You fell back to sleep and I began to read those mysterious parts you used to guess at while they were being written and lose interest in after they became part of the story. In one of them cold dresses of moonlight are draped over the chairs in a man's room. He dreams of a woman whose dresses are lost, who sits in a garden and waits. She believes that love is a sacrifice. The part describes her death and she is never named, which is one of the things you could not stand about her. -Mark Strand (excerpt from “the story of our lives”) Sometimes I visit my past self just to remember the way it was before I met who I am now. . . . . . #womenwhowearhats #highhatcouture #wintervibes #vintage #vintageisbetter #poemoftheday #somethingiforgot #mymanyhats #backintime #1940s #1940sfashion #1940shat #hats #chapeau #chapeaux #hatlover #vintagehats #blackandwhitephotography #tilthat #classy #stringofpearls #goodnight #artist #millinery #thestoryofourlives #deadquiet #snowdays #oldphotos #vintageclothing #vintagestyle https://www.instagram.com/highhatcouture/p/CYa8u1ogiz4/?utm_medium=tumblr
