Thursday on Monday - Tweedy

As I missed work last Thursday, but had my clothes and accessories all sorted out (even in their bags, ready to go into the backpack), I wore them for today. How's that for a lazy Monday?
My favourite tweed skirt, newish long cardi, and my good ol' red accessories. Not terribly exciting, but it's Monday after all.

The stuff:
These shoes are one of my few pre-weight-loss items that I still have. And I haven't worn this bracelet since I got it for my birthday - shameful!

Cardigan (Express, thrifted), cami (InWear), skirt (Kensie), belt (Plum), shoes (Nine West), earrings (don't recall), bracelet (gift from Mom).

  1. Nothing wrong with an already planned outfit. Especially on a Monday when I have a hard time getting out of bed. Those little touches of red, must have given you a little boost for the day ;)

  3. I love the belted long cardi and skirt combo...looks fab! And I wish I could wear tweed more often...but unfortunately, I would prob sweat to pieces in about 5 seconds. Oh well, like I said, you look great!

  4. Hi Sheila,
    Looking at the time (clock behind) if it´s 6 AM you must be proud to look so well put together...at that time I am practically comatose.
    I like the bracelet.. is it slinky-like ?
    Thank for stopping by :)

  6. Hey Sheila,

    Thanks for the computer advice, it worked. I also love the long cardi, I have one too, going to try to belt it-thanks for the idea!

  7. Sher, you are so right. I did love the bits of red - my favourite colour!

    Sal, I guess it is a cool piece. Thanks!

    Alison, thanks! Hey, happy birthday!

    watergirl, thank you so much. I am very grateful to have distinct seasons, just for variety.

    Lorena, it's actually 6 PM - I walk to and from work in my shorts and t-shirt and then I change back into my clothes to take my picture when I get home. That's why my hair is fuzzy! Compare to a Friday picture, which *is* taken in the morning. Yes, the bracelet is sort of slinky - the black part is rubber.

    Tina, thanks!

    Lesa, oh, I'm so glad! Thanks very much - I find if I don't belt a long cardi, I look like a jelly bean with legs.
