Stye: Little Red Riding Hood

I didn't realize until I arrived home that tying my cardigan over my shoulders made me look like I was wearing a capelet- and much like that storybook character. All I'm missing now is a wolf as my Pet!

Talbot's cardigan and skirt, Target camisole, Merona shoes, self-made necklaces.

Style: Black, Grey, White

Hilariously, half my coworkers and managers have been wearing black and white, and 1940s styles this week. Could I be subconsciously influencing them?

Target camisole, sweater, and necklace (long), thrifted belt and skirt, Talbots tights, Merona shoes. Claire's studded cuffs, vintage key on a chain.

Jabberwocky, by Lewis Carroll

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogroves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogroves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
