-What I'm Wearing-

Polka-Dot Blouse - So Kohl's 
White Twill Skirt - Made by Me (Sense & Sensibility Patterns: 1909 "Beatrix" Skirt pattern)
White Tank - St. John's Bay JCPenny
Bracelet - AmandaBeth Online 
Pearl Earrings & Necklace - Gift
Gold Flats - American Eagle Payless

_______________________________________________________________

For today's outfit, I decided to combine historical Anne with modern Anne, hence the 1909 "Beatrix" skirt.  Also in my outfit I added a flower in my hair (remember Anne's first Sunday in Avonlea in the books!), and a string of pearls around my neck (in memory of Matthew).  All very Anne. 

Are you all excited for this week? I know I am. I've been listen to my Anne of Green Gables soundtracks on repeat all week. =) And guess what?! On the sidebar, I have put together a playlist of the Anne soundtracks.  So enjoy, if you don't own the CDs! 

Remember, if you don't have a blog, you can upload your pictures on our group flickr, here. Otherwise, link up your post for today, below. =)

  8. I love your blouse and vest together! The clasp idea is so neat...

    I like your "in memory of Matthew" touch. That's one of my favorite parts of the movie...she was SO not expecting them, and they comepleted her outifts from then on so prettily! Yours too... :D
