It’s Friday! Birthdays: Jean Harlow, Ira Glass. RIP Wayne Shorter. It’s also World Wildlife Day, and the 2023 theme is Partnerships for Wildlife Conservation. Our community project for today: wear a fragrance from a brand making an effort in the arena of biodiversity protection (you should have plenty of choice).
What fragrance did you pick? As always, do chime in with your scent of the day even if you’re not participating in the community project.
I’m in vintage Yves Saint Laurent Paris, and taking points for YSL’s Rewild Our Earth program.
Reminder: 3/10 will be Time Travel Friday…be as creative as you like with the theme. You could wear a perfume that reminds you of a trip you once took, or that brings you back to a prior period of your life for any reason, or that calls to mind a place you’d like to visit in the past or future.
And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2023, where I’ll try (but obviously sometimes fail) to always have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.
