It's funny how we celebrate all these leaf-y deaths each fall; playing in their mass graves and gleefully crunching them underfoot. We have no respect for the colorful corpses--making them unwilling models in so many photographs. But the beauty they cast with their last breaths is undeniable...
Outfit details:
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.
Such lovely colors!
ReplyDeleteGreat autumn outfit. I'm jealous of your scenery. We lost our fall this year thanks to that random blizzard in October. Sigh...
ReplyDeleteThat dress is so so cute! I adore the colors. Oh my gosh. And those leaves! Eeep. xo, rv

Beautiful dress!
ReplyDeleteI love your new hair doo, this dress is so pretty you look like a little doll :)
ReplyDeleteit's just all part of the circle. striking photos rebecca. lovely dress!
ReplyDeleteMuch as I enjoy your sense of fashion and your uber cute self (despite the recent Sinead O’Conner cut), what I really like about your blog is the literary allusions in the captions. Hunting down the ones I do not recognize is more fun than the Sunday Times crossword puzzle. However, I must admit that today’s caption has me stumped. Any hints?
ReplyDeleteOh my it's the loveliest dress! Reminds me of pretty tapestry bags! I had to check out ASOS immediately!

Brocade makes me think of a Victorian gown. I love the fall leaves in these pics.
ReplyDeleteI love love love that dress.
ReplyDeleteAs for the leaves... nature's just getting a haircut, they'll all be back next spring. Though it's a slightly less romantic way to think about it... : )
I've gotta say, this dress you're wearing is drving me crazy with all its gorgeousness!! Actually, I love EVERYTHING about this look, dress, tights, shoes, the colour of these tights!!! I can find nothing like that in my country. LOVELY!
ReplyDeleteI really love your dress and the whole look. Your new hair style looks great with these dresses so feminine.
ReplyDeleteI put some dead leaves from different trees in simple wooden frames to decorate my room.. love dead leaves :)

What you write is so true and profound. I love the look of leaves, especially in photos, but it is a bit creepy, isn't it? I LOVE this carpet patterned dress on you! Just lovely!
ReplyDeleteI think it's so strange that the season I and so many enjoy most is the season in which everything fades and dies...
ReplyDeleteYou match the pretty, fallen leaves so well. :)

This dress is just perfect:) And looove colors:)
ReplyDeleteI love it, your outfit is so awesome and quirky!! Hope you do not take this the wrong way but you look like the actress Carey Mulligan. Did she somewhat inspire you to get your pixie cut?
ReplyDeleteThis dress is so perfect for playing around in the leave's "mass graves". You look gorgeous (though your shoes look a tad damp).
ReplyDeleteyour new haircut is so cute! and you match the leaves perfectly

@Anonymous, I love Carey Mulligan, but no she didn't really inspire the cut. I just wanted a change so I chopped it off and the pics I took to my hairdresser were actually of Mia Masikowska. :)
ReplyDeletegreat colours one of my fave outfits i love it!

I want to LIVE in brocade dresses! I actually just got one custom-made and I can't wait to wear it during the holidays! (:
