I found this old Gap ad while flipping through a magazine from several years ago. It doesn't seem like too much, but for some reason, I was really inspired by it. It's just so slick.
So, behold my loose interpretation...
It was pretty easy. I had all of these pieces in my wardrobe already. Believe it or not, I had never even unpacked this turtleneck from my winter storage. I can't believe I've been without it all winter.
Someone asked to know more about my silver ring. It's actually a bit of an heirloom. It belonged to a great aunt and I found it in my grandmother's jewelry when she passed away. I'm pretty much addicted to it right now. It's amazing to me how old it is, and yet, how modern.
After a long day of super-productivity, I'm off to work for a couple of hours and then bar trivia, courtesy of our local dive. Luckily, John is a trivia all-star, and he's always on my team :)

You look gorgeous! It goes to show you how classic some looks can really be.
ReplyDeleteI've been flipping through old magazines too (trying to purge) and it amazes me what was already in editorials in 2007. We think we're so ahead but in many ways magazines still influence us (though the tide is turning).
ReplyDeleteAnyways, love this. simple and chic! Amen!
Cute! I love the jacket!
ReplyDeleteI actually think your version of the outfit is a lot cuter than the ad. :)
ReplyDeleteThe photos are gorgeous too. The bare trees and snow look mysterious and magical...
