Weekend Wardrobe: Colors from Nature II Travel Wardrobe


I have already created one wardrobe post based on a photo taken on our property, and now it is time for another.  Sometimes you can find the most colorful examples of nature just by looking down.  We have had a lot of rain this year, which brought out an amazing array of fungi, including the bright red toadstool shown above that I photographed in our yard.  Using Adobe Color Wheel, I came up with a mushroom-themed color scheme to use for a late summer week-long travel wardrobe:


The ideal location for this trip would be a pleasantly cool and shady forest within driving distance.  Once there, one could walk through the woods at a leisurely pace every day, photographing nature's colorful abundance of mushrooms while accompanied by a beloved Scottie dog (the other whimsical theme I chose for this wardrobe)!

Here is the wardrobe to wear in transit:

And here are the remaining items to pack for at least a week's worth of nature hiking and other casual activities (don't forget to bring your doggie's accessories as well!):

When I was younger I used to travel with my dogs all the time, but I have to admit I have not done so in years.  Maybe it is time to plan a trip with our pups this fall.  They may not be Scottish terriers, but we think they are just as adorable, and they deserve a fun outdoor adventure!
