What a wonderful response everyone gave me to the first ever ‘What I’m Wishing‘. Seeing everyone’s imagination, daydreams, and outfits really inspired me to keep this fun little section going.

It feels so nice to step away from reality once in a while, and create moments of pure bliss…even if they are just in our heads! I really hope that we can keep this segment alive, and continue to outdo ourselves on a weekly basis.

What is my current wish?

I wish I were sitting in an outdoor cafe in Paris, sipping a piping hot cup of coffee with soy milk and one sugar cube while watching the people walk by. Of course no one pays any attention to me while I watch them, because I am incognito, and am gazing over the top of a French fashion magazine. A mother and her five year old daughter walk by with a handful of collars attached to three untrimmed, white toy poodles. A server comes to my table and delivers me a few slices of fresh baked bread with some butter on the side. As I spread the melting butter across the hot bread, I look over and see an old couple romancing each other over éclairs and tea. A man selling flowers comes by, and the older gentleman buys a rose for the lady. She blushes, and says something to him in Portuguese. As the day wears on, I leave the cafe and wander through the city, stopping to look in the windows of several shops. I find a small produce stand with the freshest fruits and vegetables. I buy a bag full of vegetables and head back to my hotel room. I saute up the vegetables and sit on my balcony watching the city fall asleep.

Now, it is your turn! Run wild with your dreams and wishes, and create some gorgeous outfits to go along with your fantasies! Where are you? What are you doing? What are you wearing? Let us hear every little detail!

I think that quite possibly the majority of my life has been spent in one big daydream. I spend hour upon hour planning my life in the distant future, planning vacations that may not happen, planning outfits that I may never wear, and planning my Oscar acceptance speech.

Because I spend so much time in this fantasy land, I thought it might be fun to somehow incorporate it into Indulgences. I want to paint a picture of the fantasy that I wish I were living at that moment; what I wish I were wearing, where I wish I was, what I wish I was drinking, who I wish I was with, and whatever else comes to mind.

In the same respect, I want all you other daydreamers to do the same. Share your fantasy vacation with me, tell me about how you wish you were playing mini golf with your crush, or how you wish you were skiing in the French Alps and sipping hot chocolate in a lodge.

I want this to be a short escape from reality, not just for me, but for you as well. So please share you daydreams with myself, and everyone else on Indulgences…. and if you are lucky enough to be living your daydream, share that too!!

So, what am I wishing right now?

I wish I was wearing the above outfit, strolling the beach at Coney Island on a hot summer evening in August. In my hand is a huuuuge puff of pink, fluffy cotton candy, and little buzzing gnats are flying around my face. As I walk along the beach the sun starts to set. I wander over to the boardwalk and walk along, stopping to watch a handsome blonde teenager win a stuffed pink elephant for his girlfriend. As day moves into night I get in line to ride the ferris wheel. I claim my seat and stay put. I ride the ferris wheel around and around and around, refusing to get off. The operators continue operating the ride long after the other tourists have left, and I sit in my seat feeling the cooling air against my face. I continue to ride until the cold air makes my face feel numb. I finally vacate the ride, and catch a cab to the hotel were I am staying. I take a hot bath, then slip into bed where I sleep until noon the next day…..

That is what I wish I were doing at this exact moment.

Now it is your turn! Where do you wish you were right now? What do you wish you were wearing? Who do you wish you were with? What foreign country do you wish you were exploring? What do you wish you were seeing/listening to/reading/eating/etc??
