Oh look, I completely and utterly match my surroundings. It wasn't really planned -- I only decided to go to the trail at the last minute. My usual spots at the dock and the shoreline were taken over the whole time, so I snuck some photos in the more woodsy spots.
Moving has made me realize how much I own, and I've made it my goal this September to remix as much as I can with some separates and accessories. As the warm weather rose this summer, my laziness increased and I haven't gotten as creative. And because I didn't experiment, I'd get bored with my simple dress outfits, and find gratification by buying a cheap bauble here and there, and then never find a way to wear it. I've decided to stop this cycle by playing around this month with what I have, and hopefully it'll extend to creating a lasting behavior.
This was my first attempt at including a new-to-the-blog separate to my rotation -- the lightweight jacket is a nice color and I think it'll be a good alternative to my sweater collection. I really liked the ruggedness of the jacket and the paisley print of the dress.
