The Petite Philosopher

Thirty One.

“About astrology and palmistry: they are good because they make people vivid and full of possibilities. They are communism at its best. Everybody has a birthday and almost everybody has a palm.” – Kurt Vonnegut

Every year for my birthday weekend my husband and I have a tradition of going to Franklin Cider Mill in Michigan and then shopping at my favourite mall, The Somerset Collection. Before venturing out, my husband and I had breakfast in Detroit. Now, if you know me, you know I have a deep admiration for Detroit. Not only is the restaurant scene amazing, but there is so much to see and do. I love that great food, scenery, music, shopping and more, and it’s only minutes away from the quiet street I live on in Windsor.

For our day out in Detroit (and surrounding area) I decided to wear a new dress in my favourite colour for fall, dark red. I also paired it with the most comfortable booties, a classic scarf, and my birthday gift – a Celine vertical cabas tote. The weather has been so beautiful lately that I haven’t even had to break out my black nylons!

Needless to say, I had a wonderful birthday, and I look forward to seeing what my 31st year on this planet will bring!
