The eagle-eyed among you will have noticed that I list two pairs of shoes in the above "last seen" list - I changed to red sneakers to walk to/from Cat's place.
I was rather sweaty on top, but not like the PVC Incident of last week with the orange suit.
The trousers are indeed blue suede and they are LUXE to wear, very soft. No pockets, of course! (exasperated sigh).
Take a moment to appreciate how nicely all the plaid lines up. Several of my colleagues admired it.
The pant legs are split on the inside, and are quite long, so I have to wear a heel, a very chunky shoe or a platform.
Blue Suede Lady!
I love these big hats! Thanks and gratitude to Vix for the inspiration!
I liked the pops of red, and what a good match this suede coat is with the pants.
Accoutrements:
- Hat - thrifted, Sidney
- Silk scarf - Halston, vintage 70s, thrifted
- Wool gloves - Parkhurst
The stuff, part 1:
Bigass bold sneakers for hoofing it through our neighbourhood.
Heh, the shoes are really atrocious, aren't they? They're so ugly, but I love them!
Solid boots, good for going up and down ladders and striding about Like I Own the Place.
The stuff, part 2:
- Belt - Karen Millen, thrifted
- Necklace - Lalique, vintage 00s, vintage fair, gift from L
- Birds/red eelskin hinged bangle - vintage 80s, consignment
- Black eelskin hinged bangle - vintage 80s, thrifted
- Silver/red enamel ring - antique shop, Sidney
- Lapis lazuli ring - Wendy Brandes
- Earrings - Betsey Johnson, swap from Cat
And here I am, ready to put my coat on and dash off!
What a joyful splash of colour you are on a miserable Wednesday morning, Sheila.
ReplyDeleteThe trousers and coat are such a great match its like you're wearing a vintage trouser suit.
Thanks for the shout out! I love my giant hats, they always get all the attention! xxx
Yeah, I'm really trying to do colour as armour this week, Vix! Our sunshine has disappeared, only to be replaced by grey grey grey.
DeleteI loved how the coat/pants matched too! Must do that again!
Any time - I love mine too! Although they are not as ginormous as yours. <3
Thank you for the splash of bright colour, I could definitely do with it today!
ReplyDeleteThat is one perfect outfit, by the way. Loving both pairs of shoes, and I think I need some bigass red trainers like that (no white soles, you see :-)) xxx
Seems like that's going around, Ann! Glad to give you a lift. <3
DeleteAw, thank you so much - and yes, I know you LOATHE white soles!
