It is raining cats and dogs today! Like so:

(Other illustrations that I considered including: 1 & 2.) A person who is more accustomed to dramatic weather, e.g. not a Californian, might say that it's only raining puppies and kittens, but the downpour feels pretty substantial to me. We even had a few rumbles of thunder! It was positively thrilling. Well, happy April! Because April showers bring May flowers or whatever.

This cowl was one of my gifts from Dagny Stangl for Sanae Ishida's Secret Valentine Exchange. I wore it immediately, when X and I went camping. In fact, my outfit was the exact same one you see in these pictures, which was perfect for sleeping outdoors because my cashmere sweater is so cuddly and warm.
Someday, I would love to own something cashmere. The problem is, the kind of sweater it usually gets made into looks terrible on me, somehow... :-(
ReplyDeleteThat's a bummer, because it seems like exactly the kind of material you would like!
DeleteI really like the expression that you captured in the arms-crossed pose. You come across as interested, friendly, and slightly amused all at the same time.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I guess that's roughly what I was going for.
DeleteThe last photo of you is such an interesting capture of a very wonderful face!
ReplyDelete(btw, it's totally not raining here! It's sunny + the snow is melting, making for very gigantic puddles!)
Thank you! I can't imagine navigating Alaskan puddles.
DeleteChunky rope cowl, ftw! I luvs it. I love the rough texture against the smooth band. Very pretty.
ReplyDeleteCashmere and merino wool are love too.
Yes @ all of it!
