While I was thinking about Julia's cold weather pieces this autumn, it was a challenge to formulate some kind of style in my mind. Julia isn't really into clothing and would probably have just tried to get by with what was already in her closet, if it was up to her. This is fun for me on one hand, because I still get to sort of pick what she wears...and on the other hand, it can be difficult to read her mind in order to pick pieces that will allow her to feel like herself + meet her preferences.

At some point during that process, we decided (excitedly!!) to go to an Oh Wonder concert. Julia joined us in revealing that it is one of her favorite bands. Josephine Vander Gucht's style started to catch my eye...so down-to-earth + playful. Knowing that Julia liked her, it seemed like the perfect inspiration. Julia already had all of her cold weather pieces, so it was only a matter of being inspired to put them together a little more adventurously.  :)

We chose a few images of the duo to inspire a few outfits made with Julia's own pieces + thought it would be fun to share them here.  :)

Here are a few other places to get inspired by Oh Wonder's Anthony + Josephine:
-listen
​-talking a little bit about style
-their music inspiration
-a peek at their home

We love you, Josephine + Anthony! Can't wait for your next album!

Love,
Julia + Jane

I find it so refreshing that your family (esp. young daughters) are so committed to the fairdare. I love the thrifting/buying fair/sewing your own clothes aspects that you post about. One of my favorite blogs! I'm so glad I found my way to you via cedar and bloom.

This is so cute! Somehow, I hadn't heard Oh Wonder before—I'm really liking their music, as well as their style (including Josephine's bangs). It's interesting that Julia isn't too interested in her clothing...my five-year-old and two-year-old are so opinionated about what they wear—even to bed. :)

Yay- I'm glad you like Oh Wonder! It's so interesting how each child is so different. It's not that Julia doesn't care what she wears (there are definitely opinions)...she just doesn't want to spend time thinking about clothing, shopping, or trying things on. :) It's very helpful in the "less" + "enough" departments!
