Zippora Seven for Elle France, September 2012

This editorial has been sitting on my desktop for quite a while now- about 2 months to be precise.  Woops.  However I just had to share it.  I love the contrast of all the heavy knits against Zippora's bare skin, barely there bikinis and and beach hair.  It's a story that perfectly captures the transition of summer in to autumn.

The Drifter

Some boho inspiration for layering up against the cold this winter, courtesy of LF Stores. I especially love the last look with it's transparent maxi/cropped slouchy jumper/faux fur collar/hat combo. And the Fairisle leggings in the set before.
