Oliver Twist

Despite the beautiful sunshine, I think today was on of the coldest so far this winter! Nevertheless today was filled with vintage finds, food and quality time with mom. This outfit was inspired by the Ralph Lauren Spring 2010 show. I love the contrast between the lush texture of fur against the rough/ripped denim and the tailoring of the jacket against the slouchy/sloppy fit of the jeans.

Nothing but blue sky

The snow and clouds from yesterday have left us with beautiful blue skies today. As if making an effort to make up for it's absence, the sun is shining so brightly today that even the bitter cold couldn't keep me inside. So today's color palate is inspired by the bold blue winter sky.

Nature Girl

My computer faces a giant window, so whenever I'm at it (which is most of the time) I get to look at the trees and grass just outside. In particular there is a massive old tree smack dab in the middle of my line of sight. Today's outfit was inspired by the color palate of this tree and the dormant grass behind it. I love the way the soft moss color blends with the browns and black of the dirt at the roots of the tree. I guess this is my version of urban camouflage and it could be that I've spent waaaay to much time staring at this tree!

Sorry for the lack of posts lately, it gets dark waaaaay too (or to?) fast and I haven't been able to get nice shots so perhaps I will start taking outfit pics indoors (better than nothing?).
