Evening Journeys


December 2, 2011
Dear Caitlin,

 
So what else have I been doing lately? Trying to refine my low light photography (I’ll let you know if I ever create a decent formula) and playing with Camera+ on my iPhone 4S. So glad I upgraded my phone instead of getting a new point-and-shoot. The phone was cheaper! And it’s far more useful than just another camera.

I’m wearing my new Simply Vera by Vera Wang for Kohl’s jacket (I’ve been hunting this thing for a month), American Apparel shirt, J.Crew skirt, Assets by Sara Blakely tights, and Born boots.

Double Stripes and Yellow Leaves




Playing with this scarf is fun! It’s very soft and floaty, but still warm. These are some more photos from before, when there were still leaves on the trees and it wasn’t flooding. Sad that it’ll be months and months until the leaves grow back.

I put my hair up for the first time in a while. I actually don’t mind it up, but I do feel like it makes anything I’m wearing about eleventy billion times more formal. What do you think, too much? Although the formal air is not as pronounced when I’m wearing pants. In a dress or skirt, however… I often feel too done.

And yes, that’s a leaf in my hair. I’ve recently been bringing things from outside inside, like pine cones and the wispy tails of tall grass that I find lying on the ground. And somehow that evolved to wearing nature in my hair. I’m a weirdo.

Oh wait, one more thing! I want to share this Feminist Fashion Bloggers post by Ekaterina Sedia. It’s the best piece I’ve read all month.

…and Happy Thanksgiving, U.S. readers!
