I love you also means I love you more than anyone loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that no one loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that I love no one else, and never have loved anyone else, and never will love anyone else.

The Black Book of Colors by Menena Cottin

I stumbled across this while looking for a book for my cousin’s new baby. I was so intrigued by the whole idea. On each left page there was words written in braille and then again in white text. It was the description of colors, according to how a blind child would experience. On the right there were raised etchings of what each page was describing. It’s so beautiful.

One page in particular that really caught my attention was the one describing the color red. It talked about how red is how it feels to bite into a ripe strawberry, or the stinging on your knee after you fall down.  Blue was the feeling of sunshine on your face. 

It’s just so astounding that someone managed this, as the idea of how to describe a color to someone who has no reference has always fascinated and baffled me.

Wearing: Zimmermann dress, Urban Outfitters bra, Zara handbag, Michael Kors watch, Jacquie Aiche letter and diamond rings, Gorjana necklace.
There isn’t much more of an ideal dress for the weather we’ve been experiencing here in Sydney the last few days, making me realise it has been months since I have simply thrown on a silk maxi. Somehow this dress feels more than just another boho inspired, paisley print summer frock- I swear it was made for wandering the streets of a small coastal Italian town. I also appreciate it giving me the illusion of curves. I picked up this bright red lace bra on sale at Urban Outfitters in New York for under $5 and turns out to be the most complimenting undertone to match the dress.
