Do you remember this? I do, and I think of it as one of my finest hours! (well, MANY hours…)

If you’d like to flash back to the lovely trip that our heroine was taking with this travel capsule wardrobe, you can find her here.
And a couple of days later our heroine decided to start building a larger wardrobe around the same color scheme; this was what she found and how it worked out…
Through the end of the summer, I’m going to “flash back” twice a week (I’m targeting Tuesdays and Thursdays…) I hope that this isn’t an inconvenience for any of you; I have a couple of trips coming up (of COURSE I do…) and I find that I need a bit of time to get things sorted out chez nous.
love,
Janice

Hey keep posting such good and meaningful articles.
Janice,
You have done so many fabulous posts that revisiting a few is like seeing them new all over again ! Call me a slow learner, but I often find myself gleaning another aspect that I missed the first time around ! That Chi Chi dress has me swooning ! Enjoy your travels !
I'm working my way through your blog archives anyway, so this is welcome!
I agree. These posts seem new again! This o e is especially lovely – the core, the femininity! Just. Beautiful. Janice Collins, Washington DC
Flashbacks are most welcome! Often I dig into the archives or Pinterest to revisit previous posts. Happy Travels!
I hope your travel is to fabulous destinations! Thank you for providing some updated similar items for this classic post. Taupe is such a versatile color, but not it really can be hard to find. – nancyo
I am very new to your blog so revisiting some former pages is great- it is all new to me!
This is lovely! Janice, if one of your trips is to Ireland I'd love to take you out for a coffee or a cocktail…… or both!
I do remember this one, loved the heroine and I always love your stories. Doing the reruns is a good way to plug in during busy times. Thanks for the tip, the garden's taking up a lot of my time right now and reruns seem a nicer approach than going MIA for days, which is what I tend to do!
I'm loving the softer, lighter palettes this week. Thank you!
Did anyone else see this article? Can't help but think of all of the lessons I've learned from the Vivienne Files… 🙂
