In good company

The day these photos were taken was spent in the company of my older sister. We giggled at the wind that sent shivers down our spines with each howling blow and the comical shapes my shadow made against the outdoor brick wall (better seen here). Our visits tend to be few and far between, but she's by far one of my most favorite people to spend time with. Familial bond aside, she's one rad gal. Maybe I'll coax her into making an appearance here on my blog one of these days.




Cardigan & shirt: J.Crew, Hat: H&M (borrowed from my sister. Thanks sweets!), Jeans: Old Navy, Shoes: American Eagle Outfitters

Love your outfit! That tee and cardi combo looks an awful lot like stuff we've got at Loft right now. :P We like to copy J.Crew a lot. The shoes are so sweet too! It looks like it was cold that day-- I can see your goosebumps! Brr!

I love how you made a casual outfit so pretty!

My sisters are two of my favorite people too! Even if we weren't sisters, i think we'd still be friends.

Hello Emily. I'm sorry I have been behind in commenting recently. I just gave you an award on my blog so please take a look. Its really lovely how you are such good friends with your sister. I borrow clothes and accessories from my sister too sometimes. I think your outfit in this post is amazing and cute at the same time. I like your top and your shoes the most.

I love the detail on your shirt. That sounds like a wonderful visit.

Thanks, Em! I'm trying to get all this internet hoozy-doozy stuff to work. :P If you are on Google Friends Connect, can you add me? I put it on my page but it looks lame sitting there with no friends. :( *Sniff* I finally figured out how to use Google Reader and added you! Yay!

The rosettes are attached to the t shirt? How perfectly sweet. I love it plus the colour of your knit cap is perfection. I've always wished for a sister. I'm glad you had such a great time with yours.

PS! I was in a second hand bookshop and found a 1960s hardback of Good Wives by Louisa May Alcott with illustrations. I opened it up and there were dried leaves interspersed between the pages which someone had left there. It was so magic and I thought you were the perfect person the book should go to!
