I (we) are back. We arrived home a few days ago. It was amazing, unplugging was the best thing I have done in a while. Vacations are the second best thing, together they are heaven.

Did you know that people in France take a significant vacation every three months? Just think about that for a minute or two.. And then think about how well dressed the French are.. I see a direct correlation.

I suspect the French are a little better at maintaining their wardrobes, I don’t think the hang on to things that aren’t working for them. We do. I know this because at least 90% of the women I work with have too many things in their wardrobe. I love the Wardrobe Cleanse for that reason, we spend hours going through all your clothes, making piles of what works and what doesn’t.

If you don’t love it now, and if it doesn’t fit now, let it go. Open up the space for the right pieces, this is my philosophy, which is quite french don’t you think?

I just did my own wardrobe.

I had this really great idea of posting my New Years Eve outfit (a bikini) on this blog, but the camera battery is still charging, and I have to get ready for my sweet husband’s rock show.

We, my sweet husband and I, are leaving tomorrow for two weeks. I have decided to take this opportunity to unplug for the holidays. No blogs, no e-mail, no phone, nothing. I admit the thought is equally terrifying and exhilarating. You know what I mean.

For all the incredibly lucky receivers of a Jessie Carlson Wardrobe Gift Certificate, I can’t wait to meet you! And you will receive priority booking once I am home.

For the rest of you, thank-you for reading my blog, and I wish you all so much love and light over the holidays. I will see you in the New Year as we plan another year of unending style.

Stay warm, but dress well. xo
