S to S, take ‘22

I posted a similar “SPR to SMR Edit” last year when I thought “I will soon enough get TF off this rollator and feel human again”. At the time I had semi-movement and feeling in both of my legs, now a year later, I am wheelchair bound, numbness from my knees to my toes in both legs and no sense of movement in either (working on strengthening the muscles in my hips).

A LOT has also continously developed since last year and I am becoming more accessibility conscious when it comes to my wardrobe (what to where when, according to temperature, and mood). Currently, I am in graduate school, working on a few projects, (that I’m behind on 😭), and working on redeveloping this body to be strengthened enough to lift and move itself again—tough business 😮‍💨.

👆🏾 Mmm…I’m also heat intolerant, due to MS and simply not that interested in Florida’s die-hard humidity and the current administration’s failure to acknowledge climate change 🤫. We visited Orlando for The Husband’s work and to “give me a scenary view from those normal four-walls” to power me through the rest of the ending spring semester 👏🏾 😩.

So 🤗, we went to some restaurants and shops, and I of course dressed per the events at hand. Taking my symptoms into evaluation, I came to these looks, I’m going for light upper wear, think silk dresses, elevated basic tanks and camis with layered Catbird neck gems, 14K rings, bracelet, anklets, and gold-toned accessories which can be paired with a laced cami as a top— 🔥disabilababe all season long OR sinplicity for a relaxed fit 😉.

Length❗️, I’m currently working with orthotics and dermatology. I’ll break it down, (1) orthotics to assist in getting my legs in proper alignment. They have been hanging all over the place since their dysfunction almost a year ago—👆🏾yea, I’m fixing this. So I am now wearing two (2) braces to assist in elevating both of my feet now that I found I have drop-foot in both 🙄. I mourned. THEN (2) I’m fixing the burn marks reference “FREE these legs” so my dermatologist’s products require sun sensitivity, at all times👌🏾, reference my “cost per wear” Joah Brown Body Con, an elevated basic.

Sidenote: I was stuck on getting a “leopard Brandon Blackwood 💅🏾.” Failure happened 🙄 🤷🏾‍♀️ 😩, so I felt it to be the fashion Gawds (to include Virgil Abloh, Andre Leon Talley, Grace Jones, Et al.) that I found the perfect “tucked” size bag for my casual days and date night outs for the moment. It holds right under the arm 🥰, my phone, wallet card holder, day or night essentials all fit in and the bag has a zíper to seal the contents of the inside.

Deniem bottom are the perfect coverage for the gals, and they also have a baggy-fit so I’m not sucked tight (well, it depends) with a body suit or tee: Above, I wore my Girls ❤️.

DeLoris would stay up waiting for me to get off my second-job during college 😮‍💨, and we would sit up on the phone, watch the “Golden Girls,” and chat like girlfriends catching up on each other’s day and her history.
