For me, fashion has really always been about personal style and a way of expressing myself and growing in confidence. Back when I started to develop my personal style I didn’t have a lot of confidence, so it’s not surprising that as I get more comfortable in my own skin my style has become both more repetitive and more outlandish. I mean, so many of my outfits lately have the same feeling and I love repeating clothes, but those outfits also toe the line towards a fairytale character. I've figured out what I like and I've learned to embrace it. If you were privy to my bookshelf growing up or observed the sheer volume of hours I spent escaping into fictional realms it wouldn’t be surprise to find that now I’m in love with long, flowing dresses and the occasional cape! I’ve often loved the aesthetics of capes by shied away from wearing them as they are so outlandish, but this year I feel much more confident dressing like a hobbit! So I was very excited when Nour & the Merchant sent me their Hazel cape in “robin hood” green (it also comes in the sweetest pumpkin shade and deep red-burgundy. This cape isn’t just a fun fashion statement, it is built for real warmth. The outside is a thick wool and the inside is lined with velvet, making it incredibly soft and warm to wear; a completely functional piece of outwear that will be keeping me cozy through these ripening autumn days.









You look gorgeous! Thanks for sharing! ❤️✨

Solomon is at a size where he looks not only larger than you, but like he's of different proportions! He definitely seems like the perfect companion for a fairy tale heroine.
ReplyDeleteI would posit that capes seem quite normal and appropriate for your climate. Not outlandish at all, all things considered. :)
ReplyDeleteYour doggy is glorious! It is a treat to watch him grow.
Beautiful! I am so surprised at how large Solomon has gotten in a year!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how tall Solomon is now! ♥ You can definitely see he's still a pup at heart though!

I love the pics of you and Solomon!! So precious :-)
ReplyDeleteRebecca, I like the new way you have been styling your bangs! I have noticed it these past few posts and I think it looks really pretty on you. It is softer and more romantic than just straight--though that way was lovely too of course.
ReplyDeleteaw thank you! I had to grow them out a bit to get them long enough for this style, but I've really liked the look too! I did a wee tutorial on how I style them for Patreon :)
