Liking Lilac Grey, and Pink Inside

I didn't realize it was Pink Shirt Day today until I was walking around town. Why is everyone wearing pink? I wondered.

I wore pink last year (here). I do support anti-bullying - I was bullied badly when I was a kid.

• Blouse - Mexx, thrifted; purchased here for $14.95
• Skirt - Talbots, consignment; last worn here in January with black and white
• Shoes - Aldo, thrifted; purchased here for $8.50

I felt good in this outfit - this is as close as I get to a plain, corporate look.

Edit: My coworker Greg took this picture of me at my desk this morning - thanks, G!

Hands on keyboard, but I always have time for people, especially my favourites.

Patterned top, plain skirt. The interest is in the details: the ginkgo leaf pattern, the fuzzy mohair of the skirt, my black fishnets.

And I am much happier with a skirt that fits me properly.

The stuff:

First wearing of these shoes, and they were a B+. I had a delivery of 21 chairs today at work, so I had a very physical day - by the time I went to the other office, I was ready for my runners again. It'll take a bit of getting used to with this uber-pointy toes, too - I tripped a couple of times on the stairs (always use the handrail, Sheila!).

And there, see? I was pink inside my shoes.

Blimey, it's bling!

Sparkly things.

• Necklace - Banana Republic, consignment
• Rings - thrifted
• Earrings - local

Our cleaner is here, so off to the bedroom to hide with Vizzini. I mean, read my book. I don't hide from the cleaner, heh.
