going to the gym in the morning at seven, while Vilnius still dozes because, I tell you – it’s a like a fine young gentleman. And nothing matters if at noon it’s like five pm for me.
Cause breakfast in bed is a moment of negligible happiness.
Cause I’m super in love with my new dress.
“Because we’re always and only where we want to be. The rest is geographical excuse”. And move and get lost and stop and start again. It’s far easier than we might think. Kind of a brave deed, we owe to ourselves.
Happy Sunday, cupcakes!
And I will always love You, Greta.

This beautiful knitted dress is from Dagmar which I was lucky enough to get from the photo shoot we were doing for the fall issue of Cosmo. It can not be purchased until the fall unfortunately… It is available in white as well and I fancy both! 🙂

Hi Greta,
First time posting, and I found your blog via another one, but wanted to say that your blog is absolutely beautiful! I also work in fashion and you have the rare ability to evoke powerful thoughts and feelings with your words and photos that have that “je ne sais quoi feel good factor.” I have read your whole blog, and you seem to be in a really good place. I hope you are very proud of your recovery.

Thanks so much for sharing that sense of peace, and joy . It’s lovely to bein the ‘flow’, being mindful. Enjoying in all the little things. I totally agree, as humans move ‘faster’ , it’s lovely to be ‘attentive’. To , as my nana taught me, ‘don’t forget to smell the roses’, lol…..love to you sweet Greta
Love Ziggy

Hi Greta! I have been reading your blog since March this year. I stumbled over it while searching some inspiration for my trip to London and then got lost in your blog! It’s wonderful, perfect, lovely, stunning…I could go on like this for hours! And this last post is touching my heart so strongly! Thank you for your wonderful words, I will keep on reading them! And I will start to change the language of my blog from German to English because it’s easier for me to express in English, although it is not my mother’s tongue. So thank you for inspiring me and thank you for giving me the idea to change to English! I just need to find the time for writing the first article! But first I have to go to the kitchen to bake some macarons 🙂
Bye bye and kisses
Jess

There is something wrong in my comment, I wanted to write “touching my heart so strongly” but it seems there happened a copy-paste-mistake, the URL of my blog shouldn’t be in the comment…

Hey Greta!
I haven’t seen you around much, but I know that people with lives can sometimes get distracted from their blogs. It happens 😉
I hope you’re doing good, though. Not said out of concern, but simply good wishes. 🙂 😀

Hope you’re doing well! 🙂
