In honor of the new year and memory of the old, I thought I'd do one picture/outfit from every month this year...this proved to be far easier in conception than reality. When you have such a keen record of the days it is hard to pick favorites. I tend to not compare outfits or even stylings of specific pieces; how can you really rank such things and say one is better than the other?
Regardless of my qualms, I ultimately did prepare such a succinct post, but I limited myself to two or three images per month. So, here's a little flashback for you all...it has been a busy year, no?
January
February
March
April
May
June
July
August
September
October
November
December
Welcome to my little blog that blends a bit of nature, fashion, wanderings, and books in this dusty corner of the Internet. I hope you find it a moment of quiet in the wild today.
Your such an inspiration to all! Keep writing and doing your amazing photography! We are all in an awe of your art :)

This was great. I just did a "year in photos" post on my blog and had so much trouble limiting the amount of photos I posted for each month, haha. I wanted to post them all!
ReplyDeleteLove the idea; wow it feels weird to think a year has passed so quickly and slowly at the same time.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love that song by Regina Spektor =)
love all the outfits. But I really love your jan. peach dress and the floral dress in may. :)
ReplyDeleteLove all your outfits!! You lok stunning in all of them!

ReplyDeletesoooo pretty! do you miss that brick wall sometimes (i figure it must be from your college!)?
ReplyDeletei think my personal favorite is the picture of you in the field of yellow flowers.
They're all beautiful and are a wonderful representation of the sweetness that all of your photos have.

ReplyDeleteyour photos remind me of an Andrew Wyeth painting, the ones in the field more specifically "Christina's World". They're always so creamy! The first one from June is amazing- all those poppy colors!
ReplyDeleteYou're a very talented photographer, and I love your outfits. October pictures are for sure my favourites!

ReplyDeleteI picked you for the best blog award!
http://hipmom2b.blogspot.com/2010/01/best-blog-awards.html
Your photos are truly amazing. You should make a 2010 goal to publish a photography book. "Self Portraits of a Clothes Horse" I'd buy it!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Rebecca!
absolutely amazing outfits and styling!! just gorgeous!
ReplyDeletelooks like a fabulous year, non?!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are having a lovely holiday season. thanks for sharing your incredible style and gorgeous photos with us!

I am finally starting to style blog but I've been stalking your site in my reader for a few weeks. Your style is so effortless but still put together. I've definitely drawn inspiration from more than one of your posts. Keep 'em coming, I can't wait to read even more!
ReplyDeleteI love how fun & independent your style is, it's really inspirational. You're so pretty! And I love your blog, adding you to my links ASAP :).
ReplyDeleteI think these are so lovely! You're just so talented. To Anon @ 9.22 -- uh, this is an outfit blog. Pictures of her are kind of the point. And, well, I'm just so tired of that "vanity" argument. EVERYTHING EVERYONE DOES is on some level vain, self-serving and out of a gross need to compensate. The smallest amount of introspection does indeed reveal this to be true...
ReplyDeleteUgh, haters are terrible.
But good cheer to you, Clothes Horse!

So many pretty dresses! Happy New Year, living doll!
ReplyDeletebeautiful. lovely work.

Sych beautiful recap of your blog in 2009! I can't wait to see more fab outfits from you in the new year:)
ReplyDeleteYou go girl!
Absolutely loved looking back on all of your photos, as I started following your blog in the summer. You've been such a huge inspiration to me and as I said in that email right before I started my blog, you helped me step out of my comfort zone and go for it. I wish you the best for 2010 and can't wait to see your wonderful outfits!
ReplyDeleteit has certainly been a fantastic year for you! can't wait to see what's in store for 2010 from you :)
ReplyDeleteFancy Pants
Great post! Love your style! <3
ReplyDeleteWith every month I found myself thinking "Oh now that's gotta be my fave" Lol.
ReplyDeleteI love the juxtaposition of your puppy & the stuffed pony in January.
The photo of you on the grass in May is such a treat.
The yellow flowers around you in June frame that shot so perfectly.
Your first dress in October is one of my favourites on you.
But the autumn leaves photo in December takes the cake. It's perfect & so is your blog.
Thank you for sharing yourself with the world Rebecca xx
Happy New Year!
I love seeing your favorites from the year, all in one place. You are such an inspiration, for both fashion and photography. I hope that 2010 is even better for all of us. Happy New Year, Rebecca!
ReplyDeleteawesome post and such a gorgeous collection of images. The only problem is, now I'm going to spend all night trawling through your achives to find out more about posts I've missed! x Happy new year!
ReplyDeleteHi Rebecca!
ReplyDeleteFabulous year-in-review post. I just realized now that even though I've been a daily reader of your site for a couple years now, I don't believe I've ever said hello! I've always found your aesthetic, your photography and your love for arts, literature and nature to be an endless source of inspiration.
So now I've said so.
Much love,
Sar

a great recap - happy new year to you!
ReplyDeleteOh, it's so hard to pick favorites! I had the same struggle and limited myself to 12 outfit photos. I think my favorite of yours is the one from May in the woods, overlooking the water; you look like you're in an enchanted forest. You should definitely work in fashion photography!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images...lovely blog! happy 2010!
