...Tom, Huck, Astrid, Frodo, Robin, Peter, Mary.

With the summer well upon us I am turning back to my old favorites, the books I read every summer. What would summer reading be without Samuel Clemmons, Frances Burnett, and Paul Creswick to name a few. Lacking in Adventure, Thrill, Mystery, and Romance. And where would summer be without them? I don't want to know.
There is that old debate, do you read what you are; or are you who you are because of what you read? Okay, maybe it isn't that heated, and no one else has heard of this debate, but I assure you I contemplate the question all the time. Today I have decided...who cares?! Either way I love what I am reading and who I am. Examples of my personal purchases and outfit inspirations
follow:

gold accessories are very necessary.

loose casual shirts are an everyday wear.




Sailors are always put together.





You can take secret gardens with you. No need to hide.

Elves are all about color and hair.

Young girls, still growing up is sweet and innocent and sexy. The perfect mix.

Who can help but let their inner character play when they are reading such strong books?!
