Perfect Imperfection

Some people are born beautiful, touching perfection..., and that is all right.
Most of us have to be creative: play down, enhance and  accessorise  the cards we are given; and that,  with the passing of time, is even better...
Algunas personas nace guap@s, tocando la perfección..., y eso está bien.
La mayoría de nosotr@s tenemos que ser creatic@s: cubrir, realzar y adornar las cartas que nos han sido dadas; y eso, con el paso del tiempo, es incluso mejor...
                                                I got this vintage dress in a Car Boot Sale for 1 pound.

que preciosidad de cluytch!!!!!
Mira yo creo que hasta ls perfectas tiene algo imperfecto y eso es lo que nos hace únicas!!!
Una vez me dijeron una cosa que me llegó al alma " perfectamente imperfecta!" y nunca lo he olvidado, además que diversión habría si todo nos quedase divino de la muerte y no tubiesemos que ingeniarnoslas para potenciar los encantos.....que aburrido no???
Xd
Un besazo y me alegro que estés de vuelta que ya te echaba de menos!!!!

My Mum used to say almost the same to me. Don't focus on your imperfections, put lots of effort in your appearance and noone will notice you aren't perfect.
Love that dress on you, car boots rule! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Debbie Baker Burns dijo...

Sacramento, A lovely thought; you have insight and such thoughtful posts. The blue vintage dress is fabulous on you...the color is perfect. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend. Debbie http://thriftygirlvintage.com

The Foolish Aesthete dijo...

You look wonderful. And I think those who have the gift of creativity are so much more beautiful, and increase their beauty with time, than those whose beauty withers after the flower of youth. xxxx

SheWhoAccessorizesWell dijo...

You look lovely as usual. The color is beautiful on you. I love the clutch.
Some people are born beautiful, but with time beauty fades. It is what we make of ourselves that is more important. Too many women today are overly concerned about losing their youth when they should be concerned about making their life the best it can be.

FashionFreak dijo...

¿Pues sabes que te digo? ¡Que viva la imperfección? A mí no me gustan las bellezas perfectas que parecen de plástico ni las personas cortadas todas por el mismo patrón, me gusta la gente que no tiene miedo de ser ella misma y que tiene "algo", que se acepta como es y que sabe sacarse partido y aprovechar al máximo sus cualidades.
Aunque es un poco contradictorio que diga yo esto porque soy una perfeccionista de libro, de las "malas" como digo yo que sólo piensan en términos de blanco o negro, bueno o malo... pero en fin, que poco a poco voy aprendiendo a vivir con mis imperfecciones, y en el fondo las prefiero a la perfección de otros, que para eso son mías jaja

Y me encanta tu look florido de hoy, estás guapísima!! El vestido es precioso y me encanta el bolso

1 beso

the colour definitively suits you, muuuuy guapa. En cuanto a belleza, a mi siempre me ha encantado la historia del patito feo. Lo de florecer de cualquier forma, ya sea desde el interior o el exterior, crecer, madurar y apreciarnos a nosotros como merecemos y al resto del mundo también ;) xxxx
