Inspired by winter´s beautiful snowy forests and
St Lucy´s Day (celebrated Dec 13th, particularly in Sweden these days) I created this outfit for myself:
 |
| This is as wintery as it gets. Nature is in all different shades of grey now, like the base of my outfit, with snow piled on evergreens. No signs of Christmas, simply celebrating true winter. This outfit is great all through Yule (early December through mid January). |
 |
| Nature´s art, my never ending source of inspiration. |
 |
| My art. Green aromatherapy earrings complement the look. In this traditional makeup, with faint red lips and cheeks, I try to capture the essence of ancient beauty ideals. Mankind has always sought for and appreciated beauty, and often traditional is better than quick fashion trends. |
 |
| The shirt is simple cotton jersey, and the pants are dark grey corduroy. |
 |
| The appliques continue in the back. Back is often neglected and left plain for some reason. I like to add detail there too, when appropriate. |
In truth, I´m no saint, and don´t try to impersonate one, but my goal is to shine happiness and good mood around me, making my own little bubble a better place. Deep down that´s selfish, but I believe others benefit from it too by (hopefully) getting a smile on their face. There´s enough bad in this world, so every effort adding good to it is welcome!
