COTTON

Saturday, August 10, 2013

DIY Flower Crown, Gold Anchor Necklace c/o Lulu*s,  White Cotton Dress from H&M, Cotton Scarf from Calvin Klein, Nude Ankle Strap Pumps from Nine West

This is a more artistic shoot I recently did for a collaboration with Chictopia and Cotton: The Fabric of Our Lives! When I think of cotton, I think of lightness and purity, which were the themes I used to guide me as I put together this easygoing, summer outfit that you can wear any day. I decided on a clean, white color palette and chose to wear a simple, cotton mini dress paired with my favorite scarf. I love these shots of the scarf flowing in the wind because they help to convey the lightness and airiness of cotton :) To add a pop of color, I wore my blue and white flower crown because they reminded me of the summer sky.

Besides the fact that I thought shooting this look in the fields would add to the natural theme of these photos, it's also a very meaningful location to me, especially because this might be the last look I'm able to post to my blog before I leave for New York in 4 days. I took a lot of my first outfit photos here when I started my blog about 2 years ago, and these fields symbolize both the beginning and end of a chapter of my life as I get ready to make the big move and finally start studying at my dream school, Parsons! Everything feels so surreal!

    Beautiful look, Jennifer! The background really fits the theme. Congrats with Parsons! Btw, I'm kinda curious about the school. I'm going to email you some questions about it, if you don't mind? :) x
