“Luxury to me is not about buying expensive things; it’s about living in a way where you appreciate things.” – Oscar De La Renta
Good Morning readers, after the fashion world’s recent loss of Oscar De La Renta, the quote above really stuck out to me. So I thought I’d share a few of my favorite things with you this morning that I consider luxuries. To me, it’s really the little things in life like being able to enjoy coffee in the morning and desert after dinner or even in the middle of the day! It’s about getting to wear my fuzzy socks and robe while working from home, having lunch with my best friend and not having to worry that I need to be back at work at a certain time. Luxury is getting to enjoy the things you love to do without the stress and worry that there is something else you should be doing and it’s about appreciating the time you have to soak it up. Time is luxury! Don’t get me wrong, I also find nice handbags, weekend trips to the beach and weeklong stays in Europe luxuries too, but again it’s still about the time you have to enjoy those things. I hope I explained how I feel correctly and didn’t come off as ignorant by saying any of that. All I’m trying to say is that to me, luxury is the time being able to do what I love whether that means playing with my little fairy-god-child and best friend, drinking coffee and desert outside with my boyfriend, a weekend at the beach or even just blogging in my pajamas and fuzzy socks. I value all of that more than anything.
