Tranquility DeJure, October 19th, 2008.

Bonjour.

Welcome to the 138th edition of Tranquility DeJure, a guide to bringing tranquility to your everyday, formerly known as Hip Trankle Chick.

Learn more about why I made this change in my blog, Kimberlywilson.com slash blog.

Today's show menu features happenings, what's going on in our community, and musings with this lovely author, Alana Simmons, on Life of One's Own, based on the work of Virginia

Wolf. Workshops and retreats. This weekend, I'm heading to lead the fall foliage retreat. It's an

annual retreat I do down in central Virginia. Beautiful space. We have a couple dorm spaces left.

If you've been debating coming,

we'd love to have you. And then also we've got all sorts of fundings coming up in D.C.,

those of you who are local, including a workshop at the Tranquility Showroom on growing your craft

to business. I'll be in Denver in January and Montreal in March and North Carolina in February.

Also, we've got a full day focusing on creating your 2009, and that's at our second annual New Year's Gala,

a weekend of tranquility and creativity at our third annual Hip, tranquil Chick retreat,

and a lovely farmhouse not far from New York City,

March 27 through the 29th.

And another week at Krapaloo in case you want to mark your calendars for August of 2009.

All this information is at Kimberly Wilson.com.

Featured Eco Lux Tranquility piece.

It's our all-in-one wrap dress.

I wore this last week to a wedding.

I wore it again to our gala for the foundation, our nonprofit this week.

And I find this piece to be just to be phenomenal.
