Suede the Last, and Etro the First

It's a long weekend for me (vacation days - yeah!) so I'm gonna make this short. I'll be back on Sunday or Monday, and I have a surprise - I'm meeting up with another blogger! Who could it be...?

For my Friday, it's the third wear for this burgundy suede skirt.
I previously wore it here with lace and leopard, and here this past Monday (yarr!).

I'm also wearing my new-to-me Etro blazer that I picked up a couple of weekends ago (here, lots of detail shots of it) for $42.00 - not bad for high-end real designer wear made in Italy. I think it's probably from the late 90s, based on the length of the jacket.
I added my mustard ruffled shirt (last seen here with my brown lace skirt) to pull out a bit of the yellow in the jacket's lapels.

I like this longer line of jacket - it also has very nice sharp shoulders (not padded, just well-shaped). I rolled the sleeves to bring out the oyster silk.
For my shoes, my lovely Coffee Sumatra Fluevogs were perfect (worn 3 times in the March 2012 capsule, recap here).

The stuff:
Someone's legs are in the shot...
These are the most comfy shoes - I wish Fluevog still made the Coffee family!

  1. That is a gorgeous jacket - such a flattering length. The whole outfit is gorgeous! I hate to think how much money is invested in just your shoes.

    And I can't wait to find out who you're meeting! Are you going to Vancouver? I can't wait to get to Seattle and meet Joni and Bella.

    I really love those shoes, I could see them going with quite a few things and if they are comfy to boot then that is awesome!
