Dearest reader,
One of the greatest pleasures of dressing up is when your clothing reminds you of your favorite stories and characters in them. That is because you get to pretend a little bit, as if, you were that interesting character who did all those exciting things, lived in that beautiful place, ate all the delicuous food, made all those lovely friends, experienced adventures unimaginable and said such brilliant words. In my opinion, clothes like that make life funnier and, perhaps, those are the most important of clothes.
So when my mom gave me her old, shrunken shirt with pleats on the front and a slight empire waistline I immediately thought that "This reminds me of something Anne, from the Netflix series "Anne With an E", would wear". And as it happens, "Anne With an E" is one of my favorite series (I have watched it four times and now ordered the first book), which is why, I am over the moon about this generous wardrobe donation that makes me feel like Anne everytime I wear it.
White shirt secondhand from my mother | Crochet skirt is made by me | Hat is old secondhand | Shoes are 1970s vintage from my grandmother | Earrings are from Bonanza Paris | Necklace is from Audrey Leighton Vintage | Lipstick is YSL Rouge Pur Couture in 01
Yours truly,
Siiri
