This Clothing Collection Is 'So Green Gables'

We’ve talked about young women trying to emulate Anne’s fashion before, but I recently stumbled across a blog that really shows how easy it can be to find old fashioned-looking clothing today that is very “Anne”.

The writer of the blog If Zombies Were Supermodels, We'd Be Them, Hilary Kearney, put together an excellent Anne-inspired clothing, hat and shoes collection, with pieces taken from a number of different online stores.

She wrote:

It's hard not to fall in love with Anne and her Green Gables. I have been in love with this story since I was a little girl. As I have gotten older, I have had a lot of fun exposing my friends to it. I used to have a housemate who, after watching the mini series, would always call out across the thrift store to me, "THIS IS SO GREEN GABLES!" and hold up an a weird dress with puff sleeves while we were shopping together. Anne's fashion is pretty dated as you can see! (The story takes place in the late 1800's). For this reason, I was a little hesitant to try and make an Anne inspired collection but I think I was able to stay true to the tone and still come up with some wearable styles. I hope you agree!

(To see our interview with Hilary, click here).

Here are a few more items that she selected:


I hope to speak with the writer of this blog soon so that she can perhaps provide us with tips on how to seek out these fashionable pieces.  We’ll keep you updated! 

In the meantime, what do you think of her collection?  Do you have your own “so Green Gables” pieces?
