Anne of Green Gables day four: Modern Anne photoshoot

My sister and I do not need an excuse to have a photoshoot, but today we do have an excuse: Ashley's Anne of Green Gables Fashion Week! 

In these pictures I am dressed in a modern Anne outfit. Anne loves the color mint green and she loves her pearls. I am wearing a green oversized sweater, which Anne would have found very comfortable, pearl earrings and a pearl ring. 

One of Anne's favorite activities is reading a good book and eating an apple.







She is also a talented writer.





Coming up next is a historical Anne photoshoot, a tutorial showing how to make Anne's pearl ring, and maybe some art. I'm so excited! Thank you Ashley, for hosting this fashion week. =D

flowy top





Last week, my friend Brenna gave me a box of clothes/accessories/shoes. This top is from her, isn't it so pretty? Thanks so much Brenna!

Modern Anne: puffed sleeves





Today is the second day of Ashley's Anne of Green Gables Fashion Week. I have some fun posts planned for this week, including a couple photoshoots, so stay tuned for them. =]

This outfit is slightly Anne-inspired because it has puffed sleeves. I'm entering it in the Modern Anne fashions.

Back from vacation



So you should all be really proud of me. I knew I needed to post today, so I'm missing part of a Doctor Who episode in order to get this post up. That's some serious blogger dedication for you! ;]

God Bless America


My native country, thee,



                                                              Land of the noble free,


                                                               Thy name I love.


                                                         I love thy rocks and rills,


                                                    Thy woods and templed hills;


                                                    My heart with rapture fills


                                                             Like that above.


 

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,



                                  What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?


                              Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight,


                              O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?


                                 And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,


                               Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.


                                   O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave


                             O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? 
 
 

God Bless America,

Land that I love.
Stand beside her, and guide her

Thru the night with a light from above.

From the mountains, to the prairies,

To the oceans, white with foam

God bless America, My home sweet home.




Let music swell the breeze,
                                                            And ring from all the trees

                                                               Sweet freedom's song.

                                                          Let mortal tongues awake;

                                                        Let all that breathe partake;


                                                       Let rocks their silence break,

                                                             The sound prolong.



Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;

He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;

He hath loosed the fateful lightning of his terrible swift sword:

His truth is marching on.


Patriotic toes

Here's what my toes look like now:

Modest fashion show, day three: blue plaid




Heh, sorry about the face I'm making in the first photo! It's the only full length picture and I really don't feel like taking more, so it's staying.

I wish you could see my necklace. My parents bought it for me, and it has an ORCA WHALE on it!! It's very awesome. =D

Tomorrow, I'll be leaving for vacation with my family. This means I won't be able to enter more outfits in the fashion show. =[ It's been fun though! Thanks, Natasha!

Orca




         My camera/computer/usb cord is being mean to me. =p So today is the second day of Natasha's modest online fashion show, and I didn't enter on the first day. =[
