Tomorrow I will post my second cbt-project video, but I just wanted to share a story in advance.

Last week one of my aunts passed away and that weighs truly heavy on my whole family. I spent nearly every summer with her as we share summer houses.

By complete coincidence I chose to wear one of her creations for this particular video. That marvelous shirt! She was indeed a genious by the sewing machine. I mean, just take a close look at those puff-sleves!

She was always so elegant, so sparkling, colourful and exraordinary. She loved fashion, coats, hats, and her nails were most often a really bold shade of cherry. A true queen up till the day she passed away.

In that sense she was a rolemodel with the message, that no matter how old you are, you can always carry yourself just as you please. You can always express yourself in any way, shape or shade that you want. Enjoy your expression and have fun with it! Dare to stand out!

That is something I will carry along as her legacy to me. As I can often try to melt into the background out of fear what others might think. I will try to do that no more. I will try to channel her queen-aura as often as I need from now on. And not be afraid to stand out.


Make sure to love and cherish eachother out there. Life is so short and the people we share it with are so precious.
