When layering takes over my wardrobe, and raises all sorts of questions forgotten for a season: is this pair of jeans tight enough to slip into a boot? Is it dark enough to wear it with a sweater?\u00a0In times like these, I need to remember that there has been a golden season, when I only needed to wear a simple dirndl skirt over a T-shirt to get dressed. Hell, when I didn&#8217;t quite wear shoes all the time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2445 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/carlotta.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/jupe-dirndl-chambray-lin-2.jpg?resize=525%2C786\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"786\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/carlotta.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/jupe-dirndl-chambray-lin-2.jpg?resize=684%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 684w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/carlotta.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/jupe-dirndl-chambray-lin-2.jpg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/carlotta.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/jupe-dirndl-chambray-lin-2.jpg?resize=768%2C1149&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/carlotta.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/jupe-dirndl-chambray-lin-2.jpg?w=1069&amp;ssl=1 1069w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/>Like a keepsake, this typical summer outfit reminds me of summer days, when the time is slowing down, with terraces warming in the sun, long hair tickling bare backs, and long readings in the grass, when\u00a0you end up with the grass printed on your elbow. And cats, tickling your legs with their whiskers, now that summer has brought you into their domain. I admit that&#8217;s a bit far-fetched to talk about a dirndl skirt that I must confess, I think is particularly well-made, but that is\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.carlottastermaria.fr\/blog\/en\/pink-plaid-2-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">really nothing out of the ordinary<\/a>. But without all the things we associate them with, our clothes, I must admit, would be nothing more than mere fabric.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2448\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/carlotta.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/jupe-dirndl-chambray-lin-5.jpg?resize=398%2C595\" alt=\"\" width=\"398\" height=\"595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/carlotta.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/jupe-dirndl-chambray-lin-5.jpg?w=398&amp;ssl=1 398w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/carlotta.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/jupe-dirndl-chambray-lin-5.jpg?resize=201%2C300&amp;ssl=1 201w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 398px) 100vw, 398px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Afternoon\u00a0pictures are by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.noctvrna.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Noctvrna<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, that&#8217;s official: fall is here.
