CCLXXIX.

As you might have already guessed, I have given up on documenting my 'wear something new everyday' challenge. That doesn't mean I've given up on posting outfits in general. If I feel like an outfit is different and/or inspired enough, then I will more than likely post it. Huzzah.

Now for your viewing pleasure! It's that time of the year again when I drool all over the fall shipments at Anthropologie:

How cute are these hats?!

Kate and I are making the effort to wear something new or different every day. Of course she's a pro, and I'm inexperienced at this sort of thing so my methods will more than likely change somewhere in the documenting process.

Today I wore my vintage 50s dress from Bygones in RVA-
