Reading a Little Retro

May 22, 2012,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Nothing seems quite so romantic as reading a book on a blanket, nestled in the woods. And while the reality isn’t quite so nice, it was the perfect setting to showcase this vintage-inspired outfit.

I love the sunhat trend for this season but I wanted to try it out with an outfit other than a swimsuit.

The book I have is a copy of War and Peace, printed in the “Great Books” series put out by the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Skirt: Handmade
Shirt: H&M
Shoes: Thrifted
Belt: Thrifted
Necklace: Tiffany’s
Hat: Payless

    This is absolutely adorable– you make me want to get dressed up and have a afternoon picnic all to myself!
