It's funny how collegiate and uniform-inspired this outfit seems when I didn't even style it that way intentionally. I dress more like a student now than I did while I actually was one. But pleated skirts and cardigans like this one have endless appeal. The convenience of a backpack is also sweet when you're climbing around on rocks down by the water.
Outfit details:
vintage cardigan
Dear Creatures dress
secondhand shoes
Rebecca Minkoff backpack
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.
That's a really pretty look, and your short hair makes the whole ensemble look cute!

It's interesting how this outfit look like a college student from the side. But from the front, you look so classy.

These pictures are really beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe cut of the cardi is more blazer-like to me, rather than collegiate. I honestly feel like you dress more professional and mature and sophisticated now than you did while you were at school. At school you were more experimental with your shoots and your outfits, but there was this young, girlish element to them, and you're much more lady-like and grown up now.
ReplyDeleteI love both styles, but you know I adore you regardless of what you wear.

ReplyDeleteThis sunset looks unreal. So beautiful there!
ReplyDeleteits funny because i would say the college students i know dress horridly for the most part. you look completely adorable and even more schoolgirl with the hairstyle
ReplyDeleteThat first photograph is stunning. I do love that backpack.
ReplyDeleteI love your outfit, the cardigan has such a beautiful color (but I guess I'd already commented that once). The colors of the sunset on the lake are also beautiful, looks like a perfect calm evening.
