I’m so glad you wrote about this, because I’d forgotten what you said about themes rather than resolutions, and I needed reminding. The theme of style seems so much about self care, in a way. You care for yourself, so you dress yourself in ways that make you feel good. You care for your environment, so you keep it clean, functional, and aesthetically pleasing to your eye. It feels to me like an act of love.
As for a seasonal theme, I’m with you. I’ll think of one, too! Thanks for the inspiration. And thanks also for the extremely encouraging news that the longest day of the year is nearly behind us.

I do think style can be an act of love, especially in the way it makes you ask, "Who am I, independent of anyone else?"
