ShopRuche is definitely one of my favorite online shops. My favorite and much-abused
grey bag is from here and has stood all my adventures across the ocean and even endured my heavy schoolbooks. Now I have a new addition to my Shopruche purse collection:
the deep sea frontier satchel. The lovely lady behind Shopruche is kind enough to offer one of these purses as a giveaway to one lucky reader. So, to win this bag just leave a comment below (open to international readers). I'll draw the winner's name on 8/3/09.





Outfit details: dress- vintage, shoes- Seychelles from my sisters, bag- ShopRuche
I wore my new
Shopruche dress on a day trip to the beach. The dress is easy and wonderful to wear in the heatwave I am currently melting under...I sort of hate old homes with "character" that don't have air conditioning right now.







Outfit details: hoodie- some shop in Japan, dress-
ShopRuche, bag- Pull and Bear, ring- Etsy, shoes- Urban Outfitters

Great photos, love the fringe on the bag. Cute dress!
Your new dress is so pretty.....:)
You were melting under the heatwave and still looked really lovely - don't worry, just think about the beauty of those narrow trail and open-field you came to. Here in my place, the heatwave is even worse - days are sizzling, plus we only have dry and raining seasons. You're solucky to be there right now - believe me when Indonesian says 'hot', it means we're really boiled here - LOL. Hontou ni atsui!!
Well, I'm wishing you colder wind and friendly weather for the next days after! :)
Oh, I'd looooove to win!
That dress is so cute. I also love the seahorse ring. Very cool
I love your blog. I can't believe you take the photos yourself... they're so good! And I love your style.
I'd love to win a bag like that : )
I don't have a fringe bag...
And yes, old homes with no airconditioning are annoying.
Wow, thanks for the link to the shop, I'll be sure to take a peek! Looks like they have some pretty unique items...
Cool! I'd never heard of them before!
Aw, what a sweet bag! I've been looking for a cross-body bag lately and this would be perfect. :)
Great giveaway!
xo, Kate
I love the shop!! I'll search for something to me. And they have eco friendly clothes!
I love your dress, looks gorgeous.
The bag is so gorgeous! I love it.
beautifull landscapes, like always.
You have a knack for picking up the loveliest dresses - both of the above are SO sweet...
And you're somewhat lucky to be experiencing a heat wave - it's the end of July and we're still so cold and wet, here in the UK!
Thanks for the giveaway!
I adore that seahorse ring... :)
<3
our house has niether ac or charachter.... I'm practically a puddle. Love your ring

I love your seahorse ring, so unique!
I just spent a great deal of time shopping that site. I think I'm going to have to place an order! Thanks for the tip! Also my fingers are crossed beyond recognition; I want to wiiin!
sharris3@wisc.edu
thanks for sharing the link, I'm new and really have to learn a lot! :)
I will visit it soon because I absolutely love your style.
I don't like Barbie either, but the book of Barbie Issue is really great:) I also wish Vogue Spain was at least half as good as Vogue Paris or Italy :-p

I miss the washington woods, they are so magical. The purse is so lovely, thanks for the opportunity! I have to say the first outfit is one of my faves ever, the purse, shoes and dress are perfect together! :)
Where is that Beach, it looks huge and somewhere I could take Luka without being ticketed!
Love the etsy shoes
I just want to say that I absolutely adore your blog. I've been style blog-stalking for over a year and can't believe it took me this long to notice yours! Fantastic photos and outfits! :)
You have such thoughtful posts, and you are pretty. :)
There's always so much to see and read in your posts that I never know where to begin with my comment. I really like your bag. I haven't yet found a bag that survived my schoolbooks. It's always a challenge. The blueish nailpolish is so awesome.
And I really, really love the seahorse ring.
So about books: I love books about traveling and exploring new places in the physical outside world and mental/emotional inside yourself… inspirational or educational stuff… :)
I adore the sea horse ring. Very very cute indeed! x
that's a beautiful dress! and bag! i'd love to win it.
Can't be too hot, you have a sweater! haha
Thanks for mention that website.I'm loving it!
Gorgeous photos today! Hope you're beating the heat. Also, I LOVE the seahorse ring. And your nails.
Ohh! Very cute!

I will have to check out that website. I love your outfits, they all seem very inspired. I love unique style.
I'm not sure which outfit I like better, the one you have on today (you're such a nice friend to help with moving!) or your nautical inspired outfit. And I've lived in an old house my entire life and have never had air conditioning.... though it's barely made it over the low 80's all summer, not that I'm complaining.
Stay cool!
Love love love those Seychelles shoes your sisters got you. And I'd love to be entered in the contest!
my mom wants the bag =]
Oh my goodness! I cannot believe I had never seen that website. I just quickly browsed through the dresses and fell in love. I'm going to continue looking, thank you!
ah what a cute bag! and great website too
gorgeous bag, i really like it with the stripes.
i love shopruche.
i love that bag.
i hope i win!
p.s. that seahorse ring is so cool :)
Your ShopRuche dress is gorgeous and I adore your photos near the sea, lucky you !! The sea horse ring is awesome, never seen one before..
I love the seahorse (I hope that's the proper english name) ring :)

Your pictures are always like something straight out of a picture book :)
cutest purse ever, dearie!
You are such a sweetheart!
that satchel is really the thing for summer! I really can't take the heat any longer, but i'm planning another getaway soon. I'm most amazed how you manage to look so lovely even with this drawback! The photos are wonderful as usual :)
i really like the "exposed slip" part of the dress.
cute bag! and I love the outfits.
i love the fringe on the purse - such a cute little detail!
I would kill to be at the beach right now.
The dress is very cute
Gosh! You look so cool calm and collected and pretty considering the heat over there! How do you do thta? Love the bag, your nail polish, your frock and best of all the seahorse ring!
Haha, at first this post made very little sense... with the title of 'all the best things in life are free' closely followed by 'x is definitely one of my favourite online shops'. Made more sense later though ;) x
agreed, ruche is definately my favourite online store
oh your new dress is lovely! I especially like the white coming out the bottom. The bag goes delightfully well with your shoes, too!
I hear you on the air conditioning, my parents thought aircon would ruin the 'charm' of our house, but the heat tends to ruin the charm of everything else!
Lovely outfits!! Also, your hair is looking gorgeous!!
I`d love to give that bag a happy home here in Brazil! =)
Holy giveaway! What a great one! :)
I know I say it often, but your photos are just incredibly beautiful! They seem so peaceful and serene. You live in a lovely area!
Thank you so much for commenting on my blog. I am such a fan of your blog, I couldn't even believe it was you! That striped hoodie is amazing. I am such a fan of sailor stripes these days. And your nail polish color is one I have been looking for everywhere - been searching for months! Mind sharing your secrets? :)
HAHA i hate houses that has the ac but the landlord is too lazy to fix it so i have to melt under the heatwave anyway...
gotta love that bag. love the deep color.
the dress is so sweet

tigger_tiger45@hotmail.com
Hope to win the purse...and am inspired by your blog as well!
Of course all your photos are lovely. I have been drooling over and dreaming of that Shopruche sailor dress for awhile, and it looks great on you!
I love Ruche, they always have the best things.
We drove by Fort Lewis last week on our way to Portland and there was an accident at the Fort Lewis gate which backed up traffic for at least an hour! All of this to say, I thought it was so funny that I drove "by" you! And hoped no one you knew was involved in the accident.
I'm melting in the same heatwave down in oregon right now. sucksss. The coast was my beacon of cool weather too.
aaah, you've got so many beautiful dresses. (and awesome shoes too)
There aren't very many fashion blogs in Washington. I only know of a few. I'm really glad you got some good shots on the beach. I went a few weekends ago, and it was way too windy! I got sand in everything I own!
Where do u shoot!?!
you're pics are always so stunning!!
that seahorse ring is fantastic!
You are so pretty !
Oh where can I get that seahorse ring?!
i love it! and the purse too!
and i love your style, your photos. i'm not a freaky fan, i swear, but sometimes my outfits are inspired by yours :D
blue stripes, a seahorse and a beach- can it get any more summer-y?
OMg open to intl readers?!
You rock!
I love your vintage checked dress!!!
howdyho my favorite redhead in whole blogosphere :)
this landscape is just breathtaking :) our sea side is more - with rocks and stuff and less with sand :(
love the horsie ring:)
The pictures, you in the forest, are beautiful! You look like a sweet wood nymph.
Congratulations on your 2nd blog birthday! Sorry I'm a few days late, I'm supposed to be on a bit of a computer break but I couldn't help checking in on some of my favourite blogs! ;) Can't believe its been 2 years, this last year definitely flew. Thanks for all the work you put into this blog, I love coming here and seeing your lovely outfits and little bits of inspiration. Hope you have many more happy blogging years.
That bag is great, it looks really handy but then it also has all that fabulous fringing. Count me in for the competition! :) I also love your stripey hoody, its the perfect casual summer top to throw on with a such pretty dress.
Wow that is a very kind blog entry :)
Your style is amazingly unique yet wearable at the same time. And really inspiring too, especially to petite-size girls like me :p
You know I'm probably 2 or 3 cm shorter than you, so I'm thanking you for creating such a nice blog hehehe :)
i really love your style!:)
Love the bag! Deliciously bohemian luxe.
it is a great shop! tose items are wonderfull.
looks like its sunny in washington :)
Re: Thank you so much for the nice comment :)
Luckily I haven't been interrupted my strangers passing by, but then again we have a hedge in our garden :)
FRINGE! i love a bag with fringe (or anything with fringe for that matter). it goes so well with the blue dress... i'm wishing that dress wasn't vintage so i could get one too!
THat setting looks so idealic. Ohh a competition - I love competitions :)
Oh, and btw - thanks for the comment back.
:)

That bag is wonderful - and finally, a contest for international readers! Excellent!
Oh, and I really love your seahorse ring. :)
That nail polish is to die for! And the seahorse ring is so unique, I've never seen one of those before :) I love all your backgrounds too. You must live in a really nice place

Quite the lovely ring!
I love the photos :)
I still love the Etsy ring :).
Gosh you have cute dresses! I also love your photographs, they're always so beautiful.
I've been following your blog for some time now. I must say, I think we've been cut from the same perfect-for-a-twee-little-dress cloth.
Cheers!
you definitely find the cutest dresses in the world :)
Sounds like a nice giveaway. Great outfit post, and I love those shoes in the second outfit set.
Awesome giveaway, outfits and bags! *fingerscrossed*
That seahorse ring has to be one of the cutest accessories I have ever seen. Thanks for the giveaway!
What a cool bag! Lovely giveaway.
I love the softness of the grass in the 2nd set of pictures. The ring seems so appropriate.
Yay! The dress and bag looks perfect on you...like everything else! =)
That bag is really nice. I love the dress in the first photos, but your beach photos. This heat wave is insane. We are not supposed to get this hot in Washington. I don't have air conditioning either, so I understand your suffering. Kind of just want to hang at the grocery store/starbucks all day.
Lovely photos as always! And that seahorse ring is unbelievable.
i love ur fringe bags!
u have many dresses too...
and i love ur hair color...
=D
You, your photos, your style epitomize everything i love!!
it's like horse hair fringe! cool!
Mmm...I know what you mean about heatwaves. I just got back from a nice winter in Melbourne, now I'm dying in the hot tropical weather!
i love your seahorse ring!
wish the sky was clear yesterday at the beach in our place like your trip to the beach. i couldn't enjoy the hidden sunset!
i was floored when i read that you didn't have a sidekick but yourself and your tripod to take such wonderful pictures.
i would love to win something! the clothes on ShopRuche are so girly pretty!
your navy platforms are TDF. oh everything's nice!
Your platforms and that fringed bag are divine. Love.
am loving the new dress in your second outfit! Plus you look too cute in that hoodie XDD
I am just in love with that seahorse ring! I just love that picture in general, really. And the bag is so cool, at first I thought the different shades were just from the shimmering in the sun.
Cute bag! Your new dress is absolutely adorable as well. :)
That bag is gorgeous! I would love to own it.
beautiful beautiful bag! i'm a new reader and i love your blog and style! your photos are fantastic.

For some reason, I haven't been able to access the ShopRuche website for a couple of months now. It's not like I can afford to purchase anything right now, but it was always nice to wander through and look at pretty clothes...
I'm not usually a purse person but I think this one would change that immediately.
I want it!
I love your shoes & nailpolish!
Sweet!

Your Local looks so much like my annual holiday spot Dumfries and Galloway in South West Scotland. Fascinating considering where I figured you were. Your fringe bag and your Sea Horse are so nice. I'd like it to be ceramic but is it plastic?
I love the bag. Thanks for the links to the shop.
