Humanism

This is a recent teaching outfit – I think I was lecturing on Castiglione’s Book of the Courtier and Renaissance humanism more broadly. I will definitely be wearing this to teach again, I think it’s a pretty perfect look for standing in front of 40 students and trying to hold their attention.

  skirt: found on Amazon / sweater and snood: Jacob / shoes: Spring / glasses: Clearly Contacts

The green shade of your sweater is just perfect! I'm quite interested in emerald being colour of the year but I've found that true emerald shades are difficult to come by and the colour of your sweater is exactly what I envision when I think emerald :)

I'm loving the emerald green, and the delicate pleats of the skirt.
