My friend who was visiting last week has flown back across the country. Her absence and miserable, grey weather have left me with little desire to venture far outdoors. This week I have not explored much, but have chosen to hole myself up in my room with the music blasting and a pile of books to devour. As much as I am an independent person, I do occasionally enjoy the company of someone I know well to encourage me towards new frontiers. It is one thing to discover an abandoned shack in the woods and another entirely to stumble upon it while with a friend...
P.S. If you like vintage check out Mother's Daughter. It's a new amazingly, curated online shop and it's where my dress is from.
Outfit details:
H&M hat
UO jacket

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.
I've just recently entered into the blog world but I've been a fan of your blog and style for awhile and now a follower :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet outfit! Exploring this with friends is surely a lot of fun ♥
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures, that dress is so sweet!
ReplyDeleteI especially like that last picture, it looks so dreamy and almost ghostlike.
I so love those shoes!
ReplyDeleteI love that you are not afraid to get on the ground for your photos. It always seems like a good idea but ultimately the spiders get the best of me and I get to afraid.
ReplyDeleteQuite lovely!
This outfit is so eclectic and comfy looking. I love that hat. I kind of like how in our climates we can still wear tights and hats and stuff even in summer. I feel like I have a lot more latitude in what I wear.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures! You're so sweet especially in the first one :) x
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing like new adventures with an old friend.
ReplyDeleteThat dress!! I am headed over to Mother's Daughter to blow my paycheck. :)
these ar wonderful :)

i'm with delightfully tacky- our climate gives us the ability to layer- creating one outfit at one point in the day, and another when we molt. i still haven't put away sweaters, and tights are a must when it's still this chilly! so whimsy to see you 'dreaming' in the grass... keep up the good stuff!
ReplyDeleteAww sorry to hear about that, I totally sympathize. Adventures (or even random, everyday things) really are more fun when you have someone to share them with! Still, you are looking lovely as ever in these photos Rebecca. I always love your lying-on-the-grass pics. (:
ReplyDeletePretty photos and a lovely outfit.

I love that knit hat! It looks like a hand knit so I was surprised to see it was from H&M. So cute!
ReplyDeleteyour outfits are always so cute. Love this yellow hat.
ReplyDeleteI just noticed your at ft lewis, I'm dying for my husband to get stationed there :)
you are so cute on the first pic, the eyes! :))
ReplyDeleteIf I was to lay in the grass like that down here, I'd get mud all over me. It must be nice to have dry grass, haha! Pretty photos. :D
ReplyDeleteI know how grey weather can get a person down -- anyway, you look adorable. I love the bright pop of yellow...

Such a great outfit. I love the way you dress.SarahD

I love how dark your hair looks :) This outfit is great for Spring or fall. It is funny how you can layer and look cute, but by me it is 80 outside and everyone looks like they are melting. :P
ReplyDeleteIm sorry your friend sick =( You should try skype ;) I love your dress and Im on my way to check out Mothers Daughter!

That dress? Made of win.
ReplyDeleteGreat outfit, and I completely understand what you mean. I would kind of be too scared to explore an abandoned shack if I was alone.
ReplyDeleteGreat dress. Love the splashes of mustard and brick brown.

Oh, this outfit is fabulous. I would happily give it a new home on me. That dress is so cool. Will go check that shop out asap.
ReplyDeleteoh, and this may be of interest (to you and your sponsors) but whenever I am looking for vintage clothes online or other new shops to check out I always come here and peruse your sponsor links. Really. It is much easier than searching through all the dross!
Not only do I love your outfit, I am so impressed by your photo-taking skills! That last one especially seems mighty difficult to take with only a tripod.
ReplyDeleteWowo, you are so lovely!
ReplyDeleteMarika

ReplyDeleteYour outfit is so cute! i love that dress! I agree, exploring with a friend is way better!
ReplyDeleteI love these shots! They belong in a movie and your bag and shoes are perfect!!
ReplyDeletei love the contrast between your red lipstick, brown hair and the mustard yellow beanie.
ReplyDeleteand I know what you mean. it is maybe not always but a nice feeling to have a close friend to explore new places with.
Rebecca, you seem to be quite a fan of Emily Dickinson! Except from what you publish here, I've never read anything she wrote and I would like to change that. Is there a particular book you would recomend for a newbie like myself? I'd be forever greatfull! x)
ReplyDeletelove the striped and buttons in your dress!!! your photos are always so charming! :D

ReplyDeleteI love how the colour of your hat matches wIth the shoes!
ReplyDeleteI am the same way. I love my time alone, but I always feel that twinge of loneliness when a friend leave for their home.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I adore the third picture. I love how you always work some creative photography into your posts.
You look lovely and so comfortable lazin' around in the grass :) But you're in Washington so... asn't the grass all wet?!??! I like how your mustard-colored hat brings out the subtle little yellow blossoms here and there...
ReplyDeleteWhat books have you been reading?
Yes, there is something about exploration by oneself. It's kind of frightening and intimidating, but also freeing.
ReplyDeleteI found an old ramshackle of an old shed that was part of a crumbling estate house locked in the woods with no apparent driveway... the shed was far off from the estate house so it took me awhile to realize there actually was a house it was associated with rather than being some enchanted, broken down cabin of yesteryear.
Sometimes, I'd rather be inside, anyway.
I love that dress.
If you're ever interested in selling it, please let me know before you list it! I believe you and I are the same size. I'd snatch it up in a second.
XX.
