Keeping it Classy {Day 5}

 

Hello, people! :)

 

Well, today was a very fun day full of good friends, a good movie (the original The Day the Earth Stood Still;), a walk in the snow, a short snow skirmish, and singing Row, Row, Row Your Boat in rounds in harmony.

 

Yup, lots of fun:)

 

Anyway, since we're both participating in Bramblewood Fashion's Keeping it Classy Modest Fashion Week, Kellie and I decided that we should take today's picture together...

 

Ellen (Kellie's sister), me, and Kellie - and Ellen finally passed me up:'(  Oh well, I knew it wouldn't be long...

 

Without meaning to (except for Ellen and Kellie, of course;), we all wore Fair Isle type sweaters and vests.  If you know Kellie and I, then you know that we pretty much share a brain, and often end up wearing similar outfits, or even the same outfits, on the same day.  We're used to it now:)

 

~My Outfit~

 

Shoes, or in this case, Socks - pink/green/cream - a present from my beloved cousin.  She bought them at...Beeelllk (Belk).  Sorry, inside joke;) 

Skirt - denim half circle skirt - made by me.

Petticoat/Slip - flannel half circle skirt with hand crocheted trim - made by me - adds some extra warmth to any skirt!

Shirt - teal v-neck - Goodwill

Vest - teal, pink and brown fair isle scoop neck - Maurice's...I think.

 

Happy Trails!

 

Keeping it Classy {Day 3}

 

"I don't suppose you'd like to go for a walk, would you?"

 

My brother looked at me.

 

He looked out the window at the rain.

 

He looked at me again.

 

"Yeah, alright."  (said with a British accent like Nick in Chicken Run - "Yeah, awright";)

 

I've got a pretty awesome brother:)

 

 

 

~My Outfit~

Hair flower - present from Grandma - it's actually a pin, but I closed the clasp (!) and used a bobby pin:)

Vest - hand crocheted by me

Shirt - Chadwicks

Jumper - sewn by me - I combined my favorite half circle skirt pattern with the bodice from a dress pattern to make a jumper pattern.

Shoes - my beloved pink and brown cowgirl boots

 

And may I say that it is no joke walking uphill on slippery, slushy snow, in cowgirl boots?  Very difficult, indeed!  But, I made it without mishap:)

 

Is it just me, or do I look like a giant in this picture?  Something about the trees in the background...

 

Also, my collar is supposed to be turned up like that - gives the whole outfit a casual, devil-may-care look, don't you think?  Just kidding!  I had no idea it was turned up like that, and Alex didn't think to tell me.  That is so like a man;)

 

Happy Trails!

Keeping it Classy {Day 2}

 

I'm not planning on linking up every day of the event, but I will when I can, because it's fun:)
