Vanity + Vintage #14 - Knit and Woven: Tactility
14.2.12
It's been so cold lately that I've been wearing plentiful chunky knits without a care of how they may look ... my neck has been completely wrapped up. All I want is to be warm and comfortable. This scarf is one of my favourites and was hand knitted by my friend and fellow blogger KZ years ago. One of the best elements of this knit is its incredible length, which provides extreme versatility as an accessory.
From a tank to a shawl styled coat adornment I've been able to wear this scarf in numerous ways. This installment of Vanity + Vintage is inspired by men's (formal) frock coats of the Edwardian and Victorian period. I absolutely adore the the cut of this jacket (the very fitted bodice area and waist) along with the skirt fullness. It surely makes for an elaborate entrance and exit all on its own, and a statement for a daytime look especially if a windy climate is involved.

Well, I hope you're staying warm! I'm off for a quick adventure. Enjoy your sweet Valentine's day, whether you're staying in, spending time with friends, your spouse, or loved one here's wishing you a wonderful time.
