"La vie en rose" - June
“"La vie en rose"
This month we continue our life in color journey focusing on Pink The song “La vie en rose” by Edith Piaf comes to mind! The title essentially means seeing life through rose-tinted glasses. Living with an attitude or outlook of positivity, trying to see beauty in the everyday. It fits so perfectly with our theme of pink jewelry for June. Positive, strong and beautiful.
Thank you for taking this journey with me, I hope you are enjoying it. Happy June
