Winder Wonderland Add as Favorite Photo

Not the typical fluffly white snow, but clear sparkling ice droplets. Clinging to the branches, frozen overnight like cold diamonds. The woods, a frosty myriad of branch, twig and leaf, like the fabled diamond forest in the tale of The Twelve Dancing Princeses. The princess. Clad in a flowing cobweb gown of the utmost shade of green-no wait. The princess is wearing a black blazer, tights, kakhi shorts, livened up with jewelry and a vintage tapestry bag. Ah, my wonderful imagiantion. My greatest talent will, in the end, get the better of me, and turn me into a blathering idiot! (By the way, how do you like my writing style? I’m working on a novel, but it isn’t getting very far…)
Picture taken yesterday in my piano teacher’s backyard.

I bought this coat at Salvation Army, in one of those crazy fill-a-bag-for-3-bucks sales. It reminded me of a funkier, younger Jackie O.-classic, chic, and utterly timeless.
