What I Wore | Country Rose

WhatIWore: Lately I’ve been getting up early and heading to a coffee shop before the sun rises so I can have some focused time to work on my blog while Adam watches the kids. Trust me when I tell you that when I have a chance to roll solo, I make the most of it, including getting ready and putting on a proper outfit. This is what I wore earlier this week - a combo of two investment pieces that I’m so excited to wear this fall. You saw this Free People dress on the blog a couple weeks ago here and then I styled this suede jacket over a sundress last week here. Together they’re bringing all the fall vibes! Gimme a pumpkin spiced latte NOW! 

When: October 1, 2017

What:
Shades: Karen Walker
Suede Jacket: BlankNYC
Dress: Free People (on sale for small sizes here) (three colorways here)
Boots: Frye (older style)

Where: Work session, errands with the kids!

What I Wore | Handicrafts

WhatIWore: I did it! I finally finished my fall striped sweater and got to wear it last week. My color palette came from my 70s Art Teacher inspiration boards including black, cream, charcoal, a heathered rusty cinnamon red and a lighter shade of navy. It’s going to look great with denim and black pants and hopefully the rust colored trousers I want to make soon.  I will type up the details for Ravelry when I get a chance!

For this outfit, I wanted to lean a little more modern and slightly Parisian. The hair and red lip achieve the French feel and the white moto jacket keeps the look from being too stuck in the past. I do think it’ll look cute styled in a more seventies way - with with a leather skirt and boots?
