I feel as if I am on a wee bit of a "red streak" and Modcloth ably fed my desire for the color with these awesome, ribbed tights. Despite cold, grey weather the thickness of the tights is keeping me warm and seemed a fitting pairing to my new nautical dress. The dress is very lightweight and clearly meant for a warmer season, but when I receive new things I have no patience to wait!
My favorite new item in my most recent Modcloth package? This little racing time necklace that has once and for all replaced my need of a watch. I am attempting to collect horse related things; namely in jewelry since moving a lot makes knick-knack collecting inconvenient. However, it is slow going since horse figures aren't that common (unlike bunnies or birds) and even so it is hard for me to find one I really like. This one is in gold and tells the time? Perfection...

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.
Hi :) Your outfits are stunning, I personally love all your dresses. Where did you find them? Why Washington isn't suffering of snow at all?:) Here, in Poland we are addicted to winter jackets and it makes me upset;) Ciao :)
ReplyDeleteAh, this dress! How can I express how much I love it? You truly make outfits your own, and speak through the clothing, versus letting the clothing speak for you.
ReplyDeleteI totally adore the cute sailor dress.
ReplyDeletei'm really in to horse related things too at the moment but mainly in the form of clothes - but that necklace is so rad!
ReplyDeleteToo cute! I'm especially in love with your jacket. And your tights. But then again, I always love your tights :)
ReplyDeletesuper cute outfit, the necklace is fab but i especially love the dress :)
ReplyDelete(& also a thank you for the inspiration on picture an hour)
I like these strong colors matched with the muted tones of the jacket and the bag, lovely! Merry Xmas! see you in 2010!
ReplyDeleteVery cute outfit! Especially the dress! I have been debating for some time now whether I should get it or not, haha ^.^ But since you mentioned it is really light weight maybe I should hold off until warmer weather...
ReplyDeleteI have a little sailor dress waiting for me in a package when I go home to my parents house this week, I cant wait! you look so cute! for some reason, I have loving the red white and blue combinations too
ReplyDeleteI was actually considering ordering that dress! It looks amazing on you :)

ReplyDeletethat necklace fits you well. :D Love all the colors in your outfit! your jacket and bag are a nice touch. sort of eases all that visual intensity. :) It's so hard for me to even find color in my closet...I'm sort of putting a ban on black and gray now, heh.
ReplyDeleteI really like this outfit, gives me some ideas for colored tights. I usually stick to black-kinda boring-but I am very intrigued by the bright ones. It's great that they are warm too,I need to invest in good ones because MI winters are really cold. =]

ReplyDeleteSuch a perfect nautical outfit. The blue dress is too nice to save until a warmer season. And that's a pretty awesome horse necklace! I've been wanting a watch necklace myself.
ReplyDeleteYou hair and make up has been looking FINE lately. I was coveting that dress for ages and kept wondering how it would look on me. It looks brilliant on you & your racing horses clock necklace is really cool! I'm so glad you bought it. I have a silver penguin clock necklace & I think I'll pull it out for a photoshoot soon.
