…consists entirely of dresses and skirts.

I’m atypical as far as archers go though. But the combination of a dress and a bow makes me feel both powerful and feminine.

I love being a contradiction.

P.S. There’s a reason I’m not a fashion blogger: I always abandon cute shoes for practical ones. The ground at the outdoor range is typically wet and muddy, so I always go with my Hunter boots. The dress was a gift from my friends at eShakti — I’m in love with their retro styles and custom sizing. I have at least ten dresses from them now. If you haven’t shopped there before, I highly recommend you go fall in love with something. If you use the code NTYRVERGER, you’ll get 20% off through March 20th.

P.P.S. For those of you who know archery, yes, my elbow is high. I’ve been having some shoulder issues lately and posing for the photo sort of hurt.

These days, nothing enters my closet unless (1) it makes me feel beautiful and (2) the fabric doesn’t get caught in my bow when I’m shooting. But once I saw these pieces from the Zuhaur Murad Haute Couture Spring 2013 collection, I knew I’d figure out the logistics of archery in these dresses.

Let’s face it: they’d put me that much closer to being an ancient Greek goddess. I can just hear Mount Olympus calling…

I was always fond of Artemis. And Athena. Oh, let’s face it: they’re all good fun.

Which Greek goddess’ character traits do you desire to embody most?
