"......" - Sable

Out of the hundreds of Animal Crossing characters out there, I'd say that Sable Able ranks near the top as being my spirit animal. She is introverted, shy, and has fairly low self-confidence, but she is also creative, dedicated to her work, and dearly loves the people (animals?) closest to her in life. But I must say, I am nowhere near as much of a workaholic as her.


With that being said, today's outfit is based on the talented hedgehog seamstress, Sable Able. I wanted a look based on her to be cute yet reserved, and also reflect her passion for sewing.





  • Dress (Emily and Fin): I think Sable's purple gingham apron is adorable, and I wanted to find an equally adorable dress for this outfit. A sleeveless gingham dress is comfortable and conservative, and seems like just the kind of thing Sable herself would want to wear.
  • Cardigan (ChloĆ©): This short-sleeved cardigan with puffed sleeves keeps the overall look of the outfit cute and playful.
  • Belt (Dolce & Gabbana): I felt like a white belt around the waist of the purple dress would split it up nicely and show off the wearer's figure.
  • Shoes (Ajvani): Shoes with extra details like buttons or cut-outs seem like something Sable would like. As a seamstress, I am sure she appreciates all the smallest details in an article of clothing, so an extra touch like cut-out hearts would draw her attention right away.
  • Earrings (Unexpected Boutique): Continuing to think about her love of clothing, flower-shaped button earrings are another cute component to this outfit.
  • Necklace (Vintage Fashion Jewellery): I imagine a seamstress like Sable working diligently at a mannequin, draping and pinning fabric to make her designs come to life. So I liked the idea of a pair of scissors on a necklace that she could use to trim fabric. These small antique-looking ones are super cute and I think look nice with the outfit as a whole.
  • Bracelet (Rue La La): I wanted a bracelet to keep the femininity of this outfit high, and I thought a pearl bracelet would be a great choice because it won't jingle around or be bothersome while performing activities like sewing.
  • Makeup (Maybelline): With Sable's half-closed eyes, it's easy to see a pretty terracotta color on her eyelids. I wanted to keep this collage soft and light, so these pinkish nude eyeshadows will look lovely and effortless on the person who wears them.
  • Bag (Nordstrom): I loved the idea of pairing this look with a wicker sewing/picnic basket.  I imagine the bag being full of thread, yarn, knitting needles, and a collection of buttons.




Thanks again for reading, I hope you enjoyed this look!


Talk to you all soon!
