Literary Stylings #15: The Weight of Water

Today's look is inspired by the book, The Weight of Water, by Anita Shreve:



As I said in my post last week, I absolutely loved this book.  I love how Shreve writes and, for some reason, her descriptions of Norway reminded me of Oregon.  I was able to connect to this book in a way I wasn't able to with the other books I read.  So, I guess it makes sense that I'd be sartorially inspired by the book.

Here is my outfit:



Much of the book takes place in the North Atlantic, off the coast of Massachusetts so I thought winter white and chambray was a good way to go.

Shirt: LOFT  Cardigan: Gap  Jeans: Old Navy
Necklace: Modcloth (similar)  Boots: Born Crown (similar)


 The cardigan also works with the theme.  Gap calls it a fishnet pattern, but it also looks to me like waves:


Either way, this outfit gave me a sense of the sea that I think worked for this book.


And now it's your turn.  You can link up below!





Happy Literary Stylings!
