Pink Leopard Shirt Day, Black Tulip

Today was Pink Shirt Day, a day to stand up against bullying. It's something I support, so I promote it at work. Of course, I have to be the pinkest! 
I was PANK last year (and wiped out here). 

  • Wool/cashmere jacket - Proportion Petite by Conrad C, thrifted; first seen here in a PANK "suit" in November 2024
  • Mesh tee - Culture, consignment; last worn here in September 2024 under my parachute dress
  • Suede skirt - Guillaume, vintage 00s, consignment, Powell River; last seen here (3rd outfit) in October 2024 with blues and a now-gone blouse
  • Boots - Biblio Austen, Fluevog; last worn here in November 2024 in an avian-influenced outfit
  • Sleeveless coat (below) - Only, thrifted; last seen here a week ago

It was a "white" day today - the sun was out, but we didn't really have blue sky. 
These are my favourite days. The trees were full of birds on my walk to work - I saw tiny juncos, giant seagulls, crows and a big surprise! A Cooper's hawk only a block from town - it was lurking around with a bunch of crows staring at it. 

Everything in this outfit has already been worn this season, but I actually don't have that many pink tops. 
This pink jacket was lovely in the office, nice and warm with big pockets. 

I look so profesh! I ended up rolling the sleeves up for a bit more attitude. 
The skirt was excellent - I have always liked this tulip shape and it's a very soft suede. 

I took the jacket off briefly after doing the stairs on the way in. Sweaty! 
A missed belt opportunity! 

I could have belted the blazer. 
I hear that's a thing again. *snort*

Too warm for a full coat.
Some of the plum trees are starting to bloom - spring is on the way! 

Accoutrements: 
We're in that shoulder season now - Leather Weather! - where I'll be going back to silk scarves instead of fur and wooly ones. 

  • Silk scarf - Roberto Cavalli, thrifted, Vancouver
  • Leather gloves - Roeckl, consignment

The stuff: 
Not a chance of rain today, so I walked to and from work in these velvet and leather beauties.

Silver bling: 
I'd actually pulled another bracelet out but then I checked my "new" area and there's my new silver mesh cuff. Oh, yeah! 

  • Necklace - Myka, thrifted
  • Silver/crystal ring - Soul Flower
  • Silver chain ring - Mexican, consignment
  • Umbrella brooch - vintage mall, gift from L
  • Feather brooch - Boucher, vintage 60s, thrifted
  • Silver S bracelet - Mexican, consignment, Sidney
  • Silver links bracelet - Mexican, consignment; purchased here for $70.00
  • Silver earrings - Israeli, consignment

Sending you all cool ocean breezes and hawk sightings!
