Last year when I moved out to Washington State after college I could not find my father's old maroon beret which he had given to me. When we moved to Virginia this summer I suddenly discovered the beret again...and seem to have lost my yellow knit cap from H&M. That seems to be the way of moves: one thing disappears and another reappears. Perhaps when I move next that cap will re-emerge and something else will mysteriously vanish.
It's finally beginning to feel like fall here in Virginia and just in time I received an awesome package of tights from Tabio. One of my favorite new pairs has to be this awesome thick grey pair; it's a 210 denier and so cozy for the cooler weather. I officially want a pair in every color. As much as I love fun and interesting tights, it's really great to have basics in neutrals for everyday wear.
P.S. This is the dress I featured in the remix post earlier this week; I told you it was a favorite!

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 normally don't like tights with open toed shoes, but I love this entire outfit SO much!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely cute outfit !
ReplyDeleteI love the way these shoes look with grey tights !
Oh that dress is so perfect! I can see why you like it so much :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I love those tights/have been looking for good thick knit pairs for ages, so I may have to get some of my own!
You inspire me to want to dress well! I always love your outfits, your style is amazing. Also, I love your hair. I miss the days when I had red hair.

Definitely a great hat! I have one which I lose all the time: it will disappear for a year or more and then someone will bring it to me asking if it's mine. I have no idea where it is now... perhaps with my parents' move it will resurface. But I'm sure many many things will disappear...
ReplyDeleteI love this! Perfect for fall :)

ReplyDeleteI'm obsessed with your booties.
ReplyDeleteomg rebecca you look like a doll in that last picture.
ReplyDeletei just had to say: i think my dad has the EXACT same maroon beret...or, if not, at least one that is very similar. he won't give it to me, though; he likes it too much :)
I like this outfit!!!
ReplyDeleteI love everything about this outfit! Ps- I sent you an email about sponsoring/ads on your blog, hope to get a response soon.:)
ReplyDelete@Elle, was your father in the army? That's where my dad got his (they switched all the army berets to black now, but they used to have different colors for different divisions; ergo he no longer needs his old ones b/c they're the wrong color). :)
ReplyDelete@Anonymous, I usually respond to e-mails within 48 hours...if I haven't gotten back to you in that time I suggest writing again b/c it's probably gone missing (spam folder?). Sorry!
this outfit is breathtaking. as are the surroundings!! so pretty. loving your blog.
ReplyDeleteand the puppy above is too cute.

ReplyDeleteI move a lot and one of my favorite things about packing/unpacking is rediscovering all of the amazing trinkets I've forgotten about.

I split my time between my parents' house, my dorm, and my boyfriend's family's house, so I always feel like I'm losing track of things! I can't imagine actually moving house as much as you do. I love the beret, and I'm glad it turned up!
ReplyDeleteThat dress is so darling and it fits you perfectly :)
