Rachael Caringella | Talk2TheTrees: Thursday Threads

I haven't been on much again this week.

Each time I think, I'll blog every day! But then I stay up way too late, and then don't get around to posting or thinking about posting until like 2am, but by then I'm halfway through a project or up to my elbows in paint. This week I've been trying to focus on illustrations, but then other projects come up.

I'm very scattered.

I've had a fabulous week that I will tell you more about tomorrow.

Today I'm focusing a lot of getting some illustrations done.

I get to illustrate a vampire book.

And I'm excited. I get to use lots of reds. Red is one of my favorite colors.

It's actually a story about Little Red Riding Hood, but she's a vampire.

It's awesome.

So, in honor of Little Red Riding Hood, I'm posting a quick outfit photo including a red hood before I get to work on illustrating!

This dress is so warm and comfortable. I love the grey, and the fabulous slit going up the side.

But, it was cold the day these were taken. I wasn't sure what kind of coat or sweater to pair with a long dress! So I went with red, since it's one of my favorites.. And I chose a longer sweater.

I actually love the way it looked. And of course I tied it all together with a thrifted scarf.
