Happy Accidents
The best kind of outfits seem to be happy accidents. They pull together pieces from different shops, were bought years apart, and yet seem meant to be worn all together. It can take me forever to dress, because I just start pulling things instinctively. It is rare for me to have an exact picture in mind, which often leads to a pile of discarded extras and accessories on the floor. The end result though, can feel as nicely composed as this outfit...

I love this outfit, it has to be one of my favourites of yours. It just goes so nicely! I love how you always have a different scenery in your pictures :)
I know this sounds like a stupid thing to ask but how do you get all your pictures the same size without them looking pulled or anything? It never works for me :)

I'm jealousy is also a great form of compliments.... I'm sooo jealouse right but in this case it's a very very very good thing!

i adore that jacket and that comfy looking scarf!
I completely agree. Some of my all time favorite outfits have formed when I just threw something together. your outfit is absolutely fantastic. It's so regal, girly and down to earth. Perfect!
This outfit is so cute and girly! I love it. I take ages to put on an outfit and hate being rushed because I end up wearing something that really doesnt go well together!
The last little photo of you is adorable!
love the slight victorian feel of this outfit - you look so poised and elegant.
xo.

This outfit is gorgeous, and composed of so many beautiful separates! I do the exact same thing....every night I have to hang back up everything that I tried on and discarded on the floor!
you're so lovely :)
happy accident indeed! you look lovely.

This outfit literally took my breath away, pretty lady. Wow. I was afraid to try the circle/infinity scarf myself, but you wear it insanely well.

Love love love. Your dresses are always so cute, and I MUST get a scarf like that. It looks SO cozyy
beautiful! your dress is so lovely, and adds just the right amount of color to your outfit =)
I love this! This may be one of my favorite outfits of yours... every little piece is so "wow"!

Your dress is so lovely, the print is really pretty! Loving the scarf too.
These pieces go so well together! Love the scarf.
really love the shoes and the scarf
they also match perfectly the dress
lovely!
I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes I plan an outfit, but the ones that come out at-the-moment and in which the pieces have nothing in common.. they just fit.
And this fits perrfectly :)
happy accident outfits turn out to be some of the best :) i love the look of the blazer over the dress.
I don't often have happy accident outfits, but I have happy accidents in life and at school. Your outfit was more like a jubilant accident :) Love everything about it.
My best outfits always tend to be accidents too :) You look great!

I like the addition of the gifs to your posts :)
That little video is so cute! I love seeing how you put things together. Also, I LOVE YOUR SHOES. I'm looking for a pair like that...they seem like they would just work with everything!
This is great! I love the way that scarf, especially over the blazer, becomes a dramatic sort of neck ruff.
And I often get dressed in a similar way... and it sometimes makes me late... haha ;)
probably one of my favourite outfits of yours thus far. Yarn Over Movement is totally awesome. :) :)
I'm too lazy to read through everyone else's comments at this point, but I wonder...did this remind anyone of Alice in Wonderland?! Because I saw your outfit and immediately check the photos for the Cheshire Cat and the White Rabbit.
Great outfit! Whimsical and lovely.
So pretty! I'm glad that you chanced upon this combination :DD
So pretty! I'm glad that you chanced upon this combination :DD
i'm in love with this scarf and am totally thinking about making one for myself!
So smart and lovely. Really love the shoes! Been looking for a pair like these. Seychelles makes gorgeous shoes.

That sounds like pretty much how I dress, too. Lovely dress :)

Well don't you just look fantastic! way to wear the florals in Fall :)and I love the scarf with the bun on your head.
