Where Paths and Errands Meet

"The Road goes ever on and on down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, and I must follow, if I can, pursuing it with eager feet, until it joins some larger way where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say." --J. R. R. Tolkien
Outfit details: coat- courtesy of Shopruche, dress- ASOS, cardigan- H&M, gloves- courtesy of Modcloth, tights- street vendor, boots- some shop in Greece
P.S. This Friday is Blog-meet-Blog and there's an update on the time: it is now 7-10:00pm.

i think that bug dress is my favorite thing in your wardrobe- it's so cute! and colorful but not overly so. the modcloth gloves are so perfect with the dress, since the dress is so playful and the gloves are more ladylike.. great combo. ~joelle

Alas, as I am still up here in the frigid north, I do not believe I will make it to the blogger meet up. Next time! This look is certainly a favorite of mine. I think it's more than just the sum of its parts. Even though all the pieces you are wearing are lovely, somehow together they are just stunning! And of course that jacket is just incredible.

Love everything about this. You are like a cool Pacific NW bug collector! This kind of outfit makes me imagine an awesome house filled with taxidermy butterflies and cozy blankets. Wish I could make it to the meetup tonight, but I'm stuck down here in PDX.

indigotangerine said...

i can't put my finger on what makes all of these very different pieces work together perfectly, I'm thinking it's that wonderful floppy bow.

Davina said...

i love those red gloves, they add such a nice feminine touch to ordinary leather gloves. the dress is fantastic as well! i've been debating whether or not to move to the seattle area (i'm from so. cal), and seeing this bloggers event is making me want to move to WA!

btw, the colors in your photos are always so loverly, do you any photo editing programs?

Not only am I drooling over your dress and gloves, but this outfit is so very flattering for your body type. You look great! And, I also love this location, this dock, that you've been going to. Looks like a wonderful place to hang out.

Nadine said...

I like the way you're wearing the Asos dress... I think I'll try a similar combination.

GlamDistrict said...

Your dress is perfect!

Amelia M said...

That dress! Incredible, from the print to the bow to the cut. I love how you've mixed the prints, I always think it works best when you take two completely different prints and pair them together.

Florence said...

The dress is so cute!

Lillian said...

I love those boots! and you right, that coat is like a new spin on little red riding hood.
Plus I've got a serious soft spot for bows at the back of the neck, it makes you look like a doll!

Charmalade said...

I'm in lovelovelove with this outfit! The dress just MAKES the whole look (I've never really seen other dresses like that), and the gloves give it an edge. It's very flattering and chic. :)

Sidewalk Chalk said...

I really, really love this dress and I like the different ways you've styled it so far! The red gloves are awesome as well :) -JoAnn

kimi said...

Okay where to start? I love everything about your outfit. These Gloves are gorgeous. So is your coat and these boots. I'd prefered the dress with sheer tights because I'm not so much a print-maniac but that's just a small point of criticism.
I was wondering how much time you spend for doing your outfit shoots because your pics are always so great.

dy of ghost said...

i love your plaid coat and the gloves are excellent!

katthroatworld said...

great outfit! love those boots!!!

Elissa said...

one of my favorite looks of yours! the tights are an interesting continuation of the pattern on the dress. ps I was at the h&m in downtown seattle last night and saw that watercolor dress in green...thought of giving it a try cuz I liked it so much on you but ended up coming away w a delightfully tacky jacket instead. 2 words: leopard puffer. yikes! ;)

Ru said...

That dress is so fantastic. I love how you've mixed it up with all the prints this time.

Fabulous outfit, as always. The bow on the dress is a great touch, and the pattern has such a pretty look. Oh, those red gloves! A colorful reminder of how much I want another pair of little gloves.
