I’ve always wanted to do one of these: a Fashion Post!
Just for good practice, and good measure, I’m going to take on a Sampley girl each week as our subject. Don’t worry, our styles differ widely.
Since I had the idea, I go first.
The Anna winter style is somewhat derived from obscure European sources and uses a single bold color and soft patterns. Like Pollyanna meets Pioneer. The thesaurus says unique, simple, rare, archaic, old-fashioned, melancholy.

Corduroy skirt with big, funny pockets. Broken sleeve lines look good on short arms, and the noticeable necklace at that length draws the eye vertically. Romantic boots provided by my dear sister Candle. (If boots can be romantic!  :) )

Basic and intact. Green and gray is usually nice on a brunette. Those are not knee-socks, but boot warmers that I found at Claire's. They are thick, loose knee-sock things without the feet. Same warmness, different look. The subtle-patterned scarf spices the hoodie into something a little more artistic. The center-seamed skirt gives length to the stubby gray.

I had to do this one because it's such a classic look. Unfortunately, my ipod over-exposed the white shirt, so you can't see the fabulous ruffles at the neck. A sort of Ingrid Bergman timeless quality. Again, three-quarter length sleeves and skirt give height.

This isn't the best picture, but in an outfit of brown shades, the peacock blue catches the eye makes it work. Full skirt this time, but boots in a color that distinguish them.Stripes at the neck eliminates the need for bold jewelry.

This outfit is my favorites because the sweater is new. Against different values of blue, the deep red stands out like a little intrigue in mystery. The dress and sweater are both soft, swinging materials that fold against each other instead of wrinkle. Black stockings have a way of making us notice the face. And flat shoes with green velvet bows are the finishing touch. No jewelry keeps this from being overdone. It is still fun and comfortable.

Thanks for your attention! I'd love to know your thoughts or opinions, or suggestions!
Keep a look-out for Candle-styles next week!
