Of course, I was okay until the A/C came on and then I was glad to have picked up this lovely cashmere cardigan a couple of weekends ago:
It's the colour of a Siamese cat. And gee, look who's on the label:
Not "our" Wendy B, of course, but isn't that hilarious? Naturally, her name would be on quality goods, though. This was consignment for $24.99.The stuff:
The shoes are new-to-me and are actually brand new Chinese Laundry! They even still had the Winners label stuck to the bottom! And only $16.99 - steal! It's totally worth it to troll second-hand and consignment stores for little gems like these. I love the tortoise shell.

The necklace is new and I haven't worn it before - it's a little bit overkill with the pearls, but since when am I subtle? Ha! I think not. The earrings are from my wedding - I think it's time to get some new pearl studs (really bigass ones).
Cardigan (Wendy B, consignment), blouse (I.N.C., consignment), suit skirt (Kenzie), shoes (Chinese Laundry, consignment), necklace (Aldo Accessories), earrings (c. 1996?).
Bwah!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove those shoes!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fab find, they are awesome,a glad you are able to be back in your kickazz heels!
Beautiful print on that blouse!
ReplyDeleteYes, that darn air conditioning is annoying - they keep cranking it up in my building when it gets hot. I bring cardigans to work, but some of the time it's been getting so cold that I've been throwing a polar fleece on top of the cardigan too so I won't shiver too bad at my desk. It's so bizarre to be bundled up inside when it's so hot out.
You look a real treat!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that funny! Pretty grey/blue shirt. Looks like our skies here.
ReplyDeleteThrifting cashmere feels so good, doesn't it? And it's often better quality than new!
ReplyDeleteThose shoes are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteGreat find!!
ReplyDeleteIt's so hot here...I can't even remember the cold! That pearl necklace is so lovely!
ReplyDeleteHee, Wendy!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Erin - and check it out, Chinese Laundry found me!
Kari, thanks! It was a great consignment find. Oh, I know! The A/C is nuts in our building too.
Thanks, Mervat!
Thanks, Sher - and blue/grey skies sound good to me.
Sal, it does...and yeah, it's the good stuff. So soft.
Thanks, MM.
Chinese Laundry - they are! I love your brand!
Aw, poor Erica! It's a cool necklace - I had to have it.
I agree, Alison - I am all about over the top, haha! Pearl studs have been added to my shopping list.
ReplyDeletelol. i'm loving the print on that blouse. And i like your necklace, definitely not overkill at least not to me
ReplyDeleteThanks, Diane! I don't know how much I'll be able to wear the necklace for work, but I'm sure it will be good with other outfits.
