Well, today is my last day of work! Pretty excited, I must say. Yesterday I totally overslept and was late for work. Whoops! I don't think anyone noticed. It was funny because I was in bed dreaming that I was late for work and then my mom comes to my room and is like, "uhhh do you work today?" and I was like, "ah! I was just dreaming that I was late!" Crazy how the mind does that. I guess that'll teach me to not have phone conversations till after 2 am when I have to wake up at 6:30. Oh well, it was worth it.
My Brave tote bags are being printed this week, so hopefully I should have some more information to you guys about ordering, etc. in the near future. It's going to be a limited edition of 24 (unless I want to keep one... then just 23 for you guys), so there's not going to be a lot of them. I'm keeping the film transparencies of the bag print and I'm thinking of doing an edition of the same print but on paper when I go through Spokane. I'd really like to spend a few days at my old school visiting with my favorite prof and printing a limited edition serigraph of that same artwork. So if that all gets to happen, I will be offering you guys those prints too in the next few months. I think Spokane is going to be my first destination once I get through Canada, so that might be the first thing that happens! I'm really hoping I get to print. I adore being covered in ink and spending all night in the print studio working on editions. I want to do an etching when I'm there too. I think I might want to buy a copper plate to work on beforehand though... ah all this printmaking excitement is just blurting out of me, sorry!
When I got this skirt from the Delightful Dozen I realized that I don't really wear brown and don't really know how to wear brown. I mean, I just don't have anything in my closet that is brown (that I can think of right now, maybe I'm lying). So it sat in my room for ages with me trying to figure out what to do with it. Then I decided to try a more fall color palate with the oranges and browns together. Meh. I'm not sure brown is my color. I feel weird wearing it.

i think i subconsciously noticed that that was an unusual colour on you hahaha - creeper! it looks so good with that dress though! good luck on your last day!
haha I think I need to pass that skirt on to you permanently. It looks like it was meant to be worn by you!!! The outfit is perfect!! You def. know how to wear brown...
No, you look cute! Great outfit. I love the colors. It looks very autumn. I totally want some moccasins now. :P
Congrats on the last day of work. Do you feel free? hehe

I think you look great in brown. It really warms up your hair color and skin tone. Congratulations on being done with work! Yay for nomad-ism!
AHh! congrats! Have a good last day of work :) Do you know the dates of when you'll be in Spokane?? I live close to Spokane...a blogger meetup would blow my mind!!
Have a great last day of work, I'm so excited for the big adventure ahead for you xoxo
Even you say that brown isn't a color for you, I actually think it would in a way-- I mean, brown connotes earthiness, which I think is a part of your style. So personally, I really love this outfit! The mixing colors are brightly amazing. :)

Congrats on the last day of work! You must be so excited about everyhing that's ahead of you. I know I am looking forward to reading all about your adventures!

I love your dress and skirt! I have the same problem with not being able to dress in brown, but this outfit really rocks it.
Eeep how exciting! You are actually on the precipice (nice word) of your Brave journey! Good luck with your last day lady :]
Come to think of it, I don't have much brown either. I think it's more of an accessory color than an actual clothes color.
Love your look!
I really like your amazing skirt!!
you loook gorgeous!
Amazing outfit! Congrats on your last day of work. It must feel great to know that you are on your way to a great new journey. Enjoy!!
classic
that's what it is
and I'm lovin it ;p
well somehow you pulled off the brown excellently! It is really pretty!!
Pretty outfit ! I bet you are very happy it is your last day of work, what a nice feeling that must be !
I was just gonna say how great the color of the skirt goes with your dress/top. I think you def figured something out, even if it's not your usual color. This is one of my favorites of yours lately. :)
I love that skirt with that top/dress! So cute! :)
Congrats on your last day of work and the beginning of another life chapter! Seems kind of fitting to work something new into your wardrobe for such an occasion. I do not do brown either, but it looks good on you. ^w^
xox,

If you go to Spokane, I think you should consider a stop in Coeur D'Alene, ID. The lake, good restaurants, quirky shops, it's so beautiful and quaint, perfect for your photos. (My BF is from CDA and I love traveling to the area!)
That's funny because I feel the same way about brown. It just feels odd to wear it. You look beautiful in it though! And congrats on today as you last day and tomorrow as your first day on your new adventure!
Cute outfit! Where in Canada are you going through?
I love the brown! It's probably the skirt though because usually browns are to blah for me, but the skirt...soooo lovely.
Going to Spokane? awesome! I live in WA and am like an hour away...
I saw a girl on a train in Switzerland with your mocs. Same exact ones. Really.
lovelyyyyyy outfitt!! :))
xoxo
Congratulations!!! How exciting :)
I personally love chocolate brown and mustard yellow together! It looks good on your skin tone.
fun times!
I love the brown moccasins-I have the same in white.
I love the frilly lace paired with a casual button up top~ great idea. Pocket of Presh
I think the brown with the red suits you very well. You certainly shouldn't feel weird wearing it!
these pics are wonderful and your style is very particular! Great! I'll follow you!

I really admire how brave you are:) That is really cool, the thing that you are going to do..Riding alone across the USA,wow. I am from Europe (Czech republic) and can't imagine to do something like that, even not in Europe. It is probably mainly because I live in bigger city with a good public transport system and I don't need to dreive so I am not an experienced driver, even though I am a bit older than you. I wish you good luck! I really like your blog...petra
I live in Spokane, WA! I'll be sure to keep a look out for your Winne.
Umm...I want a tote bag!!!! Cannot wait to have them available!
I love this look. Its so "Elizabeth" and Delightful. Good for you for stepping out of your comfort zone :)
I love your shoes in this! Also, you have such an amazing blog; I just discovered it today via chictopia, and this is definitely going to be bookmarked as one of my favourites. Also, I'm so glad your brother's operation went well.
God bless! xo
