This is the story of a pair of Blue Sunglasses. Like all good tales – this story has a beginning, a middle and an end. I have decided to tell this story backwards, to start with the end ..for no good reason except that this story has a happy ending and I’d like to start with the happy bit first. This part of the story is the tale of the Return.
Since the colour blue is predominantly tied to boys, I have attributed the male gender to the blue sunglasses character in this story.
The blue sunglasses were weary and tired from all the adventures but had had a chance to rest over the last few days and recover his strength. His adventures had made him famous, he had been featured in pictures across the web and his life had been very exciting. However, he felt sad; he missed her, SHE had not shared in his good fortune, SHE probably still stood on that same shelf waiting for another life, waiting in hope.
The blue sunglasses felt himself being moved – time for another adventure. Off he went, this time around the island of Malta, boats, cars and sun all loomed in front of him and he eagerly drank it all in. After a few hours, the final destination of the day seemed to be approaching and as it loomed ahead in the distance, there was a tug of familiarity, a feeling of deja vu…..he had been here before. That moment was when the blue sunglasses realised that he was being taken back, back to the place* where the story started, back to the place before all the adventures. The blue sunglasses was scared, what if this was the end …what if he was no longer wanted, no longer desired ? As he entered that place he spotted her, there she was, still there, still waiting and then something
incredible happened, blue sunglasses felt himself being removed and put away and he watched as SHE was pulled off the shelf and then suddenly they were leaving…BLUE sunglasses scarcely dared to hope..was SHE to join him ?
That evening blue sunglasses and green sunglasses were reunited, time apart had made them realise their love for each other and they vowed to never be separated again.
*The place in question is Solaris Malta Sliema, No Sunglasses were harmed in he making of this story. BLUE and she-without-a-name are still united and together.
In this part of the story, a pair of animal print BIRKENSTOCKS also get featured – these are a speciality spinoff pair from the division called Papillio, they still have the ultra comfy Birkenstock footbed but super interesting designs (bought from Rome)
A headband from Yana’s jewellery also makes an appearance – check out how pretty it is…perfect for that summer bohemian vibe.
A patched denim skirt also had its first outing…I’m really into this whole patched denim thing, it’s so much fun and adds so much interest to plain denim. IMO, a good denim skirt is a truly wonderful thing to own, it can easily be dressed up with a pair of high heels or dressed down with flats ..a smart top makes it suitable for a more formal outing whilst a plain t-shirt is great for a relaxed look.
