My personal style changes with the seasons. When summer starts to cool and I feel the crispness of fall in the air, something clicks and I start rearranging my closet:
I push the wedge sandals, halter tops and most color to the back to make room for the fall and winter wear: black, grey, pinstripes, lace accents, tweed, fur coats, oxfords, boots, fingerless gloves, and fuzzy scarves. I exchange hair flowers & butterflies for rhinestones & pearls. The bold jewelry choices are switched out for vintage brooches, subtle exoskeletons and a lot of marcasite.
Does this make me seem crazy and indecisive? Maybe, but I'm stimulated by so many styles and pretty things that I don't see a point to living life in one costume. You should see the hats I wear around the house when I'm drawing or entertaining the Wolf. We'll save that for another day.

In the meantime, many cheers to the artisans that have provided me with such eye candy. And for everyone else, stay warm!
