Revolutionary Road

Howdy hi everybody! I'm a bit unsure of how much outfit posting I am going to be able to fit in this week and I know for a fact that I will not be able to do a 4th of July post as Ruby Tuesday's will temporarily have possession of my soul this weekend. That being said, I decided I would celebrate our country's independence a week early! I threw this outfit together and concluded it reminded me of something Kate Winslet's character in Revolutionary Road would wear.

Picture 285

Picture 288

Picture 297
He is barely visible, but I had a little wildlife encounter in the woods with a deer. If you look really closely over my left shoulder you can see, very faintly though, my deer friend!! Its kind of like playing eye spy, but he's there!!

Outfit Details: Blouse...Forever 21, Vans...Journeys, Shorts, scarf, belt...thrifted

I looked up some quotes from Revolutionary Road and found one I especially loved said, by Kate Winslet as April:
"If being crazy means living life as if it matters, then I don't mind being completely insane."

    She (KW) looked great in the movie. I read the book also, and the author talked a lot about the character's admired style. The outfit does look like something she would wear. Really gorgeous!
