The Petite Philosopher

Maiden Lane.

“We were born to unite with our fellow men, and to join in community with the human race.” – Cicero

When my husband and I went downtown to take some pictures and do a little record shopping, we were stopped by a group of friendly people as we passed through Maiden Lane. A woman asked if we would be models, as she is part of a group of locals who get together to practice their photography skills. Of course I was up for it, as my husband and I were going to take pictures anyway. Besides that, I thought it was so wonderful to see members of our Windsor community working together. Even though we didn’t know each other, we were willing to help each other out. Sometimes I feel Windsor has a bad reputation, but it’s moments like this that I’m reminded that our city is filled with such kind people.

The days are certainly a lot colder than they were, so layers are important when dressing for the outdoors. To mix it up, instead of wearing a jacket, I chose to pair my dress with a chunkier cardigan. Being petite, well fitting coats and jackets are the hardest clothing items to find, so it’s always fun for me to experiment with different ways to keep warm on cooler days.
