Sunset by the Lake

Sunset by the Lake

It's so nice having the lake to ourselves again. Now that the weather is turning cold, the park is pretty deserted rendering it perfect for photo shoots. There is nothing more serene to me than a sunset by the lake. We had to shoot fast because within no time the sun was turning bright orange and falling behind the horizon.

If you spotted yesterday's tumblr, you probably noticed that I mentioned shopping in Ann Arbor at American Apparel. Well, I did and I bought this lovely navy blue beret. You've seen my old black beret many times, but I've been dying for a navy blue one for as long as I've owned my duffle coat. I think they go together perfectly.

Photos by Cole. Thanks, darling!

Old navy blue duffle coat and cable sweater: Brooks Brothers boys
Old pleated skirt: Banana Republic
Old knee socks: from high school
Vintage kiltie pumps: thrifted
Satchel: Urban Outfitters
Navy blue beret: American Apparel...Random side note, everything that I'm wearing (accessories aside) I have owned for over five years. The coat, sweater and skirt I bought back in 2005 when I was working in finance in Andover, MA and the knee socks are actually from the beginning of my high school days bought in 1995. Shocking right!

Yours,
