Small Town Status

January 24, 2013,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I come from a small town but Well, Limburg is even smaller. With about 2,500 residents  and only a handful of small shops, it embodies the typical small town image. People walk and bike to everything and there’s a great sense of community within the village. Coming from downtown Boston this was a hard adjustment to make. My style tends to have more of an urban edge that feels a little out of place in this environment. I’m still trying to find the balance between style and overdoing it.

    You look lovely as always…….. I assume that you were able to pack many pairs of tights for your journey..I know I did when I went over to Europe to study ballet last fall.

    I love the skirt, blouse and especially the tights. That’s coming from a big city dude! Lol
