Book Style: A Christmas Carol

A Christmas Carol


A Christmas Carol Kids


Merry Christmas! In today's Book Style I went with the ultimate Christmas tale: A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. On top we have a cozy, grownup outfit based of off this gorgeous version illustrated by P. J. Lynch. As much as I love bright colors, this neutral palette is just as cozy as the alternative featured below with two fun and bright kids outfits based off of the BabyLit color primer version of A Christmas Carol by Jennifer Adams.

Book Style: A Tale Of Two Cities

A Tale Of Two Cities


A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens is quite honestly the only (non-modern) Classic I ever remember liking. Probably because it sated my high school Francophilia and had some legit history going on with the whole French Revolution thing. I remember being oddly invested in the story which never happened (or happens still) with Dickens. I chose lots of nods to Paris and London with this weekend-chic outfit. Who says you have to look like a schlub to run Saturday errands? Also, those of you who have read the book will get the earrings' reference to the blue eyes.
