    1. As I mentioned before, your insight always lends new perspective! Yeah, I really like the swoopy pocket on that dress. Also really like the word "aubergine".

    2. You could call it 'radiant orchid' if you'd like, but that's not nearly as much fun.

  3. this is absolutely something i never think of, but what a cool post!! i love that all the fabrics look like they'll feel so diff & get me thinking more about the feels, which i actually care about so much in real life since some fabrics itch me, but never think about until i put something on.

    1. It's one of the big determinations when I'm shopping! There are some fabrics I just won't buy. I prefer heavier, natural fabrics to polyester/etc.

  4. That 'whump!' noise was me passing out in front of my computer when I saw that INDESCRIBABLY AWESOME blue coat.
