Dragonscale Regret-Me-Not

No time like the present to get in a wearing of my last regret-me-not! 
I'm boggled that I put this gorgeous skirt into Limbo. 

  • Linen blazer - H&M, thrifted; last seen here in August 2025 with this same red top for a Mom-Day at Rithet's Bog
  • Sleeveless top - Anne Klein, thrifted; last worn here in December 2025 under an artsy cardigan
  • Silk skirt - Strawberry Jill, thrifted; last seen here in January with pink and olive
  • Shoes - Seychelles, consignment; last worn here (2nd outfit) in June 2025 for a haircut

A lovely Castle view today. 
The trees are nearly in full leaf. 

Most of my regret-me-nots eventually end up back in Limbo, but I think this one's a keeper. 
I paired it with red and a light linen blazer. I felt very profesh! 

I resolved to name the skirt the Koi skirt, but nope, my brain insists on calling it Dragonscale. 
Such a work of art! 

Oops, I forgot to show you the back of the blazer. 
I've blown the colour out a bit so you can see the detail. 

Without the jacket - I took it off in the morning after I huffed up the stairs. 
I wore the blazer all day once I'd cooled down, though. 

Incognito. 
This is such a nice blazer - I've only worn it a couple of times, but the quality is amazing. I'm always shocked that it's H&M. It must be OLD H&M - can you imagine a linen blazer with pockets and back detail? It even has wee shoulder pads! 

The stuff: 
This silk scarf works really well in my hair and keeps it from looking like a rat's nest after my walk.  

  • Silk scarf - Lanvin, vintage, thrifted

Turquoise bling: 
I enjoyed this mix of colours, all driven by the multi-stone bracelet (a treasure). 

  • Ladybug brooch - consignment
  • Semi-precious stone/silver bracelet - Salt Spring Island, c. 1998?, gift from L 
  • Hinged bird eelskin bangle - vintage 80s, consignment
  • Stone turquoise bracelet - thrifted, Sidney
  • Silver/turquoise rings - consignment
  • Gold-tone/turquoise ring - consignment
  • Ear-balls - Sziska, thrifted, Sidney

Kitties on the deck! 
"You could stay with us."


Sitting with my boys all day? I totally would if I could. 
"I love this bench!"

Barnabas is such a sun-lover! 

I'll be back tomorrow with Mom-Day! See you soon.
