Susan, Queen in Narnia // Inspired by Film Day 6 Fantasy and Day 7 Favorite Movie

Photos: Pinterest
Ever since I first read the Chronicles of Narnia series when I was in elementary school, I've wanted to be a queen in Narnia. Disney's 2005 The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe is my favorite fantasy film and my favorite movie all-around (of course those of you who read my Day 1 post know that I don't have many to pick from. Bit of trivia: This is one of only two films that I've seen in theaters!).

 I was inspired by Susan Pevensie's battle attire and armor in Prince Caspian and the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. The brown shades, the V-neck, and leather-look belt and necklace were all pulled from her outfits. I don't know if the overall look is that reminiscent of Susan, but it looks fantastical, maybe fairy-like, in its own way.

Much thanks to Ashley at Bramblewood Fashion for hosting this fashion link-up. I had a lot of fun. It helped me to find four or five new outfit combinations that I've never tried before, which is saying something, since I don't have that many clothes, and I already consider myself pretty good at mixing and matching. Actively seeking out inspiration can do amazing things for your creativity!

    1. I would have interpreted Susan's coronation gown if I'd had anything that came anywhere near to resembling it!
