>> Thursday, July 16, 2009

Khaki Camp Shirt: J.Crew via eBay
Olive Cargo Shorts: very old esprit
Brown Leather Belt: Old Navy
Red Wool Socks
Olive and Brown Hiking Boots: very, very old Vasque
Red Plaid Backpack: imaginary, Jansport
Floral Tent: imaginary, Cath Kidston
But the Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall line, has me possibly changing my tune.

Here's a quote from Nicole Phelp's review of the line on Style.com:
"It's just that in their hiking boots and woolly socks, striped tights, blanket scarves, and felt Molly Ringwald hats, his models looked more like junior mountaineers than they did club-hoppers."
Sounds wonderful to me!! Now, if I could dress like this while camping, I would follow Cole into the deepest darkest wilderness.
So, I'm interested- Are any of you into roughing it in the great outdoors? or Are you more into glam camping?






I've never been camping actually not really the type of thing my parents ever did and I porbably wouldn't want to either too much hard work ( I know how lazy am I lol)
I you ever do go camping you must post about it =)

I totally agree ABOUT THE RUFFLES WITH YOU. They are cute and romantic. I would do anything if I could have a closet full of ruffled clothes :D

Loving the tent in the pic! Ruffles are my fav :)
thanks so much!
the red dress is adorable!
I love the theme of this post! The combination of your lovely sketch and the runway images really bring the idea of "glam camping" to life!

and it shouldn't be a problem. What do you think? 5-6 weeks????
I love nature...but I am with you on the mosquitos and dirtiness. I could see myself in one of those outfits (bright tights - yes ma'am!) at some sort of cushy mountain lodge...does that count as camping? :)
Love that plaid dress!!
Well I am sort of with you...my husband loves to camp...in a tent...so the whole family follows ...every year! I am ok for a few days but after that I so want to come home...the big thing last year was that we got cots to sleep on instead of the ground so we felt like Royal Folks...I am working on a tent heater and a porta-potty but he has not said yes or no...i think we will win...4 girls against one guy ! Oh by the way...I adore those Fall outfits...so so cozy...I love plaid for the Fall!!!!! Bring on Fall!!!
So beautifully talented!
Tried looking but did not see your e-mail address, forgive my eyes maybe.
