🎤IN CHARMAINE’S WORDS...
A couple of weeks ago I opened a package to find a sea of rainbow tulle gently tucked away inside. Just looking at the skirt made me smile from ear to ear, and I almost couldn't wait to put it on.
As hard as it was, I waited until the day of my photo shoot to wear it so I could have the full experience of the skirt all at once.
The second I slipped it on I felt magical, strong, and like the main character of a wonderful story that was just beginning. I floated around The Forks - a major tourist attraction in Winnipeg and my favourite place to be.
It was a sunny day but even the darkest of clouds wouldn't have prevented me from dancing and enjoying my moment.
As people walked by they would smile and offer sweet compliments, making me feel that much more special.
Pairing the rainbow bundle of sunshine with a black tank top made me feel a sense of power. 2020 has been a roller coaster of a year for many of us, and I'd be lying if I said I haven't been affected but this year's events.
But the pairing of black and rainbow reminded me that no matter how much darkness there is in the world or how many personal struggles we face each day, there is always light and love out there for us to embrace and experience. We just have to be willing to see it.
