More baskets and more aprons

Love these two hip chicks. Love the redhead with the braids bright red shirt partially hidden and worn with a darker red skirt (again with the multi-hued combo!) and love her friend with the huge dreadlocks, downtown sunglasses, and full-on khaki apron over her cute 40s-style daydress. And let's not forget more rubber boots, and a traditional Maine wooden garden basket.

Basket guy


I don't want to neglect men on this blog. I am so glad when men work a personal style, too--I think it's harder for guys to find a look that is all their own, because they just don't have as many options as we do. This guy is great, though. He is wearing a basket back carrier that you see a lot in these parts of Maine--I think they were used by the local Native American tribes, and then got used by hunters and fishermen, and lots of people are using them again now. Cool little hat, too. And he looks so happy.
