Black and White and Brown

I have a very busy week ahead, but I'm trying to just focus on one thing at a time, like getting dressed.

We had a big meeting today (that I was part of) so I thought I'd attempt to look somewhat professional for the new people. 

I also wanted to wear this jacket again, plus the new pailletted tank. And the black skirt had a backwards hanger! Win! 

• Jacket - FDJ; first seen here in November 2025 with more sequins and a tulle Adidas skirt
• Paillette tank top - Esqualo, NWT, thrifted, Powell River; purchased here for $3.00
• T-shirt - Denver Hayes, thrifted; last worn here (2nd outfit) layered under a dress for our Sidney shop in November 2025
• Leather/mix skirt - Danier Leather, thrifted; last seen here in June 2025 with red and orange and floral shoes
• Booties - Matisse, thrifted; last worn here (2nd outfit) in December 2025 with sequins and "roadkill" for brunch
• Leather trenchcoat (below) - vintage 70s, thrifted; last seen here in December 2025

I liked the jacket, but the brown velour/paillettes did not ring my bell. It was far too long - it's folded under here and tucked into the waistband of my skirt here.

It's also really itchy in the armpit area, which led me to a white t-shirt under it...which led to wearing a tie over the t-shirt - and a necklace over that! I bet you thought I had a collared shirt on. 

Trenched up.  

Rain rain rain. Also, I have a million layers around my torso. 

The stuff: 

I liked the speckled shoes with the look - they went with the stripe on the jacket and the peek of the while tee. 

• Hat - Babaton, consignment
• Silk scarf - fake Louis (Lewis!) Vuitton, thrifted
• Studded leather gloves - Danier Leather

Amber bling: 

Comforting warmth. 

• Large amber/silver bracelet - consignment
• Small amber/silver bracelet - consignment, Powell River
• Giant amber/silver ring - consignment
• Silver/amber thumb ring - consignment

Oops, forgot the silk tie! 

I wore this tied around my bare neck, with the necklace layered over the knot.

Do...what?
