Spooky Critters: Spiders, Snakes and a Vest

Long-time readers will recognize my "ribcage" sweater - I always wear it at this time of year! 

It's quite spooky - there's a spider on there, as well as a face and a bird. 

• Vest - Indochino, consignment; purchased here for $16.20
• Wool sweater - Jean Paul Gaultier, vintage 90s, consignment; last seen here almost exactly a year ago in October 2024 with tulle and a different vest
• Faux croc trousers - FRNCH, thrifted; last worn here in April with leopard and paisley
• Pony-hair boots - Matisse, thrifted; last seen here a few weeks ago with a cold shoulder sweater
• Suede coat (below) - Danier Leather, consignment; last worn here in September (the day we met our kittens!)

I loved the addition of the menswear grey vest to the outfit - I still got to show off the top while it added a bit of structure (and pockets, which I've unstitched/opened). 

My faux croc pants are fun and also have enormous pockets. I am set! 

Incognito. I forgot to include my hat in my Stuff picture, so have a good gander. 

I LOVE this bright orange coat - I felt like a vivid leaf. 

The stuff: 

I like the spotty wedge booties.

The kittens were crashed on the couch with L last night. Whateley on the left was zonked right out, all that kitten energy quiet. 

Barnabas likes going under blankets, and has overheated, so is half-in, half-out and resting his head on L's hand. AWWWWW.
