Scarlet Darkness on the Windswept Moors

Scarlet Darkness Women Victorian Maxi Skirt Vintage High Waist A Line Skirt
Another day on the windswept moors or rather the mountain top.  The first day of the new year brought us freezing temperatures and a nice dusting of snow.  The winter woods were beautiful but as soon as it all melted away, the fields looked grayer and bleaker than ever.

Everything is sleeping now under heavy gray winter blankets, but I'm still awake and walking in the stillness.  I miss all the busy rustlings and scurryings of the living things and the bright colors of the woods and sky.  And when the wind howls and grieves it's only saying what I'm thinking.

So, a somber skirt feels more appropriate for today.  A little tip of my cap to Ms. Jane Eyre with the help of Scarlet Darkness for providing this lovely Victorian High Waist A Line Skirt. (keep reading for a promo code!)  I'm wearing an authentic antique chemise and petticoat underneath to keep me warm on this mid winter day.

I love these skirts in any season, but in the winter they are a little nearer and dearer to my heart.  I love the length and the elastic back with the adjustable corset ties so that I can layer up or go without and always be comfortable.
And, of course, they're just perfect for a day like today.  I don't rush toward labeling things, but if I had to put a label on this style, I'd call this one a Dark Cottage Core.  Jane Austen's heroines would wear the blue stripes (you can see that post here), but this skirt is all for the Bronte sisters.

This skirt has a side zipper too and is so comfortable that it's now a staple in my winter wardrove with a nice lace blouse, high collar of course!, and a sweater to keep warm.  I love the style and the comfort.
