Mossy Tweed, Swoosh and Amber

Monday, my old foe! I had two very long meetings today, and was glad I'd worn lots of mossy-coloured armour. 

First wearing of this swooshy skirt, and I'm not keeping it. I have other better quality skirts in this EXACT colour.

• Wool/silk blazer - Julie Haus, Fall 2011 RTW Collection, thrifted; last seen here in March with my yellow Docs
• Cashmere sweater - Prada, consignment; last worn here in February with shades of gold
• Polyester skirt - Club Monaco, consignment, Sidney; purchased here for $34.98
• Leather boots - Mamzelle, thrifted; last seen here (3rd outfit) in October for shopping with my gals at Turnabout

I loved wearing this wonderful wool and silk-lined plaid and tweed blazer again. You know asymmetry is my favourite - look at that lapel!  

You can't see it at all, but I'm wearing my Prada sweater under there, and a camisole under that! 

It's a shame about the skirt, as it's very pretty and flounced around beautifully. 

I like a little more structure in my skirts, plus it doesn't have pockets. It's not rock & roll enough for my taste. 

Due to all the extra layers, I only wore a silk/cashmere scarf, a fuzzy toque and long gloves. 

I didn't need a coat! I do walk very briskly. 

The stuff: 

You might have noticed that I wore the green bangle over the gloves. So chi-chi! 

• Fuzzy toque - thrifted
• Silk/cashmere pashmina - Italy, gift from Mom
• Long leather gloves - Gestuz, consignment

Amber bling: 

The new bangle was excellent, as was the silver loopy ring.

Hey, boys, do you like your new post? 

"I accept this."      "I LOVE IT!"

I missed catching them sitting looking out the window with their tails touching - so cute! 

Aw, wish I could stay home with you!
