Sometimes I wonder how I can grow so far away from the things that I love – even if they are so close…
Like this jacket with the classic, and my absolute favorite, hound's-tooth check – how has it been so long since it’s kept me warm?
And these Ked’s that I’ve had forever, but have been buried under the soles of my other shoes. 
Sure, it’s a sad thing to lose sight of the past – but these things, be it a jacket, a pair of shoes, friends, family, or a picture can always turn back time.
What reminds you of the past?
such insight, and about simple things like clothing, too... only you my dear! I love it.
ReplyDeletegreat great post!! It is true that simple things mean the world! I love that coat, btw
ReplyDeleteIt's so funny...I have different items of clothing that literally make me remember past relationships, triumphs, tragedies, and friendships. I actually hold on to them for sentimental value - I don't actually wear them! Love this post, Emily!! :)
ReplyDeletethat's a beautiful coat. lost, but not forgotten = so true.
ReplyDeletethis is a beautiful post- so glad i have your blog on my reader now :) it is so true.

I love attaching memories to clothes. Its so true, finding old clothes is a great way to look into the past.
ReplyDelete:) love love.
ReplyDeletethere are lots of things that remind me of the past, like my bedroom at home, old tv shows, hot chocolate.
happy wednesday!

I have so many "clothes" memories. I always remember holidays and my out fit on those holidays. So, when I see a certain sweater, or a pair of sneaks, I think about spending time with family and friends in the past.
ReplyDeleteLove that coat... Timeless.
ReplyDeleteI have a scarf that I've had for years reminds me of so many winter memories. Even just smelling it can bring back past moments.

I love that you've been playing around with an SLR, it really adds something special to the style of your blog!
ReplyDeleteLove the coat!
songs always bring back old memories for me. For example, black eyed peas reminds me of a summer (2 or 3 years ago, I believe) ah, it was the best summer of my life. I was so carefree and happy. I love that song now :)
ReplyDeleteIt's always great to unearth hidden treasures from the past. And you will be amazed at how much you kept all these years. I love your houndstooth coat.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing things I haven't seen in a long time. It's almost like unwrapping a present!
ReplyDeleteConverses remind me of the past. And things I still have boxed up in the garage :(
Love that coat. And you've got gorgeous hair.
ReplyDeleteA lot of things remind me of the past. It can be a single place, or a single word, that sparks up deja vu.
My journals.. which reminds me that I have been neglecting my journal writing WAY too much. The blog is sort of taking it's place which is sad because I love my journals. I love to read back on the good, the bad, and especially on how far I've come.
ReplyDeleteOooold pictures are fun too. :)
