A blog about a mother, her clothes, her daughter, and healing from loss.

Day 153

August 22, 2014

Terry Lilly

Aaaahh, nothing says summer more than a visit to the beautiful Lawrence beach Club. It truly is a magical place, and I will be very sad when the time comes to say goodbye to those visits. But as my husband so sweetly said to me: "then we will go make new memories, in new places" I know he is right, but It will still be a bitter pill to swallow. Maybe we will have one more summer, maybe not. In the meantime, I will take each day as it comes.

This Blog comes from the heart and mind, (but mostly from the heart), of Amy Sklar, interior designer, mother, daughter, foodie, and lover of fashion.

I must admit, the driving force behind this blog was my need to somehow, some way, create a tribute to my dear mother Carole Lawrence. She was a great beauty, chef, friend and mother. Sadly, I lost her to cancer February 23rd 2013. Since beginning on February 23rd 2014 it has been my goal to wear a piece of her clothing, jewelry, or an accessory that she passed on to me, for a total of 365 days (Not in a row, sorry, I am also a mother of two, a small business owner, wife and friend. I tried to do it in a row, and it almost broke me.) I believe it is a fitting tribute to this incredible woman with the greatest sense of style I've ever known. A digital archive, a love letter, a journal, a remeberance for your children and future generations. I love you mom.
