Fashion friday: Ruche

For five years now Trent and I have been longing for a larger piece of land to spread our wings and have enough room for animals. Room enough to easily fit a good size art studio. (Or two.) ;) Living off the grid is a dream of ours. These images from the Ruche fall 2010 look book illustrate well the lifestyle we want, clothes included! :) All you need is a hansom guy painting in the back, a few kids helping garden or playing in the mud, chickens running around, and a few baby goats and it would be even more perfect!

Yay! I love you!

...oh, and don't forget our indoor pool and gardens!

So, somebody come and buy our house, already!!! Any takers? :) It's a totally cute house (just WITHOUT the 20 or so acres like we want).

(...for those who may actually be interested, keep your eyes open for upcoming posts showing our awesome little cottage in the city).

That sounds exactly like what we dream of too! Especially the chickens, goats, gardens, and babies, and art--okay, we have the same dream ; ) We are even thinking of having chickens in our backyard this spring!

I am right with you. I have a few acres right now and LONG to have more land. I would downsize my house any day for land. NOW going off grid isn't my thing. I so wish it was but living more from the land is my dream.

That is a dream of my family as well! Although, I didn't even think about how our wardrobe needed to match our awesome farm--but of course it does! Thanks for sharing these beautiful photos and good luck selling your house.
