Another short week for me! As is my wont, I take a couple of days off around L's birthday to hang out and be merry with him. I am looking forward to Thursday, as we are going to see an art opening that our friend Elaine is in, as well as do dinner with a bunch of friends. Things to look forward to...
I nearly forgot about this blue satin blouse that I bought for $16.98 at the beginning of the month (here). We've been having typical spring weather (rain, wind, cloudy, sunny...just wait 10 minutes and it changes), so I ventured to wear long sleeves (plus I'm still spotted, so wanted to cover them up).I wore this green tweed flower-embellished skirt three times in the May 2012 capsule (recap here), although I had to actually look it up in my handy-dandy spreadsheets to double-check. I must be getting old...
Added pops of burgundy with the nice leather obi.
This skirt doesn't have a slit, so it's tricky to walk in.
The stuff:
My very well-loved Senscha Teapots, last seen here with zebra stripes.
Sparkly things:
My Foxy necklace is starting to wear out. The chain has lost most of its gold colour, but I do still like the pendant. Maybe I'll just remove it from the chain?
My Wendy Brandes rings for extra-super-powers! They worked - I kicked butt at the gym tonight!
Blouse (Melanie Lynne, consignment), cami (Reitman's), skirt (mystery brand, thrifted), shoes (Senscha Teapots, Fluevogs), belt (locally-made), necklace (Foxy), lapis lazuli ring/Fulvia ring (Wendy Brandes).
Your teapots look like they're holding up really well. Sounds like you've got some major fun planned.
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed that you have a spreadsheet and can look up what you wore so long ago. I love the shoes--I keep looking for a good pair of thrifted t-straps. So far they have eluded me.
ReplyDeleteI really like the blue satin paired with the olive green skirt. The contrast in color and texture makes for an interesting (in a good way) outfit!
ReplyDeleteWoohoo for good gym days! I had one too!
ReplyDeleteReally like the burgundy, blue and green together :)
ReplyDeleteHope L has a lovely birthday!
Wow! I love the azure top with your purple glasses and the burgundy shoes/obi. Such a pretty jewel tone.
ReplyDeleteAm I slow to realize that you always wow me with your shoe choices?
ReplyDeleteLove too many of them- and how you are good at mixing up colors and proportions- I think I'm due to play with a long skirt- inspired by Vix and you.
Cobalt blue, olive, and burgundy--anothe Sheila color combo for my inspiration files!!
ReplyDeletelove this outfit!!
Ślicznie wyglądasz a buty i spódnica są cudne:)))Pozdrawiam serdecznie
ReplyDeleteYour plans with L sound fun, I am great believer in Birthday Fuss. Lovely jewel colours in this outfit...
ReplyDeleteI like how you choose clothes that have some sort of art through prints, embroidery etc
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing in your blue satin blouse and pairs well with the skirt. I like the feel of satin but it is difficult pull off with outfits. Do you get any peeking between the buttons on the chest line. It seems a hot style of shirt
ReplyDeleteThat blouse looks amazing. Like you hot shiny blouse paired with the skirt. satin is so hard to pull off.
