For day 8 of the
Belle's Wardrobe Fashion Event at
Beauty from Inside, I thought it would be fun to include a post of Belle-ish outerwear. Here are my finds thus far -
(
broadcloth cloak,
neck handkerchief)
I like the scarlett cloak a great deal- it looks almost identical to one of the cloaks that Belle was shown wearing! I think that the neck handkerchief looks like another apparel piece Belle might have worn in the cold winters in France.

(
gown jacket,
linen apron)
When I saw the gown jacket below, I couldn't help but think of Belle riding her horse through the woods. It may be for a gown, but it looks a lot like riding clothes to me. The apron is something that I could very easily see Belle wearing as well, though perhaps with a slightly lower waistline.

Readers: Can you find a modern version of each of these Belle fashions?
