My friend Sharon Beesley broke my heart for years when he moved from New York City to Guilford, Connecticut. But! She and her family prospered: she built a therapy practice and her children moved from school secondary school to high school and, now, to university. Sharon and her husband Rob (whom mom and wicked through my divorce) are new empty nests. Here, Sharon shares five attire that he had in a week, including saved dresses, gardening monkeys and his favorite swimsuit …
Dress: Savings. Hair clips: French combs. Shoes: Comfortive.
“Advance almost all my clothes, including this dress. My reference store for anything special is Vintanthro in New Haven. Remember who I am, they know my children. They will be like, tell us about their next event! It is an experience of buying the old school, where they take things and accessories, and are so excited by me.”
“Then there is goodwill. You may not go out with anything, and you have to do it regularly. I go at least once a week with my children. These days I like ancient sweatshirts and short -sleeved buttons, so I will go to those sections because otherwise it can be overwhelming. It also depends on where I live, I am lucky because I live in Connecticut and the good and the good ones are good here.” “
Tank: similar. Skirt: similar.
“These days, for my hair, I am doing all the shower, I keep you, and I don’t tend-touch-it-and-in-perfect-hair-by-living-a-prop-5-in-styling-treatment. It feels like a movement at this time.”
“Being a therapist is a good job. There is something in listening to someone’s story for a full hour; I don’t think we can do that much in life. I try to understand exactly what each person says. If they say the word ‘strange’ or ‘that they know what I want to say,’ I will press to make sure that I understand it correctly and do not make them make them careful with my children who do not want you to feel that they feel that they feel like they always feel a session. of therapy or do you want it to be a mother right now?
TEE: Savings. Everlys: Thifted, “Dedyed my son, are the best children who are up to the height,” similar. Sneakers: Converse.
“I have a bee tattoo. First, because my last name is’ Beesley”, and also because I went through a transition period, where I went from being a Mormon unless it was a Mormon and being a mother who stays at home to attend the graduation school for therapy. He had many feelings about how the Mormon woman cannot have higher leadership roles, while bee hives are matriarchal. A few days before starting in Columbia, I had a few hours before I had to pick up my school children. There are a million places of tattoo in New York, so I chose one and get it. It was an emotion. The only problem with the tattoo is that it is on each pillow from TJ Maxx to Michaels. “
“When I was a child, I was obsessed with gymnastics, and then I didn’t have an obsession for a long time, and now the gardening has filled that space. My favorite things are watching gardening shows, reading gardening books, thinking about my garden, planting my garden and seeing my garden grow. My flowers cover the front courty Wildflowers in the suburbs! or drive more slowly as they pass.
Tank: Old Navy. Leggings: Old Navy. Sneakers: Nike. Dog: “Pluto, the love of my life.”
“I have a gap between my front teeth. Over the years, I have spent thousands of dollars trying to fix it: Invisalign, orthopedic devices, porcelain veneers, temporary retainers, a permanent retainer, and finally, I realized that I am no longer fighting this. It only took me 40 years to adopt it, but now I love my gap.”
“Vintage training clothes is difficult to find, so I buy them new. Old Navy has done such a good job: the style is so pleasant, the attacks are great and the colors are great.”
“I do Orangeheory. Turn off taking a 50 -minute weightlifting class and a 60 -minute body class. I have taken 1,000 classes, and my husband asked me the other day: ‘So, does it become easier? Is it fun?’ And it was like, not every time, I can’t wait for it to end.
Swimsuit: anemos. Skirt: saved, similar.
“My clothing budget is usually $ 5 to $ 10, but I waste in this swimsuit. I love the back and I could not find another version anywhere. I use it to swim, and then I will use it as a top with a skirt, jeans, nothing.”
“My three children have just gone to university, and I don’t know how I will feel like a noticeable. I married at age 21 and I had my first child at age 23, so I have never been an adult without children at home. I am excited to see how it is.
Thank you very much, Sharon! You are the best.
PD: More people share their weeks of outfits, including a cardiologist who loves the color, a seller who strands his father and a mother with a child and house shoes.
