Reverse It - Pink Woolly, Grey Tweed and Pointy Pony

In a stunning turn of events, I'm wearing the reverse of what I wore yesterday! 
This is how I wanted to re-style this "slashed" sweater after being unhappy with it on my first wearing.

  • Shirt - Eddie Bauer, consignment; last worn here in January for New Year's Eve
  • Sweater - MO & Co., thrifted; first worn here in January with leopard and black velvet
  • Wool trousers - PartTwo, thrifted; last seen here in December 2024 with pink bookends
  • Booties - Matisse, thrifted; first worn here in December 2024 with stripes
  • Cashmere/wool coat (below) - Sarmite Wearable Art, consignment; last seen here in January

I gave it good brushing with Mom's old vintage 1970s lint brush (yes, I still have it!) and that took most of the little pink woolly "worms" off. It didn't make any new pills or balls on this outing, so perhaps we've resolved that?
I layered my plain white shirt underneath, letting the bits of white peek out at cuffs, hem, shoulder and collar. I've turned on my "look for a white shirt" radar, as the pits on this shirt are getting dark and stained. 

It's a YES, overall. I like this layering. 
On the bottom we have the elastic waisted, pocketed, lined, wool tweed trousers.

That's a lot of adjectives.
They were fine with this heel in the office - I was careful on the stairs. Danger Pants! (Remember these??).

Outerwear. It was only -1 this morning, practically a heat-wave! 
It was even warmer on the walk home. 

Incognito. I have to admit, I welcome the return of Incognito Season. 
I like watching people. 

Accoutrements: 
Warm and snuggly. 

  • Toque - gift from Tammy
  • Brooch - Monet, vintage 80s, thrifted
  • Fur scarf - thrifted
  • Leather gloves - Roeckl, consignment

The stuff: 
I liked these pointy boots with the wide-legged pants. I stroked the pony-hair a few times. 

Alien bling: 
"I'm looking at you!"


I liked how this necklace added a "messy" element to the outfit.

  • Necklace - All Saints, gift from Dominique
  • Crystal/silver ring - Uffizi Gallery gift shop, Florence
  • Silver/crystal ring - Soul Flower
  • Earrings - thrifted
