ACCESSORIES! REVISITING BLUE MAJOR ELLE BY MARIJAH BAC CAM

Accessories! Revisiting Blue Major Elle by Marijah Bac Cam

July 23, 2020

Yesterday, she expanded her initial 8-piece wardrobe to a 16-piece 4 by 4 Wardrobe, since she and her sweetheart are going to be staying up at her sister-in-law's B&B for a few weeks...

Her inspiration?

Her clothes are all good to go - this is what she's taking (or what's already there...):

This absolutely charming and intelligent book has no text, so it's appropriate for any child (and a lot of adults!) anywhere in the world... What a brilliant inspiration!   The scarves in her narrowed-down shopping were these:
