Sparkly and Weird Adidas

I dressed for dinner after work with my bestie Janet - she gets only the high quality outfits! 

I discovered that this new jacket - just purchased! - was covered in snags when I went to put it on in the morning. What the heck? 

• Jacket - FDJ; purchased here at Dots on the weekend for $31.99
• Paillette vest - Nygard, thrifted; last worn here in December 2024 with my Tweed cover skirt
• Blouse - COS, thrifted; last seen here in June with lace-print jeans
• Tulle skirt - Adidas, consignment; last worn here (2nd outfit) in May on Halston Ultrasuede Dress Day 6
• Floofy underskirt - Luc Fontaine, thrifted; last seen here under my houndstooth Kate Spade skirt earlier this month
• Sandals - Aerosoles, consignment; first worn here in July with white jeans for a trip to the periodontist
• Coat (below) - L'Atiste, consignment, Vancouver; last seen here a couple of weeks ago

Turns out, the kittens have discovered "climbing" my clothes. Nothing was unsalvageable, so I just snipped all the loops off and pulled it back into shape. Sigh. I can't leave things out!

I knew that I'd be wearing this blazer with my Weird Adidas tulle skirt. Easy choice. 

You'll notice that my tights have something down the back. 

Not just a seam, Calvin Klein! The tights are black with light grey inside - they look very grey here, but they are black. 

Back to the outfit - I wore the jacket off and on throughout the day. The back of this sparkly disco pailletted knit top is plain black, so I don't like it exposed that much. 

I layered this peplum top under it - I liked how the longer back hung down below the jacket's hem in the rear view. 

Outerwear. L had to put my coat away last night as he found two little kittens CLIMBING it.

Oh, my boys, you are very naughty! 

The stuff: 

As Janet and I were leaving Zambri's, one of the staff admired my matching blues. Even my Colquitz Blue Devils pin! 

• Scarf - Vera, vintage, Mom's
• Hat - thrifted
• Gloves - thrifted

I liked wearing my silver sandals - I felt very fashion-y!

Sparkly bling: 

You know I'll be wearing more and more as we get into the Silly Season. 

• Lucite/crystal bangle - Alexis Bittar, consignment, Sidney
• Silver S bracelet - Mexican, consignment, Sidney
• Silver/crystal ring - Soul Flower
• Silver loopy ring - Mexican, Sidney
• Brooch - Eaton's, c. 1999
• Jet/crystal necklace - Grandma J's, vintage 50s
• Earrings - thrifted

Whateley going full flop last night. You can see that one back leg is a blur - he was dreaming and it was twitching away. Probably dreaming of climbing my clothes...

You can just see Barnabas sleeping on the left.
