Maybe Style Underdog’s Color Explosion Birthday Week rubbed off on me. But then again, maybe not. One colored piece hardly a colorful outfit makes.
That’s OK. Mother Nature (and Picnik) handled the rest. Wishing you all a happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks, Lee! Those boots are so OTT, but I love them.
No, I didn’t change my hair color. But in the light (and real life) you can see that the ends are reddish—they’re just faded from the sun, so my hair is kind of ombré, but I like it like that. The effect on these photos emphasizes the redness.

Those boots are awesome! I love the coat, too. And the beautiful autumn leaves!

The colors on your shots are incredible! I love how you pull those boots off and the long coat over them.
Because im sort of shortassed, I cannot wear this type of boots – they make me look even shorter because the top of the boots reaches the hoo-ha area
Lol
Happy Thanksgiving!

Beautiful color play! I like how that shrub in the background echoes the purple of the boots. You’re still getting some good leaf turning down South, I see. Things are pretty drab in Wisconsin by now, just a few ochre and brown leaves clinging to trees.

The last photo should be printed and framed. It is beautiful. I will not lie V, that color week was tough. I ran out of things to wear by Friday. Now I know, color grounded with neutrals, that’s how I roll. Happy Thanksgiving.

Wow, it sure is pretty there. Tall girl + tall boots + long coat + short dress = Rad.
SUPER photos! Love the pop of purple against the autumnal pallete of the leaves, the sky and the trees. Your coat and dress look almost midnight blue. The last photo is pure poetry.

Oh V this shoot is stunning – first of all I love the little pop of color on your boots, it kinda brings out the color in your hair? Especially in the last pic.
I am also so in awe of the beautiful leaves! Here in Singapore we get two seasons (hot and hotter!) so I’ve never experienced seasons before. You are really lucky to be surrounded by such beauty
Wishing you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving

The thing that gets to me Vahni, is that you are so beautiful. Really, you have such a special quality about you that gets to me every time. I think it is your radiance and what I percieve to be your depth and intelligence, your integrity and big heart. I feel you, all the way over here in Oslo.
